excuse the ignorance, but what is a master unfolder?

 

[tlither]

Someone like Ral Partha or Belakor and others who are extremely good at unfolding pep

 

[flying squirl]

thanks dudes, glad you like it.
bdw, if you have any unfolds or the like feel free to post it in here or even if your workin on the model(s)

[...]remember FS sleep is for the weak!

yea, your right, and on that note:






its a set of med-def forearms which have all the main details but isnt too high on polys.

there's also two refrence/mesurement strips lined up with em. along with that its got a texture that, like the new torso, you can apply to colour them differently to help with unfolding n what not.

have fun.

[Jax Archillies]

ok. than what is unfolding?

 

[23Magnum]

Of course you release an easier forearm after I nearly drove myself insane trying to get the other one right.

Thanks though, I was hoping someone might re-tackle that one.

Btw, I see you adapted my idea a little for the Chest. Good idea.

 

[flying squirl]

Unfolding, as we refer to it, is cutting up the pep files so that they'd be easier to assemble, then organising and sorting the split peices so that they use the least amount of card and, sometimes, if the unfolder is realy good they organis it on the pages so that each model/part are organised and layed out individualy, and if your realy lucky they even sort the tabs so that it's easier to assemble. but onyl if your lucky.

it's quite tedious and I'de definatly consider the unfolding part even more difficult and brain-draining then the actual modeling end of things.

EDIT: @mag: hell yea, i was holdin off till you were done. XD im prity sure i got a few other people with that too. XD bugger!!! i knew i forgot to add something! i totaly forgot to add your liner idea! i kinda got it a bit with the supports but i didnt want to do it woth em so i could add it in.

It's ok, you can add it if you want. No big deal. Did one of your testers try it out yet?
