Star Wars Origami

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the cheaper-than-legos dept.

Obiwan Kenobi writes "This has to be the strangest thing I've run across in quite awhile. Star Wars Origami features about a dozen pieces of Star Wars vehicles and characters complete with diagrams on how to make them yourself. And just when I thought this was an anomaly, the links section includes all kinds of great Star Wars Origami, such as this one (dubbed Stare Wares) and this one featuring a wicked Destroyer Droid complete with the shiny metal finish."

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned Star Wras , an origami recreation of the Battle of Yavin.

    What if a Japanese film company had decided to remake Star Wars on a budget using the noble art of folded paper? Origami fighters, cardboard gun emplacements...This film is the result of such a question.
