How is this possible? Remarkable StarCraft II papercraft photo

I've seen a lot of papercraft in my day, but nothing quite so unreal as this.

Crafter and presumed sorcerer "Constable" is responsible for these face-meltingly dedicated paper models based on StarCraft II. My eyes are absolutely convinced these are toys, rather than the mere result of expert-level cutting and pasting.

That is ... that's all I've got. I'm just going to continue sitting here in awe, if it's fine with you.

I don't mean to be a troll.. this is some very good papercraft but I wouldn't go as far as calling it "face-melting". The work is indeed very clean and polished but I've seen paper models with much more detail in the past.

Still, given he probably designed them too that's a pretty awesome accomplishment.

That’s better than I could ever dream of doing. And there is always one in the bunch that has to let everyone know that it is good, but they have seen/done better...I will never understand why people feel the need to say stuff like that...why can't people; look, think to themselves well awesome but I have seen/done better, and then move on? Is it really too much to ask people to just try to be nice for once? This one-up-man-ship stuff gets so old. It's everywhere....when did it become the norm? Gumby, not trying to bash you sport but you knew it wasn't quite right to put your comment because you started it with "Don't mean to be a Troll but"...so knowing trolls post comments like yours you wrote it anyway? Sorry, but you just couldn't leave it alone...so neither could I.

Wow. The turbines or w.e they're called must have been really difficult to make with that level of detail.

OMG, there's even more! This is awesome. I made some Papercraft myself when I was a kid and it's really difficult. Getting so much detail into a model is mind blowing.

Seriously, I'd buy those. Much cooler than plastic.

now is this actual 8.5x11 thin type lined paper. or is this heavier poster board type paper? if it was done with normal thin lined paper i would be very impressed. but gluing or taping stiff thicker paper, just seems more like gluing a model together.

Very wow. I am in the midst of working on my macro/micro management and this, well, this, does nothing to help me with that. But it's very cool. Maybe it's inspiring. No, it isn't. I am already inspired. But it's super cool.

ElisabethinCA, lighten up a little. Surely you've seen the internet before, people argue and act like dicks all the time.

When I read gumby_truckers post my eyes did roll and I let out a "uugghhh".

I honestly don't care if you've seen better, I haven't and this is awesome.
