More Geektastic Papercraft Projects: Iron Man Mark IV and Geoff Peterson

Written by mike on April 27th, 2010

The upcoming Iron Man sequel features an updated suit of armor, and now you can make a miniaturized paper version for yourself. It is a bit more complicated than beginner papercraft projects and doesn’t have a list of instructions, so make sure to keep your printer ink refreshed if you have to start over. Get the printout here.

Also, the Mark V armor (the suitcase one – how much must that weigh??) is papercrafted too. Check it out.

Speaking of Iron Man: check out the article I wrote in the current issue of WIRED magazine: Geek Justice League: Caped Crusader Billionaires We’d Like to See. A fun piece to go along with the soon-to-premiere Iron Man 2 movie. As a big comic fanatic growing up, getting to write about superheroes is still amazingly fun. And I love that Wired illustrated the “geeks” very closely to the descriptions I submitted for them. Enjoy!

A simpler but no less geekily awesome paper project is the Geoff Peterson “Cubee.” Anyone who’s been keeping up with Mythbusters’ Grant Imahara or watching the Craig Ferguson show know that Grant recently made a robot sidekick for Craig, named Geoff Peterson. It’s a work of comedic and robotic art. And now you can pay homage to a great late night talk show moment by making your own paper version. Get the file here.
