Hi Redeye - long time no hear :D how's it going?

Love your Marvin - that's the beauty of paper models - you can scale them up up UP to your own personal requirements, and the extra detail on the hands etc. looks great. Oh and the head scale looks spot on too.

Flippin' excellent!

Thanks BazookaJo & GaryPilsworth for sharing. I've read all of Douglas Addams novels and always enjoyed the misadventures of Marvin and company. I even still listen to the audiobook versions. Prone to the ones read by the author. But they're all good. Douglas is sorely missed but I was glad that his wife allowd Eoin Colfer to finish the series with "And Another Thing...Part Six of Three".

Since I'm new to the papermodel scene I'm gonna wait to build these until I gain some more experiance so I can give it the justice it's do.

Thanks again,

Rick

Cheers Redeye - and it looks great at that size - I'm just keeping mine in scale with commercial headknockers.

I will def. release a resized/scale head, but I'm working on ford Prefect ATM, who will have both the towel & guide & electronic thumb, so if you are prepared to wait a little longer you will be able to scale them up and transplant them onto your Marvin figure ;D

Your welcome - never really gel'd with Eoin Colfer's take, but for me the first 2 books were the best of the bunch anyway, which were never really matched, let alone surpassed even by Douglas himself...

Hey Joe, Couldn't agree more about the first two books they are the best. Also forgot to say nice touch with the ticket tape from eddie. Looking forward to seeing how your Ford design turns out. Are you thinking about doing the Heart of Gold in the future?

"Share and enjoy..."
