I hope you enjoy building it!
You really fall in love with Steampunk, it's such an open-ended art form. And you get to see so much creativity it becomes mind boggling.
And I couldn't agree more, a world without awe is a boring world indeed.
I pretty much stink at graphic arts but I keep plodding away at it. It is the one thing that makes a good model a great model. You got the skills and you should feel proud!
It makes me feel good when people appreciate my work.
If you are looking into creating your own paper models you may want to try a program called Google SketchUp. There is a free version of the program (which is what I use). And there is a free plugin for it called Flattery. You can model, texture and unfold you model all in the same program and it is much easier to learn than Blender. Don't get me wrong, I love Blender but for paper models it's a bit of a pain
And don't worry about your graphic art skills. It all improves with practice
hey ... dun be mad, just curious, why don't you ever take photos of the live sculpture and post it?
I guess I am just too lazy to post pics.
I'm working on a set of Victorian houses right now so I guess I can post pics of the finished model.
