Hey guys, been doodling around with this project for a while, and now it's ready to throw out there.
This is the first of (perhaps) a few papercraft ski sets, starting with:



Check it out and download the PDF at:
http://www.paperski.com

In case you're confused, it's basically a free print and make it yourself ski toy.
It's got some cool features like buttery skis, hand-draggy arms, and a tree for him to jib around on, like the one 20 seconds into his goddamn rad part in Everyday is a Saturday. It can be put together with or without glue and he can take his skis on and off, so hopefully you can mix and match skis later.

This isn't really a project I want to keep slugging along on if nobody's interested, but I'm hoping some people will have fun with it, and if you know a good ski scene (a skier and a feature), hit me with it and it might happen!! Cheers

Try taping the skis to the feet instead so you can pull them into blunts and mutes.

The god of big mountain snowlerblading, Saucerboy!
Comes with a bunch of super important big mountain equipment (kitchen utensils), his pro-model saucer, the snowblades you’ve always wanted, and a spare bottle of Jacks. Also includes a backcountry booter to launch any of your paperski figures off, and a smaller jump to pop them onto rails.

Yo! Paperski has a facebook page now: https://www.facebook.com/paperski
I'm going to be posting updates over there, because I feel like a bit of a d*ck bumping my thread all the time... but I'm still on NS for sure!

Lost a bit of steam lately - since this is a just-for-fun project your comments, likes, shares etc are the only motivator for me to make more cool stuff, so check out the page if you're interested :)
