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.

If I may ask...What inspired you to make this? Was it the new Zelda game that came out or were you just bored?

Thought this was just a miniature link merch-thingy, just photographed in a nice perspective to make it life-size, until I read "... papercraft model". Ho-Ly-Shit O.O NICE DONE!!!
