Description
Link is a life size papercraft model standing around 5'5. He is made completely from 250 gsm paper (about 4x stronger then normal paper). He has foam core supports in the top and bottom of his pants, top and bottom of his boots and a ring in his waist. There is also some in the back of his shield, and in the handle of the master sword.He can be easily unassembled for transportation. His head, torso, legs, sword, shield, and sheath are all separate. The sword can also be put into the sheath or into his hand. He can stand all on his own without any support.
Link is made from 250+ pages, the initial template is 198, but there are layers of strips of paper inside for support, and 831 pieces. I worked on him constantly for a month, working approximately 12 hours each day but sometimes that number could go up to 20.
If you are interested in making this model and have any questions, feel free to ask me, I would be more than happy to help.

Haha, that's so legit! But as CherryCobbler asked, I would be very curious to know how many ink cartridges this took

I am honestly not surprised this took a month to make, it is just awesome on a whole new scale
Well done with this, you've managed to capture such a firmness in his expressions and a real readiness for anything in his stance. And the fact that it's papercraft just adds to the quality of the work, you can really see that this was a project that was taken on by someone with a real love for the character and the method that was used to create this piece of work.
It's incredible, i love it

By the way, how many ink cartidges did you go through making that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Well my printer has the 4 different cartridges (black, magenta, yellow and cyan) and I think I only had to change them all once, maybe twice for the yellow, but it wasn't too bad.

Made one little figure out of paper one year ago and this one even took 24 hours...
Great Work!
