Paper-craft Batmobile Recreates Tumbler From The Dark Knight
Posted by Gizmodo US Edition at 12:45 AM on July 20, 2008
Despite wanting desperately to watch The Dark Knight, I still haven't gotten a chance to rush out to my nearest movie theatre and bask myself in the two-or-so-hours of nerdgasmic delight I know is waiting for me. So as the stellar reviews pour in from the papers and from friends, I need to find creative ways to scratch that Batman itch. Like papercraft! Here's an amazing Batmobile Tumbler design created by paper model expert Claudio. With hundreds of individual pieces, I bet this thing will distract me until my man in shining (black rubber) armour whisks me off to the cinema. [Technabob]

Just need to insert a model rocket in the rear end and then we will have something cool AND dangerous!

I still like the old batmobile. I've always thought the new one looks like a cross between a cockroach and the lunar rover.

Nice job.
I agree with Arvin, also printing on high quality paper helps.
My daughter loves these paper craft sites or at least when she "helps" me make stuff from them.

As someone who tried to make the R2D2 model, I'd like to let everyone know that if you were to ever attempt this, print everything out at least twice the size of an 8.5x11. Normal size and smaller is just impossible.

That is some seriously awesome design work. It can't be easy to figure out how to construct something like that out of paper.
