Shelf Buddies Template

This is my first ACTUAL prototype of my first ACTUAL paper toy. It's big for me : P. ok, feel free to comment and if you would like a copy then go ahead and ask for that too! I will give you/upload instructions for it aswell. I am still tweaking it to get it JUST right but if anyone has any ideas or even designs for the little guy then once again feel free to ask me! i love listening and reading others opinions and i will DEFINITELY take into account any great tips you give me : ) Stay Nice, Anubis OUT!

    well to answer nice bunny's and tephlon's questions, the hands and feet are attached by string and are weighted down by blutac. im not sure if it will work too well or if you get what im on about but thats just my idea. yeh i thought that it wasnt too "original" either tephlon, which is what the string and weights are for. to make it a little "different" to the other models out there. which technically means it isn't a proper papercraft toy. but i mean, this is just a prototype so yeh. i CAN change it :).

    and to answer Doc Shazam's question, i used paint. uh huh. microsoft paint. it's absolute HELL to work with. im pursuing proper software but like you am not too sure which software to choose.

    and lastly, tephlon and nice bunny, (mostly tephlon as i have already told nice bunny) i HAVE made a model but my only camera has sorta bummed out on me so i cant post a pic of the completed model yet. i agree teph, "shelfbuddies' is a better name. :)

    stay nice guys!

    I never said it wasn't original. Because it is.

    I didn't know about the "String and bluetac" which gives it a lot more attitude. I like it better already. :-)

    as for programs: You might want to check out "The Gimp" (GNU Image Manipulation Program) here: http://www.gimp.org/ (or GIMPShop at http://www.gimpshop.com/ if you are more familiar with Photoshop).

    Then there is Inkscape, which is a Free Vector program: http://www.inkscape.org/index.php?lang=en

    Download and Enjoy
