6ft Gundam

So, I may have bitten off far more than I can chew, but I'll see how things go. I noticed on Paper Replika. com that someone has upscaled a Unicorn Gundam x5. So, I've downloaded the files (the easy bit in any build), and have printed out the head and started to build. To give a sense of scale here, the head is 18 A4 sheets of parts, the legs, for example, are a total of 129 A4 sheets of parts. This is going to consume a forest ! Luckily the mech is broken down into sections so I'll print each section at a time - torso next once head finished. If worst comes to worst I could construct it as a bust model and add the waist and legs etc later on.
If I ever finish the whole thing I have no idea where to put it in our house !, plus our cat will most probably take exception to it and shred it anyway.
Beware - papermodelling is bad, bad, bad !
