This looks cool. Paper kerbals to recreate the situation that inspired the game!...

Or, to sit on your desk, not burning to pieces.

Wow, that looks complicated to assemble! Rocket science indeed! I'd be interested to see how you fare with this. I had no idea there was software available that specifically made paper assemblies from 3D models. Interesting idea.

Very cool! I'd love to see it once it gets assembled.

Just updated the thread =)

Looks like it will be hard to assemble, good luck.

This is looking awesome!

Wow, that's cool. But I can't help but think there's got to be a better way to build a Kerbal papercraft than pasting together hundreds of strips. As an ex-papercraft enthusiast, I would never build something that tedious.

It's the only thing i can do with complicated 3d models :[ But for me it will'be pretty easy and i'm going to make some easier kerbals in the future

WHY IS THE BODY COVERED IN THE LAST PIC! capslock aversion

Because it has a sign that says "Hello" in a bunch of languages?

[Whirligig Girl]

Could you throw up a link to that 3DS model? I want to study the kerbal anatomy in detail for artistic purposes.
