Hey all, just wanted to float an idear past all & sundry.

Had a request lately on another site for the patterns & instructions for our good girl's paper model. I obliged the fellow Browncoat (natch) since the thing is no longer available anywhere on the web.

Anyways, the idear is.......ya think it'd be worthy enough to put on the site here somewheres so's anyone can have it as wants it? If yeah, how to go about it, through admin maybe???

I went to download it the other day and was sad to see it gone. I think it's worth archiving.

Awesome, at least it started loading. Now how do we get it somewhere on the site here so it's easy to access?

I'll take the pdf if you have it. My tower went belly up awhile back and I lost it.

Very interesting. That's a paper version of Serenity that I've never seen before. Thank you.

Haha, new summer project!

Crap.

Well, Google translate( http://translate.google.com/translate_t?hl=en&sl=es&tl=en#) seems to work well when you have it set on Spanish --> English. I played with it last night. They start to make sense once in English.

It just adds a lot of extra time, work, and it complicates things more. Ugh.

Hey guys, don't sweat the Spanish. Doblar = fold, pegar = glue, enrollar = roll it up. Just pay close attention to the drawings and always do test fits before gluing.

Got an email from Haken: "I'll most likely have it up tonight. If not, for sure tomorrow.

> Haken"

Just friggin' awesome.

Modified graphics, but she's Jorge Garcia Serrato's model.

So... that one's like a different model? Or what?

I'm confused.

Master Jack,

The model now currently archived here is Jorge Serrato's model with a different "paint job" and some minor mods by "Laz" to reflect the movie version of Serenity.

It is different from the one linked by Beatlesfan. Far as I know, Jorge's was the first one posted to the web (could be wrong about that) and to my mind is the "original" paper model of our good girl offered free for the taking by us Browncoats.
