So some of you may have noticed in the past couple of weeks I havnt been participating in many of the discussions, now my explanation as to why. I like origami, making stuff with paper. And when my friend showed me how to make a motorcycle, I couldnt help myself.

Built it on my desk, I had pictures of the whole process but they seemed to have walked off.

Set it atop my tower.

Thats where it sits for all to see.



You can find instructions to my motorcycle and others here(Sorry, only Yamaha, I would have preferred Kawasaki myself). Have fun .

Oh, if anyone is having trouble making one, I have learned a couple tips and tricks from my motorcycle, the videos on their site are also a great help. Feel free to ask for help from me if you need it.

EDIT: More pictures below!

, it took me maybe 3 days had I worked on non stop. Most of the time comes from waiting for the glue to dry, but I would work on perhaps the engine while the wheel dried or something.

Tip-Dont use lots of glue, less is more, way more!

I didnt even think it would be that HUGE whenever I started making it. But after getting down to tiny parts like the foot pedals, had it been smaller, it would have been impossible. Its about 12 inches long, and 6 inches tall. It took 24 sheets of paper (I screwed up a lot and had to reprint >.<)

Anywho, just a couple of fun angle shots for you guys.
