Home for WALL-E and EVE

Finally, a complete home for WALL-E and EVE. Actually, last year, I have made a plastic container for them but without a nice looking background. During the last weekend, I found a suitable background from the Guardian promotion catalog which was about to be dumped =)

Even the umbrella positions are matching for both of them. On the left side are the compacted rubbish cubes.

Refer to the making of WALL-E and EVE for details on the models.

Paper model of EVE

Finally, I have completed the EVE model early this morning. Although only have a few pieces, it took a long time to cut them out. It was because the shapes were more rounded and had lots of flaps for gluing. The head and the body each had 16 "fingers", it was really a time consuming job to cut the pieces. Besides that, gluing each part was quite challenging and fun as for the rounded shapes.

The head and hands for EVE are move-able, but not for WALL-E. Both models and instructions can be found at http://www.paper-replika.com/ and also other Wall-E models.

Paper model of Wall-E

Two months ago, I have folded the Wall-E, designed by Brian Chan. Actually, the model was just a trial model as I made it from a printing paper. Therefore, the final model was not a good as I hope for.

Today, I completed a paper model of it which can be found here. The cutting process was started on Friday after work, but not consider "full-time" working on it as I was watching "Snowy Mountain Flying Fox" series. Wanted to finish it and watch other series =) During cutting, I tried to add-in more flaps for the model to stick together better. And also there was no other instructions on to fix the parts together, only have a "shadowy" blow-up view of the model. Therefore, I have mistakenly glued the eyes part shut without the neck portion connecting to it. So, I had to carefully peel-up the back portion of the eyes and sticked th neck to it.
Btw, I have also just watched Wall-E in cinema yesterday.

This is the only diagram instruction you will see in the file. I added the instruction for the neck.
