Okay, so my friend recently got me back into watching the japanese anime "Medabots", and we thought it'd be cool to build a scale model of the main medabot character, Metabee.
Now, I've got the ideas down for the model, moving parts etc. All I need is some form of reference to go off, designs, blueprints. I don't have the ability to put together blueprints/designs simply from looking at the pictures of him in the show, and I can't find any good reference pics on the net.
So I had 2 ideas. Either buy a small model of Metabee and design the larger model off that, or see if somebody here had an idea as to how I might acquire some already made blueprints, specifications or designs. Cheers.
P.S. I'll be building pretty much the whole thing out of a light timber, not sure exactly what yet. I was thinking of trying to get somebody to throw together a Pepakura file for me, but I don't think it'd work, as I wouldn't be fiberglassing it, and the model is simply to big to hold together if made of cardstock alone.
