paper dolls and people, they're a similar shape

i was inspired by the awesome little cut-out dolls on the conchords' official website and decided i wanted to try and make paper dolls featuring the guys. i started with bret and this is how it turned out:



i haven't actually printed it yet so for all i know the clothes might not even fit properly haha. it didn't turn out exactly how i'd imagined it, but i had a lot of fun making this anyway.

a huge thanks to hellomyfriend for making the fantastic 'great bret clothing hunt' thread! it really helped me a lot

OMG!!!!

I love it so much!!!

I especially love that he's wearing the zebra pants and stripey socks together.

That's fabulous.



I am very tempted to print it out and give it a try.

The board will resize pics to display to keep the threads the same width, but it will still be the larger size if people want to save it. So, if you want to post the larger version, it should be fine.

P.S. Please make a Jemaine version as well.

i figured the zebra pants and stripey socks would be a winning combination ;

ooh really? i had no idea, thanks for letting me know! i'm thinking of making it into a .pdf file cus that way it'll be a lot easier to print. i'd love for you to try it out since my printer is out of ink at the moment haha

i'll start working on the jemaine one asap!

[align=center:9fc6ylcs][size=200:9fc6ylcs]SO COOL!

loves it!

Holy crap! These are awesome. I can't wait for the ones.

I am pleased to report that the "
Dress Bret"
operation was a success.

I had five minutes with a cup of tea and this is what happened:





I made little paper tags to hold the clothes on:



He still kept losing his trousers until the guitar magnet saved the day.

Bret will now live on my fridge. The fridge is lonely for a Jemaine. ;
)

Excellent work!

P.S. I found that the vest is best used alone rather than with the jumper.

Sarah, I love it!!!

Now that I have seen it in action, I am tempted to make it too!!





As if my house needs more tangible evidence of my devotion for them.

omg!
the tags are a great idea! i should've thought of that earlier :-[
but i can't believe how well it goes with the guitar magnet
awesome!

oh and i updated my first post with the larger version in case someone else wants to give it a try

Definitely! This idea is just too good not to include a Jemaine

My favourite bit is the speech bubble that says "
IT'S A GITBOARD!"

This is epic! Printing now
Thanks Sam!

Hehe, I will!

Some ideas for Jem's clothing:
- His green shirt with the weird white stuff on it:


- His red button-up


- The brown shirt with the embroidered flowers:


- The denim jacket


- His hooker outfit " title="" border="0"/>
The vest and mesh tank and shorts. XD

- His robot head

- His brown and tan jacket


- This shirt and jacket combo:


- These blue shirts:



- A plain red t-shirt, also


And um, I think that's it from me. I'll let someone else take over. XD

I think it'd be cool if you added the "
reflector belt"
of Bret's as well. XD

*saves pictures* all great suggestions, thank you!

omg yes! i'll make one right now, should be fairly easy i think..

Might I add his "
I'm in the Mood"
shirt? " title="" border="0"/> And maybe his green and yellow coat from the first season (used in Think About It)?
