I guess some might find useful the fact that any of you can create those.

You will need:
- a copy of Starcraft 2 :D
- 3DsMax and M3 Plugin (or maybe someone knows better way of converting M3 to *.obj)
- Pepakura Designer
- 110lb (200gsm) cardstock (I trust commanderfun here)
- Color Printer
- Glue
- Knife/scissors
- Ruler

A quick guide:
- Convert your favorite unit model (the easiest way to obtain one is to extract it with Galaxy Editor) to *.obj using 3DsMax.
- Open the *.obj file in Pepakura Designer.
- Use Pepakura Designer to create paperwork print (this is a step I haven't done yet).
- Print.
- Make model.
- Take a photo.
- Be gosu.

According to Wikipedia 110lb corresponds to 300gms. I'm a complete ignorant in that matter though. I'd appreciate some help here as I plan to create such a model myself. :3

I guess the choice of paper is a pretty important one. I wouldn't like to screw something here.
I also have no idea what glue should I use.

the bunker looks total shit... hte problem is with how blizzard made the 3d models for buildings...for example, the top columns in the model go through the roof...so when building you have a huge problem...anyway i will edit the 3d model from hand later to make it possible to create a paper layout.

first off iam no finishing the map, the ramp and the outer textures...also steam will be added to teh vespine geyser.... when i have enough led's at home i also will start doing the lighning for the vespine geyser.
