Optimus Prime Papercraft

This model was downloaded from paper-replika.com, designed by Julius Perdana. Consist of 5 released parts, and i ve made 4 of them(I hope i can make the fifth in couple weeks later). They are Head and Part 2a-2c. I made this Optimus long time ago, and i m not really satisfied with the result. Couple weeks ago i made an amelioration of my Optimus Prime. It is impossible for me to make another Optimus!!It needs many papers and the most important thing was, it will spent my time a lot...

The amelioration was started with the body, since the color is not printed correctly, i painted it with water based color paint. It was so difficult (with my lack painting ability) and inefficent thing, but i think i ve made it :). I strengthtened the body by adding some rolled and thick paper. I need my Optimus stand for many years later.

The body was ameliorated, but how was the head?It was immposible to repair my Optimus's head. I made a lot of mistakes when i built the head, so i made the new one. Fully painted, and believe it or not, the new one is "limited waterproof". I think combination of water based color paint and clear aerosol spray make it.

Now you can compare, my old Optimus Prime Papercraft and the new one....

This is my second edition M1A1 Abrams papercraft. It will be more detail, better geometries, and better color. Even i do my best, my First M1A1 Abrams papercraft was unsatisfying. By the time goes on, i ve made more and more models so that i decided that if i built new abrams for this time, it will be better than the first one. this model is no color version. It means that you need some color paper, if you dont want a white Abrams. I used 160 gsm brown, dark brown, and black color papers. I will say that i prefer thicker paper, maybe 190-210 gsm. But it subjectively depends on you. Everyone has their own methods.
This model had been tested and all primary parts are fully assambled. By the way I m adding extra jerrycan in the file.
