And another one with folded paper mini's , anyone able to translate the pages enough to see if he sells them or are they just his own projects ?
http://www5b.biglobe.ne.jp/~kamaboko/

EDIT , found how to download them , click on the tab on the bottom to the left of 1960's F1 , then click on the mini and then the mini , then the left hand side of the picture of the mini that's split into 3 parts . You can choose colours and then get to download a pdf of the page ready to print .

EDIT 2 , if you click on the image of the Mescherschmit on the first page above and then follow the pictures you get to the vans , traveller and Monte Carlo rally mini .

It's just taken me 10 minutes to cut out the main bit of the mini body .....

There's a panelvan in there too if you click on the second to the right of 60's F1 and hunt around. Heaps of minis infact.

this guy's got to be a sociopath or something....

Yeah , no printable sheet for the panelvan though :cry:

I'll hopefully let you know what they're like to make when the little dude goes down for a nap after lunch :D :D :D

Well , if anyones considerring making one of these make sure you have plenty of time , they are so fiddly to cut out and glue (I used superglue) , this is about 2 hours worth of frustration and I haven't started on the wheels yet ....
