Wargames Paper craft Part III








In the third and forth part of my series on Papercraft for RPG & Waregames I'm going to look at Miniatures figures for you.


Id like to start by thanking everyone who has contributed so far, Roleplaing and wargaming can be an expensive hobby an in these times of austerity its hard to be able to justify the cost of a hobby. Paper models still cost ( printing etc.) but they enable the thrifty gamer to save some hard earned cash.


Genre.


Im going to concentrate this article on Sci Fi and Space related including 40K, Part IV will be more geared towards fantasy.


One of the problems with war gaming even when dealing with small skirmishes is the cost of miniatures. I simply cannot afford 30-40 miniatures however to print off 4-5 sheets is within my budget.


I have provided below a few examples of the files that can be found and a few links with each website listing




Zen Paper Miniatures





The zen website is a mine of information and can be found on the link below, this page details mainly with 40k paper miniatures but some of them could be used for other sci fi games. Get on over to http://zenseeker.net/PaperMiniatures/Warhammer40K.htm


Paper wargames


Another fantastic site is Paper wargames, now some of this site is in Spanish but you can get the idea of where things are and what he offers easily.
