Hubert de Lartigue has been creating more X-Wing fighters for the Rebel Alliance’s battle against the nasty Empire; Hubert has been crafting one of science fiction’s most distinctive spacecraft designs from Paris Metro tickets, using only a scalpel and a folding tool (an art I’m told is kirigami, as opposed to origami which I think doesn’t use cuts). Hubert has posted up a how-to tutorial on his own site – its in French but since its largely pictorial I doubt that’s much of a problem to anyone who doesn’t speak even basic French; obtaining the relevant Parisian public transport tickets might be, of course!
