Judging by the photos on her Flickr page, I'd estimate it's pretty close to 1/18 scale.

Something like this would be awesome for dio stories. :D

Why anyone would want to recreate ANYTHING from that show is a mystery to me, but I cannot deny the work. Very cool, especially if it's all paper.

Friends? Really? I hope he made this to show his love for Jennifer Aniston.

Hell, he should of made Jerry's apartment from Seinfeld.

Newman.

I really really hope I'm still into this in another 5-10 years when 3D home printers are the norm and we could just print out shit like this...not that I want to make a Friends apartment...but think of the headsculpts and dio parts we could just hvae at our disposal.

Lazy b!tch...they showed the bathroom and the two bedrooms (maybe even the closet at the end of the hall) over the course of the ten years the show was on...

Seriously though, that's pretty cool...so where's the 1:18th Friends to go in it?

I hear ya. Like that medical story, where they used the printer to print the tool they needed to save that persons life. We will be able to almost immediately print any part we need. Will be awesome!

In a 1:18 Cobra interment camp. Cobra Commander thinks that Friends fucking sucked, too.

I don't understand the friends hate. Like any tv show that runs for that long, it had it's ups and downs, but in it's time, it was pretty damn good.

Then again, I don't understand when people hate on Seinfeld too.

Maybe you had to be just the right age. I was in college when friends started. Our dorm didn't have cable, and me and my buddies couldn't afford a real TV. One of them got a VCR for xmas, and we hooked the tuner in it to a coat hanger and a B&W colecovision monitor. Then all of our roommates and g/fs huddled on the couch on thursday evenings to watch an hour of must-see-tv in tiny greyscale. Both of those shows hold a special place for me.

Don't you have a "Shit we watch on TV" thread to talk about how awesome bad TV shows like HIMYM are? :proposetoast:

That's pretty impressive, but I gotta agree with KT on this one. That show sucked balls.

I never watched a single episode of Friends so I can't comment, but I can't deny that the artistry of that paper diorama is truly impressive. :)

I'm sure you'll get that show in a few years. It's one of those trade-offs. You live in the future, except for TV shows. :wave:

:slap:

It was on TV all the time when I was growing up but I never got into it. Not even the bit where Jennifer Aniston strips down to reveal she's wearing Princess Leia's metal bikini. :)



OK, maybe just a little bit.

She's gotten hotter over the years. You seen the new trailer for that awful movie where she's a stripper and she and Jason Sudeikis go on a drug run from Mexico to the US?

Lots of amazing things can be done with paper. I can't find the link of course but I remembered someone making awesome sculptures using Magic: the Gathering cards.
