More Paper Models Under Construction

Here's a preview of the new paper models that Péricles is working on. Two beautiful Broadswords are leading the way. Both are the same geometric model, but they feature characteristic paint schemes from Wing Commander 2 and Privateer 1. The Vampire, Jrathek and Dralthi VII are also coming along. All but the Dralthi are tentatively broken down into their streamlined 3D versions and awaiting construction. When complete, each fighter should be a 1/200 scale reproduction of the original. You can check out some of his previous designs here. Portuguese readers can also learn more at his website.

The models in general are made starting from meshes and extracted textures from the original games or mods and add ons for other games. The meshes in different formats are converted to cob format and, if necessary, edited in the software Metasequoia and unfolded in editor Pepakura Designer. Customizations sometime occur with cockpit, landing gear and canopies.
