Very Cool Papercraft Optical Illusion for Your Desk

Apr

As I was waiting for a REALLY long query to run this afternoon, I ran across this little paper model dragon you can print out and assemble. Because of how it's built, once you've got it sitting on your desk, it REALLY looks like it's following you.

I figured it was going to be something like the eyes in paintings that are just positioned right and have that slight movement. Then I took a look at the demonstration video. Now I think I've got a reason to buy ink for my inkjet printer and make this thing.

Too bad I didn't find this in time to build one and bring it with to my nephew's birthday party later today.

    I made one a couple of years ago, and they are just as amazing as the video makes it look.
