Not the Mars you where expecting! The Mars company that sells M&Ms, Twix and other candy once had a mail-order set of papercraft Star Trek Spaceships. Five candy wrappers plus 1,50$ would get you a set of five paper starships, from the Enterprise to the Workbee. The set was scanned and made available on CollectingCandy.com site. The bigger ships are somewhat stylized, but the small pods and shuttles could serve for table-filler in a RPG or strategy game.

Organization!? I just put the lot on the same folder and done with that. When I put this to use I'll worry about what piece of what set each of these files are, but this a problem for future me, not present me.

Has anyone else been doing a major download? I downloaded everything. My daughters love watching the Doctor, I'll scale the sets for them to play with playmobils.

I didn't saw it there. Assumed it would be in the fan created models section...

I think you can texture it and put on the fanmade-freebies section of the Fat Dragon Forum.

That must have some 200 paper parts. These things are too much cutting and fiddling to put on the game table.

That's almost the exact set of Serenity Cargo Bay, stairs and all.

And never forget to set the Macro setting of your camera. It's there for this reason.

It's amazing how the art has matured. the variety of dynamic poses in the figures is excellent, it really seems that they are in ferocious combat. I'm still weirded by these blank eyes tough.

In the larger pieces that would consume a large number of magnets, I glue discarded pieces of x-xacto blades, then I glue a paper on top of them to protect against rust and to protect anyone handling the piece. You can glue a piece on any point you think a stair, bridge or interesting rock could go, and them only glue magnets on these other pieces to save a little money.

I too have some boxes of terrain made for a day when I can put them to use. At least some times a year I can put a table at a local game event and use some of them in a demo game for beginners.
Nice build, hoping to see better photos soon.

I do it with magnets. Define a system to position them in such a way that two pieces that need to be together never repulse each other and there you go. You can find rare earth magnets in lots of a hundred with free shipping for about ten dollars.
To place a magnet in an already build piece, I make an incision on the piece, coat the side of the magnet that I want with glue, and position a dozen or so magnets in a pile together in the point where I want it to go, on the outside of the piece, positioned in a way that the magnet falls in that direction once I put it through the incision. A little push and there you go.

I made a One Monk Terra Force Wolverine, after all it goes well with Ebbles robots: As my Robots, the articulation is done by way of magnets. So the turret can spin forever without stress and wear of the paper. Since all my robots use magnets, I can mix and match, behold this metal abomination and his hatred by all biological life forms: And I can combine any weapons I have, so lets put a twin machine gun module and a 12 units rocket launcher: Run, meat, run.

My robot horde thus far: The Jotun, with two machine gun modules instead of the cannons, two Type 18, two Itoyo, a Sentry, some fixed point weapons, and lots of character drones, plus sorted vehicles and buildings.

It's the Revoltech background that I talked about here: I just found yesterday the Revoltech Backgrounds that Vermin King postedI'm planning in weathering the Arbalest one (edition 80) to be more suitable with the used future look of ebbles miniatures. I weathered it a little:

I love the way you do the posing of your paper minis, always dynamic, as the characters are in the middle of action! I'll print them all at once!
Or at least the bearded ones. I'm still of the opinion that to discover the gender of a dwarf you need a very strong rope and a can opener.

Don't worry too much about your English. Half (or more) the forum aren't native speakers, I can name a dozen countries that are well represented in here. If you can make your message across, that's all that matters.
That and paper miniatures, of course.

Back sides are a must-have! It's the most important difference between an paper miniature and a character illustration.

Shoot! My scanner didn't scan very well. The original weren't this granulated.
I'll try again, later.

The FAB (Brazilian Air Force) made this model of the F5 Tiger. They distribute them in science fairs where they show up.

That depends on the license of the miniature. Each author has the liberty of using the license he sees fit. If no license is given you need permission from the author.
All the miniatures on the forum HOARD have a CC license that permits modification, and non-commercial redistribution.
