Eric Wiryanata<\/a> has created a Grumm: a Zombie Grumm<\/a>\"Zombie<\/p>\n

I’m always grateful (I don’t always show<\/a> it \ud83d\ude41 ) if someone takes the time to build a Grumm. But I know how much time it takes to create a custom, so that’s somewhat extra special!!!<\/p>\n

So I try to repay that effort if I can (I’m not always inspired by papertoy from other designers), and the model of Eric is fun to build, and the way I create customs: also fun to customize!<\/p>\n

I’m always experimenting with paper and new ways to build stuff, but not everything is used because my models (Grumm and Drukk) are very specific. When I saw Wilson the Robot<\/a> I could do some of the stuff I never could on my own models.<\/p>\n

Today I present: Wilsumm<\/strong>
\n\"Wilsumm:<\/p>\n

This image needs some explanation: <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. usually I create a skin in Illustrator<\/li>\n
  2. print\/build the model<\/li>\n
  3. see what needs improvements<\/li>\n
  4. fix it in the Illustrator<\/li>\n
  5. print\/build the model again<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This time I used the same method, but after I saw what improvements I needed to make (3), I also concluded that I’m creating the same “bad-ass” skin over-and-over again.
    \nSo I created a new skin (yes, I made 2 customs for Wilson) and made the improvements in that model and rebuild that<\/em> model.
    \nThe image that you see here is really a w.i.p. model, but the improvements are done in the download link.
    \n(send me a good<\/strong> photo of Wilsumm, and I will replace this image with the one you send me, with your name, website, etc \ud83d\ude42 )<\/em><\/p>\n

    Wilsumm by Matthijs Kamstra aka [mck]<\/strong> Zip size 0.4MB <\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

    The .ZIP file contains a .PDF
    \n(You can use freeware like     FilZip<\/a> or 7zip<\/a> to extract a .ZIP-file and read a .PDF with Acrobat<\/a> or Foxit<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n

    This model is not complex to build, but if you need some help building the basic Wilson visit the instruction page<\/a> (at the bottom of the page), but my customization you just need to analyze my photos. <\/p>\n

    Wilson is a “doodle” (Eric used this to describe his model) papercraft and some parts don’t work like I want them to (the feet for example).
    \nMy version doesn’t need duct tape to keep him standing: just put some weight in the feet before you glue it shut! (I used dry rice, but nuts\/bolds, dry sand, putty, coins, etc will work just fine)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
