Papercraft Mazinger Z

[gravewolf]

There was a time when I was so out of luck and had to have a tight grip on my wallet so I couldn't buy any new robot toys. The addiction for super robots was hard to suppress so I had to find a way to get my fix, luckily I was able to find a temporary solution in the form of papercraft. It was so easy to find and download all my favorite super robots that I can print, cut and paste together. There were some paper models that really stood out like this Mazinger Z because this one got the proportions right and was so easy to build! Not only does he look like the real Mazinger Z but he's really big standing at 2 feet tall. I wasn't able to build the scrander since it would have been really harder to display with the wings attached. The arms can actually move up and down and the pilder can be removed but I decided to glue it in place since I prefer just displaying it. The little guy on his left side is also a papercraft Ingram but that was a hell of a model which took me 2 weeks to build because of the small parts I had to cut and glue.

Are these very difficult gravewolf? There are some I would like to try when I get a new printer.

It depends on the model, if has small parts then it’s gonna take lot of patience to cut and paste. I usually use a surgical blade for the small parts to ensure that I get precise cuts. But I’ll honestly say that the complex papercraft models like the Ingram is far more difficult compared to assembling a bandai perfect grade gundam.

The Ingram is indeed a killer.....it almost killed my patience cause it was so hard to do lol.
