Wouldn't that take him hours? He would have to magnify the diagrams, and use the eraser tool to get rid of them one tiny pixel at a time. To get rid of the lines between the drawings, he would have to be extra, extra careful. And imagine doing all this with a mouse.

Well, I tried tracing the diagrams, but it's not much better. You know what, I'll be very pleased if I can just get one e-book, no biggie. I'm posting the original full diagrams on deviant art, so anyone can check it out if they like. When I have time I'll put it all on a flickr account as well.

He drew them in real life, you know, with a pencil and a paper, then scanned them into the computer. How is that even possible?? Have you ever used photoshop before??

Actually, I have no idea what you just said. I'm just guessing.

I know what you mean angrydemon

Scan a pencil drawing, open it up in Photoshop, and it's all blurry.
Then, the lines are all pixelized, some of the pixel lines are bigger than others...
Yeah, a long process.

Do the models have to be pure? I mean from a square with no glue or cuts.

The models do not need to be pure or computer drawn. Hand drawings with underlying grid are ok as well.

Just a little reminder, it's only two weeks to get your submissions in. Until now I received 36 instructions by 19 authors.

May I please remind you that CPs must be accompanied by a picture of the finished model. (ori_dragon3 that goes for you as well.)
