For folks interested in papercraft (and I very much am), Google Sketchup + Pepakura = paper models of damn near everything.

BTW, get SketchUp 7.0, not 7.1. Something's odd in the kmz export.


The photography really brings it all together. It feels like I'm looking at behind-the-scenes photos of an Aphex Twin video.


There's an Uncanny Valley effect going on for sure.

I bet if it were a bit closer to life-sized it would truly spook people.


To be clear: this is not my work. I just pasted the link :)


Excellent work . . .you could make a really cool short film with this technique.


You could start a small business selling these.


How does he see out of it?


Nice piece of Work.... cheers.
