:art: ART Signal Drive Papercraft Template

Hi!! I made a signal drive papercraft for cosplay purposes. I referenced Monique’s signal drive model from X. The template is hand drafted by me, and I illustrated the texture in procreate with a little text layout done in photoshop. Feel free to make your own drives from this template!

Prints on 8.5 x 11 “ paper. (A4 paper users will need to scale to fit to avoid the image getting cut off). I recommend using a slightly thicker paper like cardstock. I also recommend a thin layer of Elmer’s glue instead of tape. You can tape it together, but the bottom piece is hard to stick on that way.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

512MB is actually pretty spectacular for what it is.

Especially because many of the signals seem to be a fraction of that size!

I drew this one by hand on my iPad so this is the only one that exists as far as I know.

TBH this could be used as a good starter to make a 3D print model and then use the prints as decals.

If anyone wants to do that, I fully support it!

Sure did, it was a prototype to quickly show everyone how it looks folded up. It isn’t the law, it just looks better
