Those are kinda cool. I don't know how well they will blow up, though. Any idea how big you want to make them?

I'd like to make one as close to scale as possible.I figure print then out on 11x17 paper and use foamcore for the structure. If I dont make one full size, I may opt for the 1/2 size shipping containers. Is there a free version of photoshop anywhere? __________________ "If it doesnt have a fire coming out the ass end, it isnt worth flying"

Try opening the PDF in whatever photo editing software you have. It may let you select one page at a time to rasterize then go from there. (I've only used Photoshop so I can't be much help.) __________________ My JoeDios photos \| Flickr

I don't have a Joe display to put it in at the moment, so I wasn't going to build all the internal structure up.

A GI Joe team version, or maybe a hi-tech, metal looking crate! __________________ Read Hammerfel's Dio Story, "Disciple" here My Want List - Help me complete my Dios!
