Amazing thread!

You are making a truly commemorative model of Curiosity!

It seems every model Zoltan lays his hands on gets the commemorative treatment! (-;

Hi Everyone.

Thanks for the compliment.

I started to build a "winch"






Frame made ​​of paper



Already looking forward to rolling up the drain ropes, not later.
The major difficulty will work, but I could not figure out anything else.




Prepare for painting






To be continued.....

Oh wow. You look like you are just one step away from making that winch actually work. I almost want to ask when you are going to launch this thing to Mars? Great job, Zoltan!

Truly amazing! Beautiful detail. To say I am seriously impressed would be an understatement.

[Daedalus]

This is definitely the work of divine inspiration. The work of thousands of micro scale angels in clean room suits.

The meticulous detail makes my brain melt, my eye's burn, and fills my heart with envy. (I WANT THAT LEVEL OF SKILL!)

Merzo, you've hit my list of masters that I must look up to for inspiration.

I am constantly debating with a couple friends who build models and props out of plastic and resin. They refuse to believe that you can get any appreciable detail on a model made of mostly (if not entirely) paper. I believe that this thread closes that debate.

Thank you for your hard work and meticulous attention to detail

[Paper Kosmonaut]

Those are nice words. And I full-heartedly agree with you.

Almost a fully functional model!!!

Way to go, Merzo!!

I respect your old school, by-hand design & construction method. This 'draw it on the computer, print it out and fold it up' stuff is crap...
