I used to come here a lot, but it's been a looooong time ago I'm afraid...

I'm still a big Tomb Raider fan though, and I also like to make papercraft
models (that's where you print out a page of parts, cut them out and fold
them, and then glue them together to create your very own 3D model of your
favourite game/anime/movie character/whatever).

Combining these two is extra fun of course! ;o)

I already made a couple of papercraft Tomb Raider models, and today I
released a new one (the Extreme Depth Suit from Chronicles). I really love
the look of the classic series, but I also like the nextgen games, so I'll
probably make new papcraft models from those as well in the future.

You can download the templates from http://www.kickme.to/ninjatoes if you
want to try it out (and if you like them and can't get enough,
http://saschacraft.blogspot.com/ liked it so much he made several other
models of his own for you to try as well!)

I hope you like 'em, have fun building!

looks totally life like. Lara on quad bike is also like she just jumped
out from the game.

this has got to be a post of the year, thanks!

I'm glad you guys like 'em! I've been replaying Tomb Raider 1 recently
actually, and I can't believe they stopped putting in the T-Rex ever since
The Last Revelation, so I made a little video and papercraft tribute about
"The Beasts of Tomb Raider"... ;o)

Have fun!

The T-Rex was in TRA.

I suppose it had to be really, though.

Aren't they just awesome!? I've already recruited ninjatoes to write a
piece for my blog. Can't wait to see it. :)

Yeah, but TRA was basically TR1, so I count that as a remake, not as a new
game made some time after TR3. ;o) I might make that one too, but not right
now though. Now that I have to write a piece for Stella, I don't have *any*
time for my hobby anymore of course, ugh.............. ;o)
