one_klump Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Paper Starships Everyone who likes spaceships and paper models should check out this site, it has tons of ships from Babylon 5, Homeworld, Star Trek, Starwars, and even one from Wing Commander. Most of the ships are from the PC game Homeworld, but even so, they are all free to download. I started on one today ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a starship? yeah, but the death star isn't either and it's still on there. Same goes for the tie interceptor and tie fighter.

gnollman Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 what's this .rar extension on the download files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akilae Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 (edited) .rar = compressed file, get WinRAR to decompress. Not a paper starship, but I always thought this was very cool: http://aliens.humlak.cz/aliens/Aliens_papi...rcraft/m41.html The M41 pulse rifle from Aliens, complete with removeable magazine, sliding foregrip for grenade launcher, and even comes with grenades. Favourite Private Hudson quote not included Site also carries link to WinRAR if anybody doesn't want to search for it. EDIT: Spelling.

Uxi Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Nice. Are they all to a common scale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one_klump Posted June 13, 2004 Author Share Posted June 13, 2004 Common scale? lol, no, that would put a model of one of the HW carriers or Battlecruisers at several feet long. However, you can make the image bigger or smaller before you print it using Photoshop or somthing like it. BTW, I did see a pic of the Vaygr Battlecrusier on the site, it looked to be about 2 feet long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radd Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 I just wish they weren't in PDF format, it's making it more difficult to edit the things than need be. I want to make the Hiig ships in my colours, with my logos all over them if I'm going to bother printing them out and putting them together. Oh, and just to be certain, before I waste materials, anyone ever tried printing stuff like these on cardstock to make them more sturdy? Does that work as well as I would presume it would?

Radd Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Ok, I've picked apart the PDF and I'm editing my very own Hiig Battlecruiser. I'm going to print it out on card stock so it's sturdier, and I'll post pictures if I manage to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyryder Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Cardstock is the only way to go. "paper" model is a bit of a misnomer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxer Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 I was actually there when Paper starships was formed. It's home was on the Relic message boards for Homeworld. My name is Ceade over there and I haven't visited it in quite a while... I had plans origionally for a HW minis game that would have used these paper starships.

kanata67 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Cardstock is the only way to go. "paper" model is a bit of a misnomer. 161386[/snapback] soooooo many pop-ups remember... paper plans can be scaled and made of more than just paper. PVC and plywood for example. Depending on how much pvc I can scavege from work and what I have left over from my irrigation system I kinda want to build an upsacled monster with pvc potato gun cannons to harass the neighbors.

Kin Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 (edited) Pssst... Get "pepakura viewer". No manual, just build using the questionmark icon button to show the corresponding flap on the model preview (surface is indicated with red). Make sure your printers margin is set to 0mm to print to the max. edge of the paper as possible (if your printer supports that). If some parts don't fit, its excess you can cut away with ease. I haven't build mine yet. Enjoy! zipped PDO file here Edited February 5, 2006 by Kin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
