Free-ish mechanical paper dragon kit

By at 1:18 pm Wednesday, Jan 25

The maker of this gorgeous mechanical papercraft dragon has a cool business model: you can download the PDFs necessary to build the automata for free, but if you build it successfully, he asks for a $5 donation. The mechanical motion of this one is amazing, check out the animation. Link (via Paperforest)

Update: Chris sez, "This easy to assemble paper dragon is a 'hollow face' illusion, so it appears to watch you as you walk across the room."
