Oh Goody! Fun with paper.
The
Paper Forest blog has more links to paper projects than you can shake a lamb's stick tail in the mud at. Them gots links to a paper version of the Game of Life, lots of origami, and tons of paper models of all sorts of things, from steam engines (huh?) to Yahama Motor Corps motorcycles, as well as their
lions and
tigers and
bears, oh my!
And
maned sloths, too!
File that one under:
HOME > ENTERTAINMENT > PAPER CRAFTS > RARE ANIMALS > WORLD - MANED SLOTH
We hope you will enjoy our selection of "Rare Animals of the World"
I especially like
Yamaha's Paper Crafts homepage with a picture of a menagerie of wild animals and.. um.. motorcycles. A match made in heaven.
And finally, how about the print for their
page for summer - which consists of nothing but beetles - they manage to get a plug for their motorcycles into it but even better, it just
smacks of cute li'l japanese-2-english translation:
Summer is the time for enjoying yourself outdoors under the sun. We may be drawn to scenes of sunbathing on the beach or cruising on the sea with the salty breezes. Our hearts may turn inland and long for the fresh air of the mountains or the exhilaration of motorcycle touring.
But communing with the insects of the woods is also fun. Do you remember the joy of the moment when you caght your first cicada or firefly or stag beatle in a net as a child? Let Yamaha's website revive those happy memories.
Oh those Japanese, what will they think of next, cartoons about sex, robots, and tentacles?
