i believe this has already been posted a while ago... there's another version of this - uncolored that is

Yep! I think it's in the old forum somewhere.

It certainly looks nice to say the least.

I don't think it's technically origami since, IIRC, origami is specifically the decorative art of folding paper, whereas these are commonly known as papercraft, which uses folded, cut, glued and taped paper to make an object.

Actualy in Japan there is a type of model thats realy popular called paper models. Theres also a few Mobile Suit paper models.

Not just in Japan, but all over the world. There's some guy in Europe who makes the best Colonial Marines (from Aliens) equipment. Also most papercraft artists will allow their patterns and designs to be used for free.

The Zentraidi pod origami is COOL! The only part I hate is this statement,

"All Zentraedi, Macross. and Robotech materials are copyright @ Harmony Gold.

Curse you HG! :angry:

Wow! they even have a M41-A pulse rifle!!

Does anyone have any hardcore experience making paper models? I have questions like how do you paint them. I'm guessing you need to use a special primer/sealer to keep the Acrylics from "melting"/sagging the paper. I'd hate to make a Regult and have it crumple, or the glue fall apart.

I work in a print room, I could freekin make a room full of these things :)

be sure to use a heavy card stock and for better result use a scribber.
