So for those not familiar with pepkura its a free program that lets you print .PDO files and make models of all sorts out of paper or card.

I do this for a few different models and today whilst I was looking for stuff I stumbled across these jems

daishi.elementfx.com/index.php?open=papercraft

You have to scroll past the pretty impressive skyrim dragon to see what I'm on about, but I dont want to spoil the surprise.
I plan on giving one of them a try out to make.

Pretty sweet actually, but yeah I'd have to agree with Coredump on that one... would be ridiculous to put together.

But that dragon is just one piece of paper with a couple of cuts in it.

That HT is a bazillion different pieces. Each small spike seems to be a separate piece, and the arms, and the weapons, etc etc.

Someone with the program should download it just to tell us how many different pieces it is.

A lot of scalpel work needed there! Looks amazing though.
