Here is something new for me, I finally decided to try a figure (my five year old grandson may have had input).
Anyhoo, this is a pepakura model so there are no real "instructions". So I started from the bottom and worked my way to the top. Firstly I had to convert it from A4 to Letter size, which was accomplished in the PDF viewer, then I was good to go.
I started with the feet and made little envelopes to hold 10 pennies each for foot. Now remember this is the first one of these beasties I have tried so I tried to form the fold lines, not realizing they were really necessary (these show up pretty well on the 3D side of the pepakura viewer. as I worked up the legs I started to loose those "creases". When you look at the pictures you will see what I mean.
The parts fit really well with a couple of exceptions, I had trouble with the inside of the elbows, and the head. I just massaged the elbow parts carefully 'til I got them to fit. The head was an entirely different problem. First it seems to small (I built it as the size in the kit) and secondly the Captain has a severe under bite which I could not fix. There is also a piece on the jawline that I had to trim.
I stuffed the ol' Capt. full of toilet paper to make sure he holds his shape and below are pictures of the finished product.
