Link is a life size papercraft model standing around 5'5. He is made completely from 250 gsm paper (about 4x stronger then normal paper). He has foam core supports in the top and bottom of his pants, top and bottom of his boots and a ring in his waist. There is also some in the back of his shield, and in the handle of the master sword.
He can be easily unassembled for transportation. His head, torso, legs, sword, shield, and sheath are all separate. The sword can also be put into the sheath or into his hand. He can stand all on his own without any support.

Link is made from 250+ pages, the initial template is 198, but there are layers of strips of paper inside for support, and 831 pieces. I worked on him constantly for a month, working approximately 12 hours each day but sometimes that number could go up to 20.

If you are interested in making this model and have any questions, feel free to ask me, I would be more than happy to help.

The Legend of Link by *studioofmm I'm astounded that this is Papercraft, at first I thought it was carved or modeled! ( Suggested by ~ScorchTheCyndaquil and Featured by ^FrockTarts )

Can I ask a technical question? Is it printed on A4 size paper, or A3?

I'm tired of following my dreams. I'll just ask them where they're going and hook up with them later.

You should upload a person standing next to him or a good comparable object. This is great and it being over 5 feet tall is amazing! For that reason I think you should give us a better idea of the size of this model, since in the foilage it is hard to visualize. In any case, this is very unique and I look forward to seeing what you do in the future. I never thought papercrafts could be this complex and time consuming, you really are fantastic!
