Get Out Your Scissors And Glue (April 12, 2005)

As impressive as many Wing Commander fans' digital creations are, I often find our physical arts and crafts to be especially exciting. In the past we've reported on a variety of construction paper models of Wing Commander ships. Akula recently found that I-War fans had made similar models, and some of them are quite elaborate.

​

The size of the I-War models is particularly impressive. The Wing Commander designs released thus far have mainly been high-quality recreations of various fighters. You can find instructions on how to build those here.

These are pretty damn awesome. Has anyone ever tried building these things from a 3d model? I remember someone had recommended me a program to get the model "folded-out" on paper, but I could never figure out how to get good results.
