Chokipeta Bird Papercraft



Went outside the balcony for some fresh air when I noticed this bright blue bird just hanging around on one of the trees. I grabbed my camera and started taking pictures, it was kind enough to stay still for a while and do some poses before scooting out. Palm cockatoo papercraft model by Chokipeta - I believe this is one of his earlier works, dated 2002. Easy enough for beginners and for the kiddos. Have Fun!

Heavenly Military Officer Papercraft - Black



Here is a set of Chinese inspired/made papercrafts, featuring different heavenly deities and soldiers. They are made by Answer Ideas Studio, their paper models are intricately designed and require no glue for assembly - they've put tabs on strategic locations to hold the papercraft together. There's over 30 models on their site that you might want to check out, but I'll be sharing showing only one today, and the rest, on the following weeks to come. Wasn't sure if the designer intended for the models head to shake a bit or I did a poor assembly, either way I've got me a bobble head papercraft. Special thanks goes out to The Rube for finding this treasure trove.

Ponygon Papercraft

Cartoon Network/Toonami import Zatch Bell! is a very popular manga series from Japan where it is known as Konjiki no Gash Bell! which is publish Shogakukan's Shonen Sunday and turned into an anime TV series by Toei Animation. The plot goes like this, every millenium (that's 1,000 years for those who care) one hundred demons known as "mamodo" go to Earth to battle to be the king of the mamodo world. Each mamodo acquires a human partner in order to use their spell books for battling other mamodos, these spell books have spells th onat only the human partner can read. When their spell book is burned, they have to return to the mamodo world, and the last mamodo standing with their spell book intact and unburnt is the new king of the mamodos. Kiyomaro Takamine is the main character and his mamodo is Gash/Zatch Bell. Our papercraft model for today is Ponygon (Umagon in JP) it's a very friendly mamodo that looks like a miniature horse and uses armor based spells. It's real name is "Schneider", but since nobody can understand it's language, Kiyo named him Ponygon. That's about the only thing I could remember about him so feel free to correct me on this one.

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

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.
