fixn bumble bee to stand on its own

i recently finished building the bumble bee paper model of the movie "Transformers" from the paperinside website. i can't seem to keep it standing on its own. i had it posed differently but it just keeps falling off. so i had the leg joints glued fixed and added some paper clip stoppers for added support to keep it from bending. before, i made a stand from a thick tie wire hanger but i didn't like how the model looked like as it was suspended and the wire was in the way of its legs. anyway, i hope i get this done already since one of my favorite paper model sites is working on OP "optimus prime" and is near completion. can't wait to start building it.

new logo

was so preoccupied lately on lots of things, didn't have time to update my blog...
anyway, i took time to make a new logo today. it's very crude but i like it, very nationalistic. making a logo is hard, took the whole day to come with a concept but perhaps if i were a graphic artist or had it done professionally things would have been different. since i'm not so here it is, an isometric view of a cube with the national colors red, blue, white and yellow representing a 3 dimension object for paper modeling. i should make a paper model of my logo for a start, that would be original.

my Vespa 150

here is one of my papermodels I built from paper-replika.com a year ago, the Vespa 150. I'm not sure of the scale it's in but it is a big model. It looks really nice when placed on your desk to impress your workmates. This is an old picture with the British flag accents, which I later painted to a blue shade color. It is now in display on my wifes office cubicle on top her desktop pc. Will post the new pictures soon...
