Hi guys. I recently found an awesome looking papercraft model on /po/ that I decided to build myself. After consulting Rasse, I went out and searched for the template at the link watermarked onto the model I found. Here are the results:

Getting started





All parts complete - Unassembled




The Torso's Complete !



The Final Product




Overall I guess I am happy with him. There are multiple glue stains and creases over his body but those will stop with more practice. This is my fourth attempt at Papercraft, jftr (The first being Balrog (), the second being a smaller, more detailed Balrog and the third being an incomplete Mario)

I will edit in Rommy's messages to all you FFS people soon.

Ha, that's adorable, chewey. GJ!

<3 It's so cute, you should mail him to me

Aww. Awesome. Have you photos of other ones??

Here is with the rest of the gang:


And his special message to all of you ~

haha chewey ^___^ those are superb. even mario, i feel a bit sorry for him though.

:)

What happened to your Mario? He was in pretty good shape in the picture you showed me the other day.

Those are quite excellent sir

I have no idea what they're real names are so I just call them Cats. If any of you Japanesu people know please fill me in !

Here are the results of my fifth papercraft attempt:

The gluing is really sloppy on this one. Some of the joints aren't connected properly. No glue stains this time though - I've learned from Rommy.

Overall I think they took me two and half hours or so~

EDIT: I just realised that Mario makes an appearance in most of these photos which I didn't intend at all. Still awesome though

awesome monitor and awesome job.

where do you get the shapes for these figures?

I got them while hanging around /v/ and /po/, mostly. I can upload the templates for people if they want.

Also I am building a friend for Rommy.

Up next is my sixth papercraft attempt: LeoLeo. He is basically Rommy but with a different skin colour and a beard - He's awesome.

Here's how it all went down:

I had a lot less trouble with Leo Leo than I did with Rommy. All up I think he took me about 2 and half hours and a lot of my gluing is cleaner too.

I'm considering making another Rommy-like model yet, too.

goddamn chewey

you are making me want to do this

save any cool templates id like for me

chewey is it supposed to look like leoleo is doing rommy's butt!?

also really coolbeans man <3!

So so cool~

Up next is my Seventh papercraft attempt: Snake in a Box.
This is definitely the most difficult template I've worked with so far and probably the worst results out of all of my models (excluding Mario). You'll have to forgive the huge gap from "Preparing to Glue" to "The Final Product" - I was in a rush with this one and taking photos completely escaped my mind.

Here are the results:

This is totally awesome.

when i first read "snake in a box" i thought it was an actual snake in a box.

Chewey, it's all so very lovely <3

Up next is my eighth and ninth attempt: KissKissKiss and some Pumpkin headed guy.

I've completely ignored the pumpkin head guy because he looks awful and I have no idea why I still have him around so most of this post will be dedicated to KissKissKiss. Once again, taking photos completely skipped my mind in the middle but I didn't miss much. Here's how it went:

Unfortunately, my cheapo digital camera doesn't record sound for some reason. HOWEVER, I will be purchasing a new camera soon and it will feature an in-built mic. Look forward to my sexy voice in the future.

^___^

These are all really great, chewey. One of the best brand new things to happen to Shrine in a while.

Thanks for sharing them with us.

These are great chewey. I have printed that link you gave me. I may attempt one soon.

haha

Chewey these are so completely charming <3

I've been saving this update until I'd had my fix of making these guys. (http://www.bentheillustrator.com/speakerdog.html)
So here we are: No. 11 - Garfield (and Odie), No. 12 - Charlie Brown (and Snoopy) and No. 13 - "Brown Or Blond, Choose Me" ... I just call him the Dubonwear Bear.

Images! Note that I only took pictures of the several stages while creating Charlie Brown since all the speakerdogs are the same template, really.

No artsy pictures this time guys :( Next time though!

EDIT: I'm running out of room on my desk.

EDIT EDIT: Could an admin remove the": Rommy" from the title please~

those are super cute. i love the garfield one.

:)

These really are excellent and I do not know if you are looking for any others but I was on the Terratag website and they have what looks like a very good Tetsujin 28 model that you may interested in

It's late and I don't feel like uploading a bunch of pictures so this is just a teaser until I edit in the rest in the morning.

WOW, these are all so cool! ^__^ Good job.

Reminds me of the origami ceiling cat I've made once. x)

I would've put these two up earlier but I was way too tired. Anyway, in this post will be numbers 14 and 15: Mean Green (Squirrel) and Team Rocket's Meowth Balloon respectively. These two both took me a lot longer than the rest of my models and they were also somewhat more difficult, especially Balloon Meowth. You will notice a few mistakes on both, I'm sure.

Here they are:

Number 16! This is probably my favourite so far. His template was similar in style to Balloon Meowth but a whole lot easier. I am pretty happy with the results!

Chewey, at first I thought they couldn't get any better!

:D

Aw man, that link one is just so damn cute. <3

Fantastic as always, mate. :)

awesome. you are running out of space. where are you gonna put all of them?

chewey the link one is fantastic, best yet 4 rl!

chewey this is awesome!

Chewey this is awesome!

They all look super-cute.
Like a big, happy, paper family.

hola no se bien como funciona esto, pero me gustaria poder imprimir algun dise�o, tal vez puedas ayudarme. mil gracias

WoooW! Great! They�re all great. But Link is the best.

Yeah I agree Link is awesome. Sounds like a desktop version of Super Smash Bros xD

More, imo

I didn't know there was a papercraft thread on here.

I folded the box flaps on my snake in half, I think that's what you're meant to do but after seeing yours I I'm not sure.


I think the white cat is Long Cat and the toothy grey one is the cat that always bites Sakaki in Azumanga Daioh.

Can you please tell me where I may get the template for LINK? It's fantastic, they all are, but I want my very own Link.

You'll have a choice of original, Minsh Cap, Zora Armor masked/unmasked, Magic Armor, Shadow Link, 8 bit, 4 Swords, & Fierce Deity.
This is probably the best Link that's not a stylized cube but still simple enough for beginners, if you want a more complex Link there are plenty of them on that site so take a look around.

White cat is part of Necoconeco and gray is kamineko from Azumanga Daioh.

What type of paper does people use? I use plain card stock and sometimes with the modes with lots of curves and gentle folds regular printer paper.
The glue I use right now is Elmer's all purpose glue that I squeeze a little on a scrap piece of paper and then spread it on the surface with a nail. I use tweezers to put together small parts.

BIG thanks. :)

edit: They have lots of the masks from Majora's too. That's my week planned next week.

edit II: I didn't want to wait. So I decided to make the easiest one to see how it would go, so I made the yellow diamond shaped thing that you shoot with an arrow, from Zelda. Printed it on 190 gsm matt photo paper, and stuck it together with double sided tape (so no waiting for glue to hold) and it turned out okay. The template was very well designed. The square bits were simple but the curves were hellish. I uttered lots of NSFW exclamations during the curved bits.

Thanks everyone here for bringing this to my attention, and Chewey for starting the thread.

Wow, I had absolutely no idea this thread was revived. Coincidentally, I've just started doing papercraft again. It's very likely I'll just create a horde of ROMMYS (http://rommy.kamimodel.com/index_e.html) though, since they're awesome. In case I hadn't already said it in this thread, I lost all my papercraft stuff a long time ago and gave up on the hobby because of it. Let's see how far I get this time.

Screenshots will be up later.

Those papercrafts are awesome! I'm anxious to see more :D

Just finished my second ROMMY. Took a nap between the cutting and folding parts of the building process.

BIG thanks. :)

My first papercraft were these japanese houses from the 50s and I just used plain paper and folded them by hand. Turned out ok even if they were really only boxes, then the next ones I did was cubeecrafts and those are pretty much strait lines so it's good to start off simple.

Lost all your papercraft stuff? You mean the things you made or your knife, ruler, cutting mat?

Lost everything I made. Well, it didn't happen all at once. Slowly, though, they were all destroyed. It sucked. I was especially grumpy about losing the Meowth Balloon :(

Also, if you're just starting out Dr Faustus, the ROMMYs are pretty easy to make and look pretty cool.

I actually used to do papercraft when I was younger, of course nothing good, just ones I would draw up myself and cut out to put together. Sometimes I think about trying my hand at it again, but I'm not so sure I could do it anymore :( I think it would be fun to create my own models to build, but I've seen some like these from Zelda that I'd love to try my hand at: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.thetanooki.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/070219papercraft5.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.thetanooki.com/2007/02/19/ninjatoes-zelda-papercraft-creations/&usg=__rjshfDuYndljppDQ2L17THm8BwE=&h=480&w=480&sz=80&hl=en&start=4&tbnid=n2LehIwr-VM1nM:&tbnh=129&tbnw=129&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dzelda%2Bpapercraft%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3De n, but I had this whole site chock-full of them and now I've misplaced the bookmark :( At any rate, great work :D

Check out these for general stuff, they update more so than other sites.

The Wolf Link in your..erm..link XD was designed by Ninjatoes. You can download it from his site along with tons more awesome models from Zelda as well as stuff from Final Fantasy, Tomb Raider, Advance Wars, and some other more random things like Buffy and Indiana Jones.

*EDIT*
forgot the link to his site.
http://ninjatoes.blogspot.com/search/label/Download

Dang, Link's links are everywhere Mark marks :D (reference to a stupid commercial from years ago). Thanks a ton, bro! I'd love to get into papercraft! I always thought as a kid that it was something I invented and was the only one who did, but lately I've been coming to the realization that many people share my interest in it! Very nice :D

I've seen pictures of vintage papercraft sets from Victorian times so it's pretty old.

The thing I like about it the most is the fact that when I'm making one even if it doesn't come out as good as it could have I'm alright with that. And that's unusual.

Dude! I just noticed but did you get that Navi off of nintendopapercraft Tom's Toonami Tunes? If so that's awesome! It makes me happy to see people building some of my recolors. :D

Yes I did.

I printed and cut out the Zelda Bunny hood, and can't for the life of me figure out how it goes together. It had no instructions. :(


One of this sites that Tom's Toonami Tunes linked to has a Life Size Link (http://www.papercraftmuseum.com/life-sized-link/)

Cool.

Bite my folded cardboard ass!

I've gotten slightly better though I'm gonna need a new knife set as well as a self healing cutting mat. Also I got some quick drying tacky glue and that's much better than just elmer's.

I got a self healing cutting mat. I'd recommend it. I found it made cutting curves a lot easier. :)

I want to make this one model which is on a PDF file. Now the file is just a little too big to print it original sized, it cuts off about 1/4 of an inch which wouldn't be any problem if I could change the size of the margins on the printed paper but the only size options are original, size to fit, shrink to fit, multiple pages on 1 page and booklet.


I've been scouring how to's and can't find the right info on this simple problem of making the print image cover more of the page.

If anyone is interested I found a page with a lot of display stands (http://www.jleslie48.com/base01/). They are all the same shape but come in various colours.

They look like this: In small and large sizes.
