Working on this craft right now. Looks awesome! My one complaint is that it really could use instructions.

Yeah, this is a pretty old model already, and I didn't make step-by-step instructions back then...

I drew some schematics for some parts (they're on the part templates themselves) and for the rest, you'll have to examine the fold lines and pictures to see how you should fold and shape the parts.

It's quite a small model, so the parts are much easier to work with if you pre-shape/curve them throroughly (for the curved parts) and if you score the fold lines before folding them (for the parts with sharp folds).

If you're not sure about a certain part, try it without glue first and see if it fits the way you thought (that way if it doesn't fit, you can still easily change it if you missed a fold line or anything.

The 6 pylons are the same of course, so once you made one, the others are the same, and the same goes for the rings (if you made one, the others are the same).

Take your time and have fun!

Thanks! I actually printed it on a tabloid size cardstock, so it's bigger than the original. Still seems quite small. Still awesome though! Keep up the good work!

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! It's an oldie of mine, but although it's hand drawn, it turned out really nice! ;o)

Hand drawn? Wow, how long did this beast take?

Very impressive work.

Haha well because it involved a lot of drawing the parts>testing the parts>fixing the parts and of course I couldn't work on it 24/7 it took me quite a while... But most of the parts like the pylons are used multiple times, so that was a real timesaver. ;o)

Heh :) Most of my creative stuff is done under 4 hours because it has to be done in one sitting or abandoned forever... ADD lol. That's why I'm like "wow" at time-consuming pieces :-)
