Awesome Papercraft

Taking miniaturization to the extreme, Sonicscape jun’s tiny papercraft models of various gadgets are a sight to behold; he’s even made an iPhone down to the Apple packaging.

Those intrepid papercrafters continue to amaze us, this time with a beautifully detailed version of our favorite astromech droid; R2-D2 comes complete with rotating head and legs.

Spacecraft meets papercraft with this Space Origami set, which includes 120 sheets of folding paper and a 32 page book with instructions for rockets, shuttles and astronauts.

The YT-1300 that made the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs is also the lightest, with this awesome papercraft version of the famed Millenium Falcon; get the full instructions here.

Marshall Alexander is well known for his papercraft creations; Series 3 of his FoldSkool Heroes is made for old-school gamers, with cutesy Atari, Pong, and Commodore robots.

We thought HAL 9000 was pretty cool, but this papercraft model of Hellboy’s Good Samaritan is ridiculously detailed, down to the hammer, cylinder and bullets. Thanks, Matthew!

Dave, let me sing dance for you: papercraft isn’t usually our thing, but Shunichi Makin’s HAL 9000 templates not only look good but feature fairly complex legs that can swivel and kick.
