hmm, if it was maya i'd be able to help you out, but i've never even heard of alias studio before.

Alias studio is kind of mayas father. Not really used in 3d anim, a very strong tool for hard-surface modeling. I wonder anyway??? People use it still?
I have not heard from it in a while. I dont even know if they are any new releases of that soft. If so i wona look in too it immediately .

And hey the toon shader is awesome,if you made it with 3rd category software even more awesome

Yeah, it's mostly for surface modeling and not for animation. People still use it, there are new releases every year. A license is like, $20,000 but you can download a student copy for free (or torrent).

Is there anyone who knows how to get Blender make a 3D model that you then can print off and turn into a a really awesome 3D paper model?

I've read that you can, but I can't get Blender to import a jpg image let alone make a 3D replica. So if anyone knows how to do this your help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

it's a pretty complicated process...
it's not as simple as telling the program to make a paper model.

Heres a tutorial for ya: Creating paper models - Blender Artists Forums

Good luck man, you should post it up if you get it done, i'd love to see it.

I've always been interested in seeing how people model anime characters, since i tend to do more realistic stuff.
