A New Game

In my wandering around the internet I found something most intriguing... Flipit Paper Combat.

I was piddling around looking for paper templates for Storm Talons (the aren't any yet, when I find one, I'll post something here.) and found a guy who A.) Really likes making Eli Patoroch paper templates and B.) made a tabletop wargame that uses paper template models, including terrain, which are free to download from his site, along with rules.

Meet the twins!

I finally finished both the Paper Landspeeders... and I'm willing to bet most people won't be able to tell unless they picked it up. In any case here's some pictures after paint + random bits I couldn't reliably replicate in paper (the heavy flamers are from the Baal predator kit, and the Marine pilots are the gunners from Rhino kits. I also added the little exhaust fans from the underside of the Drop Pod for engines.)

Pics after the jump.

Paper Speeder Pt. 1

Well, I jumped into the kiddy pool of paper tanks by starting with a Space Marine Land Speeder model (I need two for my Copper Dragons list I want to bring to the 750 pt local tourny this month...) Logic dictates that smaller model = less work, or so I thought. The parts are much more fiddly that anything I've dealt with before, but the model is definitely coming together, and after I get the hang of what goes where the next one(s) should go quicker.

Here's some pictures of the progress so far...

PAPER!!!

I think I might have been bitten by the Paperhammer bug again... I might start a Paper Imperial Guard Tank army (with an appropriate number of heavy weapons squads, and other required infantry models, made of plastic of course... flats are just tacky... IMO)

The pictures are not my work, but definitely examples of what the assembled models can look like with a little time/patience. These particular models were built using Eli Patoroch templates (Some crazy Russian guy...) The level of detail is ridiculous and he covers a wide variety of models (including Xenos, believe it or else!)













In any case here is a collection of links to some of the best templates for paper tanks I have ever found... a word of warning, there are A LOT of duplicates, but none of the collections individually are complete, so, there ya go...
