I was toying with the idea of a Thoth, but it's being difficult. Unlike the Satis (Which Maeg tweaked for me, so I cannot even take credit for that)

on a only slightly related not, this thing would rock as a UV mapping aid, the way it lays things out ensures uniform density.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Bob, you should make the tabs a different color so its easier to see.  And when its in pieces like that....I can't figure out what it is....quite.  Nephalim? Azrael?....I'm not good at figuring out......

NOW I see it!!!  Good point about the tabs too...

So if I print that out, I'll be able to cut it up, and make a Basilisk from it, in theory, right?

Okay, well keep the tabs white and change the background color then.

[color=66ff00]No need, just make a copy of the layout with white tabs and white foldlines, you don't even need to print it out, just use it for reference. :nod:

BTW nice work Bob. :yes:

[color=66ff00]It would be an utter ***** to build. You'd have to make it very large to fit the detail in.

hey, what kind of glue are you using? I've picked up some 148g/m^2 cover stock, printed out a Hermes, found out that the tabs it gave me aren't on important seams (like holding the roof on? :rolleyes: ), so i printed the orion (plus the last sheet on regular computer paper), and am about to start cutting... I tried the hermes with a glue stick, and it did work, but not very well considering how small the tabs were... Should i pick up some super-glue, or rubber cement, or 2-tonne epoxy?

I'd think that your standard Elmer's glue would work best, no?

I remember mentioning this concept to the community a while ago...I needed the Herc and Fenris models.  Didn't seem to be much interest back then...times change.

You should submit your models to Paper Starships, a website that started with Homeworld paper models and is slowly expanding to include other universes as well.

I have sence improved on my Basilisk BTW, not sure what sort of glue I should be useing my self, was useing two sided tape with some good effect, but details (like the nose or the laser pods on the front of the engines) don't seem to work well with the tape method, and I've only been able to print in black and white, poorly, on normal laser printer paper. it is enough to test it out though.

this new version is bigger, higher resolution, and at least somewhat easier to assemble. I made some minor geometry changes to allow for a doable paper model, most of the changes should be so small you would only see them if you were looking for them, with the origonal model on the screen, and had some hints.
