Life-size Papercraft R2-D2

DeviantART member Adisko built a life-size papercraft of everyone's favorite Star Wars droid, R2-D2! The Pepakura PDO template for the lovable robot (available here) consists of 76 pages of parts and is sure to deplete the ink in your printer. ;) The template is based on a 3D model by Ivanproff and unfolded by Cuguel. Along with C-3PO, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, R2-D2 is one of only four characters to have appeared in all six Star Wars movies to date.

    1. Open with Pepakura Viewer (NOT Pepakura Designer) and you will not need a password.

  2. One question 1 year later : what kind of paper and size do you use to do it in life-size?

    1. I would recommend using 110 lb (200 gsm) cardstock. Regular printing paper will not be strong enough.

  3. Can I have a PDF version?
