Looking for a project? Well, here are a few models of Curiosity to try your hand at.

This is the first one. There are two versions from the same instructions.


Here are the instructions:  MarsScienceLab_Rover_v4.pdf ( 2.63MB ) Number of downloads: 5742


This is another one that has some different details.


Here's the link: http://www.paper-replika.com/index.php?opt...p;Itemid=200144

If you want to download it, the model requires your OK to a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.
Basically, click the "I agree" radial button, submit and the model is yours.

Then if you want to take it to a completely new level, take a look at what this guy is doing

Have fun!

I finished my model this afternoon. Took about a week of evenings and a lot of patience.


The grid it's sitting on has 1cm squares marked out.

The good thing about having the model parts on the PDF is that you can easily scale it up or add bits before you print it out.
I added a few details like the actual photo of the ChemCam and Mastcam cameras.

Still a few more refinements to go, but it worked out OK.
Once you have the basic parts, you could refine details as much as you like.
