SD Zeta Gundam Papercraft

Oh yeah! Another good-looking Gundam papercraft. This model has 8 pages of un-colored parts. Yup, that means you have to print these on colored card stock(gray, blue, dark blue, red and yellow). If you don't have the colored paper then you're gonna have to do the tedious job of manually painting the parts using MS paint. If I'm not mistaken, this model will be available only until May 6.

Aliens Papercraft Version Two


As promised, the new version of Aliens papercraft is up and running. He didn't add anything new to the Aliens section. I hope he''ll find more time to update the Hadley's Hope colony. On the bonus section, you will find a couple of ships from the PSP game "Wipeout Pure." A new theme dedicated to the movie Terminator is also up. Right now a 1:1 scale terminator chip is available. A 1:1 scale endoskeleton is definitely something to look forward to. There's also a car from the PS game Ridge Racer. The prototype Attacker Akane plane from the arcade game "1944" is also back after disappearing from his old site.

Phoenix Wright Papercraft



Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is one of the more unique and colorful games on the DS that has a lengthy adventure with wonderful characters, very interesting storylines, fantastic music, and makes great use of the DS touch screen and microphone. The main character is porcupine head Phoenix Wright - a defense lawyer with a keen sense for discerning fact from fiction, together with Maya Fey (assistant), Mia Fey (mentor), and Miles Edgeworth (arch rival) this makes for a wonderful courtroom drama. Here are the papercraft models for Phoenix, Maya, and Edgeworth - scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page to see them.

Cerberus Papercraft

Due to so many complaint about me not releasing the template I decided to release it. I'm warning you all its not for beginners. Its 15 pages with mostly big black parts so make sure your ink cartridge can handle it before starting.

Due to how complicated it was to assemble even for me I didn't do instructions, instead I included the pdo file itself. pdo is the format used in the papercraft program "pepakura" I included in the archive pepakura viewer to help you all assemble the model. its a free program but instead of making everyone search and download it I included it in the file. use the read me file to know how to use it to assemble my model.

I will never put my models for sales but donations are always apreciated and help me make better models. the template is available in the newest papercraft section of my website

note: dont email Ron about stuff I post. he don't have anything special more than others have if you need to contact me about my stuff my website is there for that. you can use the shoutcast or the guestbook

Cerberus By Chamoo232

Here is my latest and most impressive model so far. Cerberus from Kingdom Hearts/ Disney's Hercule. It took over 40 hours of work and due to its very high difficulty there will be no templates. The teeth are small and were very hard to make but the whole model still end up almost 15 inch long and 10 inch tall.

Shrek the Third Papercraft



You've probably seen some Shrek The Third ads on the tube, magazines, and on the net for the past few months and one campaign in particular is about DreamWorks Animations teaming up with Hewlett Packard - they've develop a new colour management system called DreamColor, that will ease the calibrating of printers, cameras, and televisions. Anyways, HP has now added some Shrek 3 papercraft models on their site, although not the one that you like best - it's more like a Hako-ish type of paper model that's geared towards first time builders. You've got Shrek, Princess Fiona, Puss in Boots, and the adorable Donkey. As you can see from the pics above, I've only assembled two models, Donkey, because he's my favorite from the movie and I simply like Puss. You can also find other papercrafts on the site such as a robot, dragonfly, and an ankylosaurus (requires some pipe cleaners to complete).

Shark Papercraft



Sharks have a very bad reputation for being "man-eaters" that have the thirst for human blood or savage killers with no regard to other aquatic life, but this simply is not the case, this is a huge misinformation that has been propagating for years and even more when the movie Jaws(1975) came out - we've got the great Steven Spielberg to thank for that. But the truth is, it's the other-way around, sharks are very much endangered and on the brink of extinction due to man's excessive demand for its meat. So go help in the fight to conserve this majestic creatures by educating yourself and others through Discovery or Bite-back, and while your at it here's a papercraft model of a great white from our friend Ryo Tokisato.

Architectural card models

This site offers nine beautiful architectural models. Kids might have a hard time building these models as some of the parts are very small. Despite that, the parts are very well detailed. The watermill model above has only 6 pages of parts which is good for those who want to save on ink.

Paper Mario Airplane



Here's a nice weekend project that you can share with the kiddos, Super Paper Mario came out this week for the Nintendo Wii, so I checked out their web site hoping that they'll release some sort of official papercraft model for it - coz' after all, it is "Paper" Mario, but there wasn't much on their site, maybe they forgot to put it up or maybe there isn't any. In any case I went to the next best thing, the other Paper Mario site, the one that was release for the Gamecube two and half years ago. I scoured the site and all I found was a Paper Mario Airplane, no papercraft models, I guess this will have to do for now. In order to download this one you would have to find your way to Keelhaul Key (4) and once your there, look on the right side of the page and you'll see a treasure chest, click on it to download the instructions. If your too lazy to go there, check out the download link below.

The Japanese Tradition - Origami


Funny skit that shows what origami can do, from simple to complicated works of art. In it, is the paper folding student trying to outdo his old master scene. The video is in Japanese with no subtitles and split into two versions. One is the abridged version (above), which only has the funny skit and the other is the complete version.

Soviet Space Models


Real space modellers are in for a treat. More than a dozen of highly-detailed Soviet space launcher, rocket and satellite papercrafts. These models vary in scales and complexity. I'm thinking of building the Energia model which has about 27 pages of parts. Enjoy!

Three Girl Rhumba - Papercraft video



Slow day today, I haven't finished the new model I'm going to post, so here's another papercraft inspired video from another not-so well known band. Last time it was punk, with some paper action, now we've got house music - the sort of music you'll here when your partying in Ibiza. It's got lots of papercraft models, some hako, a paper airplane, and a great set of dioramas. What more could you ask for? it's paper heaven...Not. So here it is, Three Girl Rhumba, from Klonhertz.

Mongo Dice Village Papercraft



To start of the week, here's a very easy and simple papercraft dice model that even beginners will breeze through it. It's a three piece dice set which comes with their own box container, although I wouldn't call it dice since there's no circular patches/pips on it - I'm guessing that the maker might have meant "cube". Those who haven't tried paper crafting or paper modeling, try this one out, this is a good model to start with that can easily boost your skills on your cutting/knifing skills.

Card Box

Create your very own papercraft card boxes. Materials that you'll need are black tissue paper, paper board and a decorative paper. For the last one, I think I'll just find a graphic template from the web and print it on a paperstock. I'll try to make an anime inspired box with my name on it. Just use your imagination and I'm sure you'll come up with a good looking box papercraft.

Blogger's Choice Awards

We'll it's that time of the year where awards are given to the good, the bad, and just plain old weird blogs. There is the sort of like a peoples' choice blogger awards being held at the Postiecon event in Orlando, Florida on June 2, 2007, in which the blogosphere can vote for their favorite and least favorite blog sites. If you're a competitive individual that likes to compare ranks and ratings with your friends or even othe peoples blogs, then this is just the thing for you. Just make sure that you have a ton of traffic on your site and also a very supportive base wouldn't hurt. One of our readers just emailed me and mentioned that she nominated yours truly for the "Best Educational Blog" category (made me laugh:) well, thanks, I guess, I don't know about "educational" because most of the things I talk about you probably knew it already. I've looked at the categories but I can't seem to put a finger on where I fall - well maybe Paperkraft is unique and there's no word to describe us. So go visit the site, check it out a bit, if you see a category that fits one of your favorite or your very own blog, go for it, you never know - you might just win. You can also cast votes for others that have already been nominated. This contest is sponsored by Payperpost.

Book Recommendation - Papercraft Zoo

You've probably seen most of the cute papercraft models featured here like this Corgi, or this giraffe, and even this other dog, they were all created by Kei Goto from the revered KeiCraft Papercaft Studio in Japan. We seldomly see this finely crafted and simplistic style of papercrafts here in the US, and rarely do they sell these on the popular online bookstores - unless you go look for it on some specialty store and wouldn't mind paying extra on oversees shipping. So when I found out that Kei's bestselling book, "Papercraft Zoo", has been made available again here in the US through Amazon.com, I've decided to personally recommend this and insist that beginners and collector's alike should not miss this one and buy a copy of it while it's available locally. The papercrafts on this book are easy to assemble and the price is very much affordable. Follow the link on the bottom of this post to go directly to it's Amazon page.

Jesus Christ - Easter Papercraft



Easter is one of the most important holiday for the Christian faith, it is a celebration of the resurrection of the their savior Jesus Christ from the dead after His death by crucifixion. It's observed in the months of March, April, or May each year which approximately coincides with the first full moon after the vernal equinox. Here is a Jesus Christ papercraft model from Yozo Kutsushima of the Happy Origami Ministry in Tokyo, Japan. This paper model is also a paper automata in which its head can move around. We've also got some other cute Easter related papercrafts like this Easter Bunny and Easter Egg that you might want to check out.
