    Love the giant size blank. What is he made of? Great model. So much potential…
  • Nick Knite

    @cooper: not yet! hold tight, as soon as i have the Mecha6 together, i will unleash him..

    @scott: it is a knd of PVC, we call it FOREX, i have no idea what it is called in english.. very soft hardfoam, easy to cut, expensive, but well worth it! he turned out just the way he was supposed to.. (:
  • Mr. WalkieTalkie

    I hope its not too big but either way congats!
  • Nick Knite

    thanks! the original version consists of four pages.. a little more complex than my last models.. (;

    the big one stands at about 1meter/3.3ft! (:
  • Jerom

    I think this Mechabunny will be a new classic papertoy ;)
    And these giant size blank models are a great idea: in this way, everyone see that their design is perfect, if you see what I mean. Anyway I love too the black one: it looks like made of metal... or asphalte O__o
  • Mr. WalkieTalkie

    Hey now I know it reminds me of E440!!!
  • Nick Knite

    @jerom: thanks! i am glad you like it. the black one is just another white one that i spraypainted with a dark grey, the paper really took that color quite nicely.. (:

    @gabriel: i will take that as a compliment, though..! (: e440 rules! (plus, ringo liked MechaB. too..)
  • Abz

  • Tephlon

    THIS. This is why i keep coming back here, even though I'm going through a dry spell creatively. Cool stuff nick!
  • mckibillo

    Yeah I saw this in the pics of the show and was wondering what it was.... it really is a readymade classic. Any chance he'll make it to Tokyo?
  • Nick Knite

    wow, i am blushing as i write this..thanks tephlon and mckibillo!
    i doubt that i can send over the big one, but i have something different in store with him which is not quite finished yet.. that ould be 'sendable' and actually quite fitting for japan..! (;
  • Luke 'Glood'
