Description This is a closer look of my completed papercraft project of Megatron. The original base model was done by G. "Alpha-Prime" Civita (AKA Ancient1) for the Transformers Quake player pack. I then took it and redid abour 90% of the actual mesh and developed a new texture from scratch.

It was then unfolded in Pepakura and then printed on 65lb cardstock and printed with an HP Laserjet.

The complete model stand 12.5 inches tall. I should be releasing it soon.

Build details and other info can be followed in the Papermodelers forum in the thread:

I'm making a Megatron costume and so this is really helpful, especially the paper model sheet in the link. Great work. Excellent craftsmanship.

Glad you like it. There was another person that built one off these pdo's as well. You can check it out at: [link]

Yes I actually talked to him on here. I am going to be building my own Megatron cosplay so I've been printing out visuals and your papercraft sheet will really help.

I made this and it's amazing! Do you think that maybe you could make a size accurate starscream to go with him?

Everything I've distributed thus far has been free. I don't think that I could ever legally sell any of the Transformers that I have. The first reason is that the characters are owned by Hasbro and the second is that my model was adapted from the work of another 3D modeller. Win for everyone under free for personal use rules.

I have a couple projects that may turn into a fee for the pdo's, but nothing really close on the horizon.

Nice! Looks like he got slightly toasted in an explosion and is about to be VERY UNIMPRESSED at whoever was responsible.
