Awesome.

Why did you choose to make a Galatea and not a Bastion?

Because the Galatea was the most beloved and iconic ship in all of FreeSpace. Argue all you want, but you're wrong.

How long did that beast take to make. Oh and I've got a challenge for anyone who thinks that they are good at this, make a Vasudan ship.  :D

Where's the papercraft Lucifer destroying it with papercraft SSL's?
17:37:02   Quanto: I want to have sexual intercourse with every space elf in existence
17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

It took a couple of evenings IIRC. I also built two deimos models before it, but they didn't turn out nearly as well since they were printed on an injet printer rather than a laserjet, and the shape of the deimos makes them rather weak around the rear engine without any internal support. :\

As for the lucifer to destroy it, well I would, but I never liked the in-game lucifer model - only the cutscene model. That's why I built the HTL version in the first place, but I stand no chance of making a paper HTL lucifer. :p

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I was trying to download your great looking Medusa model to build for myself, and Mediafire seems to have deleted the file.

Also, anyone with any other models, even if you think they need modification, etc. I'd love to have them anyway, I've actually got my own website dedicated to models now, have designed a good few, and would be interested in seeing what I can make of what you have.

This doesn't look look like a paper model, but I feel that it is worth pointing out this rather spiffing piece of work that Shiv produced.

EDIT: Mea culpa, that was not actually produced by Shiv. Sorry :nervous:

Well if it is then I'm a major tool.

Edit: Yes, those small round things surrounding the base on the table make me suspect it's a CGI.

Anyway...

So that Hecate is a fake?  Pretty impressive hoax photos.  Now someone should make an actual model.

It's pretty much stated in the thread that it is. Really, look at the stand... It's... just not believable.

Nicely done though, with real background.

Plus can you imagine how hard it would be to make a Hecate, you would be there for months. :D

Yeah, I have Pericles' Freespace models already.  I also have a model of Lt. Ash's Apollo, and the Orion model that was posted on this forum quite some time ago.  I'm just trying to get my hands on more.  The Medusa would be great, and so would a Basilisk that was posted in the old Orion thread.

Even then you'd have to paint it... That definately doesn't look like a normally attainable paintjob.

One of the advantages of paper models is that you print the skin when you print the parts.  I'd say a model like that would take...maybe a week to build, if I wanted to be extra meticulous about it.

Well, I'll try and find it and upload it to a more permanent host.

Awesome!  Thank you a whole bunch!

For those of us interested in getting more, how easy is it to use the model from the game in Pepakura?  Care to walk me through it?

Pretty easy, just extract the model and relevant files, then convert the textures to .jpg and the model to .obj
