Chibi Chocobo pair (World of Final Fantasy) papercraft
As some of you may or may not remember, I had a »Christmas giveaway contest« in December, where the prize was an exclusive »Black chibi Chocobo pair« that the winner got (you can view it here):

I think the black Chocobo is the cutest out of all the Final Fantasy monsters, so I decided to make those, since I think they are the ultimate cuteness XD
Since then, MANY, and I mean many, people have been asking about the template. Since the black ones where the prize for the winner only, I decided to make the normal Chocobo texture as an available papercraft, so people who were asking about the template, can get the normal yellow Chocobo colors, if you want them.
The papercraft is unfolded to 20 cm and has 12 pages to print. It consists of 2 different 3D Chocobos, re-modeled and re-textured from the game “World of Final Fantasy”.
One is the normal chibi Chocobo, and the other chibi Chocobochick. Both have a 3D body, with 2D 2-sided wings and front floof, and the chick also has a 2D eggshell with a simple cylinder stand under the head, so it stands in its place. The normal big one is 20 cm and the small one probably about 14 cm (without the eggshell). The only parts that are fiddly should be the feet with the claws, that are somewhat smaller and maybe the head feathers on the bigger Chocobo, so I would say they are a 5/10 to build.
The papercraft template comes in normal (yellow) colors only, since the black Chocobo one was EXCLUSIVELY for the winner of the contest and it will stay that way.

And since a lot of haters have been talking behind my back (as always), here is the explanation for the illiterate once again (you can skip this whole thing if you are only interested in the template, it's just another rant thing going on to prove my point XD):
Yes, the papercraft model and the textures are actually literally 100% made by me, not ripped from the game – IF anybody wants proof, I can show the UV-map I made and you’ll see it’s a different one from the game and hand-drawn by me, just like everything else I make. Just because it looks 100% like the game, only means that I am freaking awesome and really good at my work with replicating 3D models from pictures and videos, and that’s about it.
I always make my own models, poses and textures, ALWAYS, so please, don’t insult my work and talent. Every papercraft is 100% made by me, 100% Antyyy, since that’s the work I make and take pride in (the only exception are commissions only, if the commissioners want the in-game ones – which I also point out as being from the original model, or any other commissions I make based off pre-existing models, which I then NEVER share openly anyway).
-- I know it’s a scare-tactic or whatever you would call it, because apparently, I am getting on the nerves of a lot of people for selling MY OWN WORK that I do, for money. And I am apparently the devil to these people because I need money to life of off, selling them at least -300% cheaper than I put actual work into them to model/texture and unfold them. Damn, I am so selfish for wanting money to pay rent and groceries with my own work I do and that I don’t want to live off of air and photosynthesis only, I know.
Anyway, these losers can make-up things and lie all they want, the only truth comes from me, you can ask me anytime about my work and I’ll gladly explain it again and again, anything you need to know. Just know that the haters have never ever stopped me working on my stuff for +10 years since I started this whole papercraft journey, so don’t even try. I go into the accusations and clear them up for others reading s***posts like that, but honey, I ain’t losing any sleep over idiots like that, believe me, there are too much awesome people out there actually supporting me and liking my work ;) + it really pi**es them off if you keep making stuff they can’t get XDDD
I hope you like them and find them as cute as me (although I still find the back version better XD), and happy crafting~
