Supreme Commander 2 Papercraft Robots

The real-time strategy video game Supreme Commander 2 was released by Square Enix in 2010. Part of the marketing for the game was the release of paper models of several of the armored command unit robots seen in the game. In addition to the three robots shown above, there is also a less 3D paper model of a "cybranosaurus" for papercraft beginners. The templates for all four models may be downloaded here.

Rat Chef Origami

Here is a delightful origami piece by Nguyen Hung Cuong which he calls "Rat Chef" (an homage to Disney Pixar's Ratatouille perhaps? ^^). The rat, the chef hat and the spoon were each folded from separate piece of paper. The folding pattern for the rat (spoon and hat not included) may be downloaded from Cuong's page here.

KU EcoHawk VW Beetle Papercraft

At the University of Kansas (my alma mater!), the School of Engineering has an ongoing design project to create sustainable approaches to automobiles. One of the first successes of the project involved converting a 1974 Volkswagen Super Beetle into a plug-in series hybrid that can be recharged using either a generator running on used cooking oil biodiesel or a solar energy filling station. A paper model template of the VW (dubbed the "EcoHawk I") may be downloaded at the KU website.

Mosaic Monday/ Arm Milagro

"Untitled"

This is a 5x7x2 Mosaic I finished recently for my upcoming show in September. The artwork underneath the glass is a drawing of the doll arm that is on top and also an x-ray of a broken arm supplied by my assistant's Lola's Mom. I am not sure yet what I will title the piece.

There is a lot of stuff happening early this fall for me in my Mosaic world. In early September I have an article coming out about my mixed media mosaic technique in Cloth Paper Scissors Magazine. You can subscribe to this cool magazine on-line or order back issues. http://www.clothpaperscissors.com/content/Subscriptions.aspx.  After my gallery show at the end of the month I will be heading to Italy to study mosaics in Venice at Orsoni.  Dan and Lola will be holding down the fort for me here at Art Paw while I study mosaics in a foreign country, sometimes I just can not believe I have such an amazing life. I am very lucky to be able to pursue what I love and create art every single day.  If you had told me in college that I would end up marrying that shy boy with the long hair and we would create a life that is full of art and animals I could never have imagined what that might look like.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl Papercraft: Pit

I don't have much information on this papercraft of the character Pit from Nintendo's Kid Icarus series of video games. What I do know is that the template for the paper model was created by former DeviantART member Sora243 in 2008. The model may have been based on a 3D model from the Super Smash Bros. Brawl video game, although I can't say for sure. Pit is an angel from the mythical world of "Angel Land". Papercraft templates in PDF and PDO format may be downloaded here.
