Nice! I ain't setting foot in your yard! Those things look sinister!

Did you use Pepakura?

[dwmh]

Very impressive.

I'd love to make something like that. Is there a computer program you use to determine the shape and size?

[Larry4406]

That is awesome!

I'm a big Doberman fan- those are very very cool, both in composition and execution. Thanks for posting.

Do a google search for Pepakura models. The program allows you to print out paper patterns which have cut lines and fold lines. I believe you can modify the scale. There is a huge library of all kinds of models, animals, vehicles, masks and so on.

That is quite the animal form.
Chilling breed actually, for me.
My late night deliveries as a young man, to wrecking yards with only one light on a post outside the chain link .... paw sounds loping on gravel, silence, sudden slavering snarling jaws opposite my face ..... 6ft in the air .... heart stops... face wet with dawg-slobber .... back to town.

Long circular drive, late at night, another delivery, large quiet (dark) estate, leaving package on stoop, paws loping on concrete, gaining, sudden piercing pain in my leg ... through my new Levi wranglers ...

Dobermans can be evil. Those ears, that head ... give me shivers, yet.

Nice artwork, though.
