So after numerous starts and stops I finished the Maelstrom. For non-Eve players, this is a battleship from the MMO Eve Online. It came to just under 4 feet in length. It took maybe 6 months or so to make. Granted that is after putting the project on hold multiple times. The solar sails...

The Kestrel was printed out over time at my work's color laser printer, so I don't really have any sort of record. 33 pages x2 plus a few reprints.... I am not good at math but probably a lot of toner there. :oops: As for the Naglfar, when I extracted it and ran it through Pepakura, it...

Good point. I actually looked into a Naglfar a while ago. To get the detail I would want, it would stand about 6 feet tall. I think my biggest issue is starting to be lack of adequate workspace.

I think it will be a battleship next. baby steps.... baby steps...

Well after about 3 months I have finally finished my Kestrel. :mrgreen: No thanks to real life distracts and a small detour into Warhammer Online when that came out. It's done now. On to the Maelstrom!! Here is the flikr gallery...

Wow That is seriously great work. Nice job! ///whats TTA? /duck

I use illustration pens to detail the edges usually.

I decided to take a break from spaceships while I decided what to work on next and finally put together the ED209 kit I had been saving for a while. It is standing on the unfolded Caldari Kestrel I plan on making next. Fun kit. Kudos to the person who designed it. Seems to be the only ED209...

I just tested it and was able to download and extract it.

It means we are being held down by the Man. Probably just means they need time to make sure there is no copyright infringement or that I didn't upload pr0n or something. I imagine the mods will put it in the Eve online folder when it is approved.

It's up! http://www.zealot.com/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=770 Enjoy! PS. I am new to the uploading page. Mods, let me know if I put it in the wrong place. Thanks!

This was my first attempt at extracting a model straight form the game and then unfolding it in Pep. I have made two others (Apocalypse and a Heron) from some previously posted kits. As far as I know, this is the only paper Firetail in existence. It's a rare drop. :) Thanks for the...

This is a Minmatar Republic fleet issue Firetail frigate from Eve online. Was busy with some other stuff (playing Eve for the first time mostly) and was building this on the side. Eve is an interesting game, but I am finding I like it more for the ships than the gameplay. Makes for good...

Is there a good usable .3ds of that floating around somewhere? I have tried a few online but they all have mapping issues. I'd like to try it out if I could come across a good file to start from scratch on.

The unfolding is a mess, frankly. That's why I am waiting to make sure they actually work until I post them. I remember seeing your pep unfolds a while back, but I am learning that it is almost easier for me if I clean up the unfold myself before assembly since that gives me a better idea of...
