Japanese Origami Super GT style
By: GTcars January 31st, 2010
Take some cardboard, double sided tape, a pizza cutter, glue, an Epson printer and build your own!
This Epson Nakajima Racing Honda Super GT class car was made for the Tokyo Auto Show entirely out of cardboard. This beats the previous clay models that I have seen to date. I bet it was made from recycled cardboard too.
They made the model to 1/24th scale first, to make sure it was proportionate based on photos. Then the artists enlarged the prints to make the car full scale and ready for a life size product. It took more then 2 weeks to complete and many flat sheets of cardboard.
Pretty neat nonetheless…
