Papercraft: Thunderbolt Fighter

Papercraft Imperial Thunderbolt Fighter

Something a little different in this post. I came across a template for the Forge World Imperial Navy Thunderbolt Fighter and it has been sitting in my downloads folder staring at me for a while. So with money very tight at the moment with Christmas and increasing energy bills in the UK, I thought I would take a break from the normal Warhammer 40k bits and have a go at this papercraft model.

Several things have come of this. 1 - It is really fun, don't knock it until you have tried it. 2 - It only take a few nights for a simple model like the Thunderbolt. 3 - it's FREE, apart from knife blades, Glue and Paper. 4 - Yes I have caught the bug and want to do more. So below are some more pictures of my first papercraft model and also a little explanation of why I want to do more of them and why you should have a go too.

Imperial Enforcer & Cyber Mastiff

Imperial Enforcer

This is an awesome model and also a member of my Xenos Inquisitors retinue. I managed to get hold of this Forge World event only figure from ebay at a very reasonable price. Unlike my Inquisitor, I wanted to keep the original model in tack as much a possible, but I did want to change it slightly. So here is the Enforcer and below is the making of the base and his Cyber Mastiff companion.

In game he will count as an acolyte with Boltgun, Las pistol (when added) and Carapace armour with melta bombs. The Cyber Mastiff will count as an arco-flagellant. Not sure if I want to add a scope to the Boltgun or not? may look to much.
