Description
Great outdoor pic of my two best papercrafts to date.Edit: Woah, logged in today and just had a ridiculous amount of messages and found the cause to be I got a DD! Awesome! I can't thank everyone for all their very kind words individually so...thanks to all! I can answer some of the more specific questions that came up though:
Size: Mario is 40cm tall and Luigi is 50cm
Templates: Mario can be found here [link] and Luigi here [link] A lot of the credit goes to Ignatius of the nintendopapercraft forums for editing and designing these fine models...
Instructions: I intended to make instructions for Mario and Luigi but never really got around to it and now I'm too swamped in projects to find the time for them. Let me say they're not easy but if anyone wants to attempt them I'd be happy to help them with any questions they might have.

I love how the framing and perspective makes it such that it's really hard to judge the real scale. I have the sense that these are actually life-size models of Mario and Luigi. (:

Woww, that's really good. Must have taken a lot of time and concentration to complete. They're so neat and precise. It's interesting too because the facets are like the polygons they use to render game models, though nowadays they're not so obvious. Were the templates designed from scratch? They look so much like the official models, kudos to the people who made them.

Hey, what kind of paper would you recommend using when making a papercraft? D:
Gosh, they look perfect! And the way you took the picture, it almost looks like they're towering over the landscape. xDD

TouchFuzzyGetDizzy In reply to ponipop [2010-07-04 04:32:21 +0000 UTC]
Thank you! The type of paper is really preference. Cardstock will give you a strong model that you can pick up but the thickness will show on the edges of the parts. Thinner paper makes for a better looking model but it will be fragile and light shines through (so the tabs are visible). I use cardstock.
