Hi. I found some epic pictures of paper models of units in Starcraft, and thought I would share them with everyone at TL. They are made by blogger named 콘스타블(Constable) and you can download the plans at his blog : http://poppaper.net/80123692028
You can see the marauder is paper and the banshee is standing on a pole but some really look great;) All look great;) but some can be reckognized as paper;)
He did a siege tank one too that may be the most impressive. Anyways thanks for sharing this we don't get a lot of korean community information especially about fan made things like this so if you ever see anything similar I know that I and the rest of TL would love to see it.
These are unreal. Definitely thought they were just regular 3D models until I read the OP and that they were paper. The construction/seams on them are FLAWLESS. o__O
1. If you want to see all the models he made, click on the link "스타크래프트2" (Ctrl+F and then copy paste the korean characters if you are having trouble finding it)
2. You will need a .pdo file reader to be able to open the blueprint files, save for the Gauss Rifle's which is a series of .pdf files. Search for .pdo on google.
3. The download links are written as: "도면다운로드" on Battlecruiser page "도면다운받기" on Immortal, Wraith, Marauder, Banshee pages "첨부파일" on Siege tank siege mode page Again, Ctrl+F and then copy paste the korean characters so you will find them easier.
Very impressive work, I support a guest appearance on the broadcast (and maybe an interview with the creator along with some more of his work shown as a gapfiller between two matches ?)
My hands are bleeding of paper cuts just thinking how he managed to do this. Absolutely suburb work! It had me fooled as well, I thought they were 3D rendition models using as a reference.

I put them up. I'm TL noob so it took me ages. I don't know how I ended up linking the words "Plan download link" and "Banshee". Dont click it, it will just lead you to tank image. I don't know how to get rid of the link.

Thanks, we did the work at the same time (sorry!) The information that I needed to search for .pdo files helped. I think we found them all now! ;-)
BTW you can steal the link for the siege tank from my post!
This site will link almost all of the Starcraft models if you search starcraft. I'm finished the immortal, and most of the way done the banshee...this stuff has been out for a while.

If you go to the top right corner of that post, there is a red number with a green arrow next to it. Click on it and a list will appear and you'll be able to select the file you want to download (think the plans are in the sc2-cannon file).
Difficulty level of those models (according to the creator):
Siege tank: Medium, but the body can be a little frustrating Battlecruiser: Medium. The model is huge, so I recommend reducing the image sizes before printing them out Wraiths: Medium Gauss rifle: Medium Immortal: Difficult Banshee: Very difficult with many tiny pieces. Will require fine tools.
does anyone have a suggestion for a .pdo viewer? googling ".pdo viewer" gives me some japanese links and some spam ones. just want to make sure i'm downloading something legit!

You can download the Pepakura Viewer here for free. It only works for Windows though so Mac users are out of luck.
I started the Immortal in the summer. It is actually pretty challenging. For people going to try this, buy cardstock paper, don't use printer paper, as it is too weak for these models. Also, use an x-acto knife or similar craft knife to cut out the pieces, and cut on a softer surface, like a thick stack of newspapers or a specially made cutting mat (so you don't ruin your knife). You can use regular school glue to glue these parts together, just use a cotton swab or toothpick to put on small amounts of the glue. Fine tipped tweezers are also useful to manipulate the small pieces.
Wow i do really want to make that immortal. It must be really hard so as i'm lazy and i have no experience with this things, i will wait for someone to make a video on youtube. ^ ^
It's completely mental how well made these are, I mean look at the colours. Almost can't believe these are real, so much work must have gone into it. Amazing.

I really, really, really, want to know how to make these. Like now. Does it require some serious skillage with the plans? I'd imagine all of the hard work would be going into designing, but folding... That's all we need :<
These models are amazing! I know what I'm doing at my mindless in school job now...

Guys still i recommend you using the the PDO Viewer if you want to stay sane.
Thanks for Uploading the PDFs!
Are there instructions anywhere for putting these together? seems kinda difficult if you don't know what you're doing.
I've made a couple simpler papercraft before but I hope that I could get some tips before starting some of these ones.
1. Any way of avoiding creases in the paper when dealing with the tabs on the parts? I tend to fold them but since they are on cardstock sometimes the creases are very noticeable.
2. Sometimes the white from the tabs/paper folds are not entirely covered, I usually use markers now to avoid this. Any other methods?
Also has anyone made the Stalker (http://paperkraft.blogspot.com/2010/12/starcraft-2-protoss-stalker-papercraft.html), and how did it turn out?
you really need the program to make it (Pepakura Viewer), b/c there are no instructions per-say. In the viewer you can see flap numbers so you know where to fold too, and you can see red lines showing you what goes where. it's a free program, just DL and have fun

1) you can VERY LIGHTLY score a line with your the back of you X-Acto knife, or even better a empty mechanical pencil. it's important to use a ruler also
2) Use Pepakura Viewer and click the "color flaps with neighboring faces" it will put color over the cut/bend lines.

Thanks a lot for these pdfs :D now I don't have to get the viewer. Edit: Holy shit. Might want to get the viewer after all this is a lot harder than I thought it would be (Trying to do banshee which is the most detailed one)
On April 28 2011 02:17 Strike_ wrote: Is there any way that I can make one without super-papercraft specialized tools?
Startup cost isn't too bad
110lb (200gsm) cardstock Hobby knife/scissors Elmer's Glue-All Stack of old newspapers to cut on Toothpicks to apply glue Metal ruler or a pen without ink for scoring
If you don't have a color printer available you can go to the printing shop and hand them a flash drive with the pdf you want and ask them to print it on 200gsm/110 lb cardstock.

Yes, they are. Immortal and Marauder are in-game versions (and I guess Wraith and Battlecruiser too). Siege Tank and Banshee are cinematic versions of the models. Awesome. Marauder has it's detailed version too, I wonder why it wasn't used here.

Thanks ginnipig for all the tips and the site, I guess I have been doing quite a few things wrong! Definitely going to try one of the easier models first to see how it turns out.

This immortal was on 4chan's papercraft board a few months ago, so someone named who had gone ahead and enlarged the immortal for everyone. Here is the link to it: [url blocked]
I think the finished model stands over two feet tall when it's finished. The instructions are the same as the small one, so it shouldn't be too hard to match the parts to it.
Edit: This guy also enlarged a baneling papercraft. Here's the link to the pdo
I guess some might find useful the fact that any of you can create those.
You will need: - a copy of Starcraft 2 :D - 3DsMax and M3 Plugin (or maybe someone knows better way of converting M3 to *.obj) - Pepakura Designer - 110lb (200gsm) cardstock (I trust commanderfun here) - Color Printer - Glue - Knife/scissors - Ruler
A quick guide: - Convert your favorite unit model (the easiest way to obtain one is to extract it with Galaxy Editor) to *.obj using 3DsMax. - Open the *.obj file in Pepakura Designer. - Use Pepakura Designer to create paperwork print (this is a step I haven't done yet). - Print. - Make model. - Take a photo. - Be gosu.
According to Wikipedia 110lb corresponds to 300gms. I'm a complete ignorant in that matter though. I'd appreciate some help here as I plan to create such a model myself. :3
I guess the choice of paper is a pretty important one. I wouldn't like to screw something here. I also have no idea what glue should I use.
To the creator of these papercrafts, if you speak English and read this thread, or anyone who has the skills to make these, I'm looking to buy one. Contact me if interested. I'm serious and willing to pay well.

You'd need way too many polygons (well, in this case, spikes, etc) to make them look anything like ingame, doing it with different colors like in the terran and protoss units would just look like crappy textures in crappy games.
I was pretty excited to spend the rest of my night on making one of these, but now that I downloaded the files, I realized how clueless I am on where to begin. I think TL should start making some guides!
I tried doing the immortal with 110 lb paper and found it too difficult to work with in the tight areas, mostly in the torso. I haven't had time to start again with lighter weight paper.
Does anyone know what weight paper Constable uses?

Thank you very much for the info. 120 grams corresponds to 32 lb if anyone is wondering.
I started preparations to create... THOR (collector's edition).
I have no idea when will I actually start the crafting it but you can be sure that I'll let you know. I don't even have idea if I will start it at all to be honest. I'm at the stage of adjusting the model and the texture and obtaining Pepakura Designer. :<

!? 120 grams is 0.26 pounds and 120 kg is 264.6 lb, so I'm not sure how you got that conversion.
I feel like I'm missing something and you're using "corresponds to" in another way..
This is amazing. I have attempted the banshee, somehow finished the tail rotor without failing miserably. One mis-snip/mis-glue = ohshit. Am I supposed to just make whichever parts in whichever order I want and just put it together?

Those look so realistic i didn't realize that they weren't in game model screenies. Seriously, Constable has a lottttttt of talent. Hell I'm gonna try to make one of these now, will probably turn out horrible lol xD
well i've had some intrest from the community on selling some made paper models. While i have made others before i'm going to try my hand at the Baneling then post some pics and go from there. i'm guessing it's going to take 10h to finish.

Once I print it off and cut it out how do I assemble the model? Am I supposed to be able to freestyle that part? I'm intimidated by the 324 parts in the banshee : /

I'm working on the Siege Tank right now, and if you click on the part on the template, it highlights it in the 3D model. I haven't found assembly to be a problem yet.
It isnt as prefect as the originals, but i like it very much. It was my first paper model i have built. Sadly, my printer seems to not print the colours as nice as the pictures on site one. It take about 35-40 hours. I just need to cover up the foldings with a grey color and then its done.
my advice: try it..what do you ahve to loose? Try to be patient and dont hurry.
i just printed it out like it is in the pdo viewer...there were 10 or 12 din a4 sheets...you can see the acutal size in my photo above...its really big, there arent too small edges, but some smal ones ;-)
Only one word: WOW I could not believe that was paper until I saw the plans. I am so going to make one ^^
Edit: After trying the first page of the tank, I would have to say this is a project that is going to take a lot of time and effort. Really makes me impressed at the person who came up with the plans and those who can actually make ones of these models. (Yes I have given up, for now...) Things I have learnt: -Having a cutter and and cutting board is a must, scissors can be used but are really a pain. -The flaps are too small, this makes gluing close to impossible. You might want to cut them out larger then they are. -Using tape might be better then glue in some cases.

my experience:
i only have an old really big scissor, but i works, only after 3-4 hours my hands hurt a bit. the flaps are compeltely ok, they are in fact way bigger then other papermodels, tape? no way, you would see it and its incredibly more complicated then glue.
thats just what i have learned out of building that model

100g /m²- photo paper was to thick, next time trying more contrast or go to a copy shop
Awesome! Can anyone post a tutorial on importing more models into Pepakura Designer?
I already know how to extract base.SC2assets and import models into 3ds Max (thanks to the search function), but if I try to export them as a *.3ds and load that into Pepakura, every model I've tried just shows up as a faceted sphere. I've also tried using that m3 viewer program from sc2mapster, but somehow that fails to even read the *.m3 and *_diffuse.dds files properly, anything I attempt to view there just looks like a jagged mess of malfunctioning shaders...
I've started to make the Siege Tank....and have been taking pictures along the way (about a picture per page, and there's 10 pages). If people are interested I'll post them (it's my first paper project ever and I'm on page three at the moment).

I've been trying to make the tank too, but I think using 210gms card is not the best idea. The flaps are to hard to bend over and show really bad when you join the sections together.

Very nicely done, I really like the banshee and tank seiged up on the first page, very sick, I envy the skill it takes to make paper look so beastly...

Please post pictures of the Stalker when you're done! Thinking of making that one next before I attempt the Immortal which seems quite difficult.
So i also tried doing my own pdo file, but its very very hard work to do that. because wen pepakura creator does unfold a model i imported it creates undoable foldings. So i need to invest several hours for a model in cutting it down in several doable pieces.. So doing all at once and upload it, is not a valid option. But when iam done wit ha model, i will post ist here.

I was expecting to see cigarette butts added one by one until the ash tray overflowed.
the bunker looks total shit... hte problem is with how blizzard made the 3d models for buildings...for example, the top columns in the model go through the roof...so when building you have a huge problem...anyway i will edit the 3d model from hand later to make it possible to create a paper layout.
first off iam no finishing the map, the ramp and the outer textures...also steam will be added to teh vespine geyser.... when i have enough led's at home i also will start doing the lighning for the vespine geyser.
Does anyone have any tips on how to do the rounded pieces? I'm currently trying the Marauder and all of his cylinder-like tanks on the back are coming out crappily.
Hey guys, hope some non sc2 related paperwork is ok? Iam away for some days (4 days straight party*g*) but when iam back in life, i promise i will finish the xelnaga map, at least the ramp ( i need to buy new printing paper)...
so here the pictures:
He want's to become a Firebat, when he's big.
And here an eagle, it looks really nice in reallife, a shame that i messed up some parts, but this model just worked nothing near the others in this thread, it wasn't based on a 3d model. So it really had no edges just curves.
Holy shiznit, you're really getting into this, Pharaun. Must've taken you quite a bit of time. I'm attempting Maruader right now and I'm not sure when I will finish it... Not the best choice for my first ever papercraft, lol.

According to Wikipedia 110lb corresponds to 300gms. I'm a complete ignorant in that matter though. I'd appreciate some help here as I plan to create such a model myself. :3
I guess the choice of paper is a pretty important one. I wouldn't like to screw something here. I also have no idea what glue should I use.
I have followed and the transition from the file. M3 to 3dsmax, you lose all color and color do not have to move file. Obj is it too but also white and there is no color. so you can only own how to turn it on file. obj retain its color. for example, as a child I wanted to do in pheonix starcraft 2 when in to have full color. Everyone could be his guide, and if so more pictures the better.

I tried getting my hands on that bashee .pdo file, but an error comes up on that Korean website so I can no longer get it. Also, it appears that Megaupload has been shut down. So... if anyone has the .pdo file for the banshee and is willing to share, i would be most appreciative.
