OK, so I built the "Van To The Future" papercraft model available at nrwstr.com/3d-van-to-the-future I scaled it at 55%, which brought it to 1:56 scale. I had multiple build problems with it, mostly with dark colors bleeding over the cut and score lines, which made accurate cutting and scoring difficult. The wheel assemblies were unevenly sized and caused the sides to warp a bit. I glued the finished model on to a base to partly fix the warpage and give it a bit of height next to a 28mm model. This is not my best assembly job, but is good enough to be some background scenery in a Cyberpunk game.
Hi! I'm Harry, formerly "Coyotepunc" here on the forum. I am a hobby addict; I prefer papercraft scenery to use alongside my 28mm metal and plastic miniatures, and am not afraid to mix and match my hobby media. I game sci-fi, fantasy, and historical (including Ancients, Dark Ages, Renaissance, and World War II Italy & Sahara.)
flburns: I just wanted to wish everyone participating this year much luck! Seems to have a lot of nice work to choose from. I'm out again this year, was diagnosed last week with a sinus infection AND covid, so my project was cancelled.

Vermin King: The traditional Papercuts! motto -- 'but it remains to be seen if I'll get it done!' And I even thought I might have a figure for this year ...

mproteau (Paper Realms): Papercraft in Action submission done! That's all I've got energy for this month I'm working on a massive building right now, which would be an excellent submission for something, but it remains to be seen if I'll get it done!

Vermin King: Then I started exploring a bunch of stuff SmallPDF can do.

Vermin King: The problem is that Japanese Text takes less room than English, so you still have to print from the original, but now I have instructions (and at least a clue as to what some of the projects are)

Vermin King: Evidently SmallPDF can translate, merge documents and more. For translating, they start off the page saying you might be better off using Google Translate. Previously I was unaware that you can upload documents there and have them translated.

Vermin King: Regarding the last few shouts, Ninjatoes posted the JIII site, and the papercrafts in their bi-monthly magazine. There are lots of moving things and STEM-related items. All in Japanese, which I have limited (non-existent) knowledge.

Punkrabbitt: I have not. I use PDF Shaper, which does not seem to do so. I have PDF Creator on my work computer, but I haven't tried that with layers yet.

Vermin King: Evidently SmallPDF can merge separate pdfs into one document. Has anyone tried it with layered pdf's?
