Just download the pics, cut them out and glue!!!

the only downfall is that is it in spanish.
but the dircetions are with pictures, so us american browncoats shouldnt have a problem figuring it out.

have fun, i know i will.

Shiny! What would be cooler is to use some thin
guage aluminum instead of paper. Then add in some
LED's, nice paint-job (drool). When I get time, I'm
building me one!
Thanks for linking this!

very cool, but does anyone know how to print these on 8.5" by 11" paper and keep the size without having to open an immage editor and move stuff around?

All I can say is that this is a bitch to put together. I had to give up before I finished the first sheet. The cutting was tedious, and forget the gluing. It might be easier if the pieces are at least 4x size. Only master paper-modellers should attempt this model.

It does look gorgeous, though!

I'll try. I ain't the best at the language, but my dad will be home later and he can translate for us.

I know that some of the steps are asking you to fold the paper, then glue it together and place it gently on the piece. Don't know much more without the pictures though.

I think this one is better myself. There are no textures on it, so it'll require painting yourself, but it's a more accurate shape. I've already started mine. Intend to add a few mods of my own.

where did you get the thin sheet metal from, and what methods did you use to transfer the image to the metal and cut it out?

i actually ended up using aluminumn sheeting which is a bit expensive here but is worth it 4 serenity and i tranfered the diagram onto the sheet by just tracing it. i used the larger model of serenity without coloring on it

This is a slightly more accurate model than the one featured in the link on the 1st post.


On the other, seems to me that the engine core is way too small, and the neck rises far too high aswell. It's a very good model, just aint accurate enough for me.

There are 2 links on my other post further up, plus this one http://www.armorbimbo.com/ There are no instructions for it, but there's a large set of step by step photos to download as well as the pattern it's self in PDF files.
How big is the other model btw, it was kind of difficult to judge and I don't seem to be able to call the site up anylonger?

im not sure how big its going to turn out, but juging by the size of the engines, and the 'ass' of the ship i think its going to be about 16-18 inches long. but im a bad judge of measurements, so dont quote me

16 to 18 inches long 8-0. That's a fair bit smaller than I thought. And here's me posting, 'here, you can build this one too'. Like, it's over 3 ft long .
Still gonna do it though, given time. I'll try to put a cockpit, consoles and cutouts of the crew in there too.
