bah. Who wants a paper Metal Gear.
I'd rather have a real one myself.

I love the concept, but I just can't see doing much with it myself. Now, if I could just get ahold of the Rex mesh that the guys on LWG made... :D

Well, I tried a couple of weeks ago, rather half-heartedly I'll admit, but I tried to cook up a couple of FS2 card models using Pepakura(sp?).  May try again now that I've got my new system up and running.

[color=66ff00]Tried it myself but I couldn't get the textures to play nice. I used Gmax and chilliskinner. Unfortunately converting using just about everything I've tried corrupts either the mesh or the texture coords.
