2013 Honda NSX concept

Have not touched this for few months, still a work in progress. Hope I captured the rough shape, not thinking of adding more detail to it though.

Did you actually build it already?

That unfolding in the pictures did not work too well for me, need to be fixed. I did not finish the test build. The textures were from some photos I found in the internet, need new textures or at least clean up the existing one to remove all the dark area, and I am no texture artists. This could take a while depends on how much spare time I get.

Finally clean up the model and textures and got the test build done. The paper model is harder to put together than what I initially thought. Papakura seems to have some bugs that causing some faces unfolded to wrong shapes. I had to cut and modify some pieces when I put everything together.

Anyhow it really looks good already!
Maybe it would be better to split the model into more parts? Judging from your latest picture I would suggest to split the hood from the grill, the wheel arches from the upper body parts and the roof from the side parts. I know this way a rather simple model will receive many single peaces but I guess this will optimize the building process a lot!

raiko92i Thanks
mcclane Thanks for the suggestion. I split the model into more parts based on your suggestions.

For those who don't mind this model's rough state, here is the Pepakura pdo file.

You can print it using the free Viewer app. If you own Pepakura Designer app, feel free to unfold and rearrange the parts.

Here is the Wavefront 3D obj model file if you want to modify/re-texture this model.

Thank you very much Alan! Really appreciate your work and efforts!

Cheers!

Thanks Alan

FYI, in Pepakura Designer, if you go to : 'settings' and then 'other settings'
you can set and edit the quality of the folding lines (Mountain & Valley Fold Lines)
for example... line = 1 and slit = 12 makes the folding still visible but not so obvious.

Keep up the good work !

@ mcclane . You are welcome.
@ keroliver. Thanks for the nice Designer tip. Will try it out later.
