I need to use heavier paper

Papercraft done well is pretty insane. It's not something you do with elmers glue and fabric scissors...

The guy I spoke of that did the Forza car on the previous pages was a papercraft master, and his looked insane. Of the 10 that were made for the competition, I recall at least 8 of them looking like complete crap.

If I were to do one of these, it would definitely be several hours set aside, and I'd only be able to work on it for 20 minutes a day because I get impatient. I would probably do all that and it still look like crap.

your definitely right man. Thanks for making me feel better about my crappy one lol. I need to research actually what these guys use to make them come out perfect but also like you said 20 minutes at a time is perfect I worked straight through.

Awesome share, definitely going to make a couple of these myself, despite that they'll probably look terrible when they're done. =D
