Arcade Papercraft - Moon Patrol Diorama

An old classic arcade game, this one is. It's a side scrolling shooter in which you control a lunar rover trying to cross over pitted and rocky terrain while avoiding attacks coming from alien space crafts over head and tanks up front. Designer Marianne Mazurowski over at the Conejo/Coneja blog has created this cool Moon Patrol papercraft diorama for us to gaze at. The patterns are not yet finalized so keep your eyes glued here for the update. For now, let's head over to the link below and reminisce on the good old days when joystick and a couple buttons was king.

Earth Day Papercraft - 2008

Today is Earth Day, a day that we call for action to protect our blue planet's fragile ecosystems from our excessive and unrestrained use of its natural resources. I've searched for some Earth Day papercraft or anything related to it but there's not much out there that has good quality to them. These three however, fit perfectly. We start of with Canon's Globe Puzzle papercraft, we've previously shown this one before but its a very good paper model and educational tool that we'll show it again.



Next we go to Italia to our friend Pino's place (Paperpino) for his Earth Relief Globe papercraft, and finally we visit Japan to see the eco-kun papercraft character, it's a mascot for the Kahma Company Ltd. that promotes eco-friendly products - Kahma is a DIY hardware and household goods store, similar to Home Depot or Lowes here in the US.

Video Game Papercraft - PC Gamer

Yesterday, I went to my local Barnes and Noble bookstore to check out a new section on the store that is carrying imported Japanese books, mostly manga, anime, and origami stuff. Sad to say I didn't find anything related to papercrafts. So I went to the magazine section to check out some video game mags and there it was, a (Fallout 3) Vault Boy papercraft staring at me. I quickly grabbed the mag and tried to see what other stuff was in it. The magazine is the PC GAMER HOW TO: The Ultimate Guide to DIY Gaming edition. I went straight to the particular article, they called it "Gaming Papercraft! Time To Test Your Finger Dexterity" - the first one is a simpler version of Portal's weighted companion cube, followed by the Fallout 3 Vault Boy, then a Bioshock Big Daddy papercraft, and finally a Half-Life 2 Gordon Freeman papercraft. The mag also indicates that all the paper models were done in Pepakura Designer. It's not the best of models, but it's good enough for beginners.

I know I'm going to receive a lot of request for a scan, but this one is a no go. The mag is only $10 cheap and its available everywhere, I think anybody interested can afford this one. Pardon the quality of the photos, my camera phone is old.

Miffy The White Bunny - Photos

I made a boo boo with Paperkraft's flickr photos when I was just starting out with this blog, I accidentally deleted all the photos I took of the papercrafts posted during 2006. I've decided to take new ones and started with one of the earliest post - the Miffy papercraft. Nothing really special with the shots, just your regular front, back, sides, top, and bottom views.

I'm also opening a separate public album for papercraft fans who want to share photos of their finished models. You can send them to papersamATgmailDOTCOM and please don't forget to include your name or alias so we could include that in.

Disney Papercraft - Skyway Bucket

One of Disneyland's original atrractions and has been copied by other theme parks around the world, the Skyway (gondola lift) is now immortalized in paper by The Disney Experience site. The Skyway used to be a popular ride but due to costly maintenance, very slow-loading, and a disabilities act violation, it was deemed unprofitable and eventually closed. If you've got fond memories riding the Skyway and you miss it a lot, then what better way to remember it by building this cool Skyway Bucket papercraft.
