Man, you have to be going thru the printer ink! Worth it though. This reminds me..my friends and I once made a set of dice for D&D when we were kids. What a pain in the.....
Oh, your so cool, Brewster!

.
I made a neat little Halloween village a few years ago using the projects from
ravensblight and here. If you have Photoshop on your system you can open the PDFs
in it and scale the images up and down.

Too bad these paper models don't store too well. Mine got smooshed. I just don't
have the time to redo these every few years. If you do have room to store them go to
Kinkos and print the images using their color laser printer. That way moisture in the air
won't cause the ink to fade and run.

And Andy's idea of using spay adhesive does work but if you go with too thick a
cardboard it won't fold well. Works great for the base. Posterboard works ok but it's still
tough to fold.

I also made some cool pop-up cards that same year for my friends for that other
holiday in December. Here's the link. If you look under Paper Craft you can find a
couple awesome Halloween projects.

My printer eventually had a nervous breakdown.

I really like the Ravensblight manor house, but I'll have to work my way up to that.

spook you really are addicted lol good work though
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!
