Rozemyne (Honzuki no Gekokujou) papercraft

Rozemyne (Honzuki no Gekokujou) papercraft

As you maybe remember, I already posted a Myne papercraft in her poor rags and a version with 2 dresses already shown in the anime. Both versions of the papercraft didn’t make the cut with the new cleanup process I recently had, and I really hated how they looked, very undynamic, flat and the faces were god-awful.

THIS IS WHY I decided to make it my first redemption piece out of many papercrafts I am remaking. This is my new and improved Rozemyne (as she is now called now that she was adopted into a noble family) in her late-stage manga dress (not yet shown in the anime, you’ll have to read to manga to find out what this is all about XD). I think it is the best-looking dress out of all the designs I found, so I had to make this one.

Now let me tell you, when I say “Antyyy’s Papercrafts will be slowing down her pace with the new releases” I didn’t think it would be THAT slow, but damn. I have spent AT LEAST 3 days on the TEXTURES ALONE. Hand-drawing this kind of dress details really takes a lot of time, and I am learning to draw new details as I go along. But yeah, if this is the pace I have to have to make really nice papercrafts in the end that look gorgeous and that they make the anime character justice, it is what it is. But yeah, it took an ungodly amount of time with the texturing alone, as you can see in the intricate design of the dress and you’ll know why XD

*******************************

As for the papercraft itself, it is unfolded to 22 cm and has 6 pages to print. Each page is a double-sided back print, so all the relevant parts are colored on the inner side as well, so it looks the way it should.

The papercraft consists of a beautiful older Rozemyne 3D model I made, with a golden bible book in her hands (that has textured pages inside the book), her intricate 2D golden rose pins in her hair, 2D hair with 3 2D braids in the hair that attach into her hair bun at the back, a multi-layered dress with frills, double sleeves with optional 2D or 3D hands, 3 2D belts, and long slender legs with high heels.

Because of the pose alone and the top-heavy dress, the legs need to be reinforced and filled with weights when assembled, so she can stand. For the filling I *pro tip: suggest small pebbles I always use in my papercrafts, because they are small enough to fit inside the holes, heavy enough in mass to hold it down, yet gentle enough not to damage or deform the paper from the inside.

********************

I do hope you like her! I really think she now actually looks like Rozemyne and that I have finally done the anime actual justice with this design from the future story.

In life it’s not about what other people say, but about what you yourself think of your work and if you truly think you gave it your best and that you are happy with it. If not, try and try again, so you yourself can be proud of YOU. That is the most important thing, and this is why I made her as my first redemption re-make.

Happy crafting~

Antyyy's Papercrafts 3.0 CLEANUP

Antyyy's Papercrafts 3.0 CLEANUP

As already stated in the “under construction” post:

https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Antyyy-s-Papercrafts-UNDER-CONSTRUCTION-3-0-1345160237

I have been doing an extensive cleanup on all of my pages and deleting older posts that were not up to my standards anymore, as well as made some updates on my descriptions, links, etc. etc.

*********************

What you basically need to know from this is:

1.    All 100% available FREE papercrafts of mine are still on my Patreon page.

All of the older scrapped designs that I saved from the cleanup will be posted at a regular base on here (about 30 of them during the duration of this summer). All of the removed papercrafts that were FREE and the new ones that will be made FREE are on there and will continue to be there. My Patreon is for FREE downloads only and it will remain so. They are freely accessible without needing any subscriptions, login or anything else, just find the post, click the ZIP and download it.

2.    When I remove a papercraft design from my pages, I do it for a reason.

If I removed a papercraft design of mine from either my Ko-fi shop or from Patreon, I have removed them with intent and it is not an error. They are not available anymore and I will not sell or share them. Do not ask for old designs, because you will not get them. You will find countless old designs still remaining on either dead links or shared with a picture, because I have been in business for over +10 years. Old things get deleted and removed all the time, and some traces of them stay on the internet still (because everything on the internet is forever), but if they are not on Ko-fi or Patreon, I have deleted them. Poof and gone forever.

3.    About 20 of the older papercrafts I have removed, will be completely refurbished and made into new re-designed crafts. Some of the motives and characters are still popular, and I wanted to make them look fresher and better, so those will be released when I make them.

4.    Quality instead of Quantity: I will be drastically slowing down my business starting July.

I will probably share 1 new papercraft each week, and the other update I will post a few of the FREE papercrafts on my Patreon in batches. I want to not start focusing on quality over quantity and that needs time.

You know I have been in this papercraft-selling and designing business for over 10 years now without any stop, I have always been open for commissions and I have powered through countless projects in these years. But it has just become a lot to keep up and manage as a 1-woman-business, and 1 human being alone is capable of making only a limited progress each day with new papercraft designs + maintaining a full 8-hour work schedule + maintaining my pages and shop sales + commissions. So, to ensure I keep on powering on with my work and to make many newer papercrafts in the future years to come, it will slow down for a while. Antyyy needs a social life as well, so it is what it is.

*****************

I think these are the basic things I wanted to share with this update.

I wanted to share my thoughts with all of you not only so you know what will happen in the future and why things are as they are, but because I wanted to make a pledge to myself with the quality I need to uphold in the future and to really slow things down so I won’t fall into the same pattern of workload I was doing before.

Enjoy the new releases and I hope you look forward to many more years of new designs from me in the future. Happy crafting~

Coco (Tongari Boushi no Atelier) built papercraft

Coco (Tongari Boushi no Atelier) built papercraft

Already posted my Coco papercraft template:

https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Coco-Tongari-Boushi-no-Atelier-papercraft-1330383628

And now it’s time to give you some pro-tips on how to make life simpler when building her yourself. Let’s go.

**********************************************************

ASSEMBLY TIPS:

With any of my papercrafts, you can divide the assembly into separate parts: the head with the hair, the 2 arms, the upper torso with the white dress, the butt with the legs and the shoes, the pointy hat and the cape.

If we start with the head, you assemble the face and neck first. Then you glue on the front hair, and lastly close it with the back hair. After this, you can glue on the 2D ears and the optional head lid (which I didn't use in the preview pics btw.).

Next, you can separately build the 2 arms, with either the 2D or 3D hands (*Note that I did the preview pics with the 2D version of the hands). When you got those, set them aside and start gluing together the upper torso. When you have the upper torso, glue the sleeves inside the holes where the arms go and make the rest of the dress.

Set this aside again and make the butt with the legs and shoes. You do this part by assembling the legs from bottom to top and finish with the buttocks part. This means, build the shoes first, glue the leg from there upwards till you come to the butt. If you want her to stand nicely, *pro tip: best put some weights inside the legs before gluing it together (I always use small pebbles I throw inside the legs before I close the whole craft).

What you do now is glue together these parts with the flaps that are left on the belt part of the buttocks. Glue those inside the dress, making sure to glue them at the right angle, so the figure can stand comfortably.

Now that you have the base Coco papercraft, you can also make the hat and cape on it. If you want to glue the cape on, leave the head with the neck part for the end, and only assemble together the torso with the arms and dress, and then the legs. When you have the body, glue on the pre-made cape on her shoulders with glue inside the shoulders and press it down. Once the cape is glued on, press and rotate the neck inside the cape neck part with glue on the flaps, at the right angle and let it dry. The flaps won’t be visible from the inside of the cape and it’s easiest that way. At the end, you can add on the pointy hat and glue it on to finish it.

*Note: The papercraft preview is made with 2D hands. The files for printing-out have both the 2D and 3D hand versions, so you can choose which ones to make.

Antyyy's Papercrafts UNDER CONSTRUCTION 3.0

Antyyy's Papercrafts UNDER CONSTRUCTION 3.0

I believe it has been quite a few years since the last »purge« so to speak, so it's about time we do some cleanupin with my posts. As you know, or now know, I always try to do some cleaning up with my old papercraft files, but because of the sheer number of things I have released over the years, the sheer mass of stuff demands some beforehand planning for the actual execution. And what better time to do this then with the start of summer and summer holidays!

It is maybe the 4th, or even 5th “under construction” editing of posts I did over the years I have been in business, but I delete my old stuff all the time, so I can’t keep track of it anymore XD but who cares, I decided it’s going to be the 3.0 cleaning up and the 3.0 new start of quality-made papercraft designs I am still making for probably over 15 years now.

*******

So, what does that mean for you? It means I will be deleting quite a few of my old designs that do not fit my quality-made trademark anymore, since my papercraft skills and designs steadily improve and I do not want any half-assed and half-ugly papercrafts to represent the work that I do.

Most of my old designs will be removed and deleted completely from my shop and they will not be available online anywhere anymore. However, some of them that are still usable and fit my well-made criteria will be shared for FREE as freebies on my Patreon page (https://www.patreon.com/c/antyyyspapercrafts) , where I share FREE papercraft downloads only.

Anything and everything I don’t like will be removed, most deleted for good, some shared for free, and a few remade sometime in the distant future.

So, whatever older designs you wanted to make in my files, now is the time to buy them still, because I don’t guarantee for any of them to stay online for a long time anymore. And you can also look forward to many free releases during the summer (; Now, isn’t that great?

********************

I realize that with the sheer number of papercrafts I make and the current shitty economic state of the world, it is quite useless to have this many papercrafts in my shop that are unmanageable. I would like to focus more on quality-made papercraft designs as much as I can, and make everybody enjoy papercrafts with free releases I have been neglecting over the past few years. The freebies are long overdue, since I have been mostly focusing on commissions this past year and those alone take up most of my design time for my work.

I know that a lot of papercraft designers and artists have quit during these few last years, and the ones remaining are just a handful of good ones, most just trying to scramble-up AI slop to make a few bucks, so there are fewer and fewer actually good templates out there with even less people that are willing to make them. So, this cleanup is somewhat of a redemption ark, trying to do the right thing, making papercrafts available and downloadable for everybody to assemble.

There will always be bad apples in the community, but if I focus just on the shitty ones stealing designs, ideas and patterns and being lazy asses re-selling my work won’t get anybody anywhere. These are the main reasons I do not like to share my patterns for free, but I have come to see that sharing almost nothing for free is the wrong way in fighting this type of behavior. Leading with a good example and work ethic is the way to motivate far more people that actually respect this line of work and dedication to this artform. This is the way in expanding the community with good people that love crafts and want to put their own work and time into it. Making the community bigger and better and actually positive should be the goal of each papercraft builder out there. Only this will make papercrafting a hobby for the future, for many more generations to enjoy and for people to see the magic you can do with your own 2 hands.

*****

I hope I will have your support, the support of the papercraft community, in the coming years as well and you’ll make many more papercrafts you can share online with everybody.

Wish me luck, bear with me, and in the meantime: Happy crafting~

How to open PDO, Assembly help for my papercrafts

How to open PDO, Assembly help for my papercrafts

With all of my official papercraft files, free or paid, you get 2 types of files for assembly: PDF files that you print out in various types (colored and colorless flaps, as well as the lined and lineless versions) and a locked, blank PDO file.

The PDO file is THE main assembly instruction. It is a program with a 3D preview of the papercraft that lets you see how to put the parts together and how it looks assembled. This is THE assembly tutorial and it’s all that you need to build any of them.

*********************

The PDO file is a file opened with Pepakura (Tamasoft) and can be opened by either buying their Pepakura designer:

https://pepakura.tamasoft.co.jp/pepakura_designer/download/

Using a web viewer online (also recommended for Mac users):

https://papercraft-maker.com/

Using ArmorSmith viewer (recommended for Smartphone users):

https://www.armoredgarage.com/

or using my FREE stand-alone PDO-viewer to open the file (recommended, because it will show you the added assembly animation): 

https://mega.nz/file/PwMGlRTR#P26cUauteEdr4-yd5F2oT5mn6IQzdGjZfS-gsKI8s2w

*********************

The PDO Pepakura (Tamasoft) file has an “animation” function that lets you see how the cut parts are put together and folded, so it’s the nr.1 help-file for all of my assemblies. Learn to use it, and you’ll never want to make a papercraft without one (; This is also why no papercraft of mine has a "tutorial" in a traditional sense of picture screenshots or assembly videos. THAT IS WHY you have the PDO FILE INCLUDED. It literally shows you everything in depth and with precision.

*********************

Here is a tutorial explaining how to actually use the program and what it lets you do. It shows an older version, but the basic principles on how it shows what flap needs to be glued together and the edge ID numbers are the same. Just ignore the old links that don't work anymore in there and focus on the Pepakura Viewer display itself: 

youtube.com/watch?v=_lQLLEAIxwc&t=1323s&ab_channel=DanielKrsiak 

AND most importantly, you can also enable an "animation" sequence, that shows you the unfolded parts and how they are put together to make the finished papercraft model at the end. Very useful if you have a bit of trouble with 3D perception and also fun to play with:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wlpmjDRvf8&ab_channel=pepakuratamasoft

*********************

Note that all of my password locked PDO files are LOCKED FOR A REASON. MEANING THAT ALL OF MY PDO FILES ARE VIEW ONLY. YOU CANNOT ACCESS THE FULL FILES TO EDIT THEM WITH A PASSWORD; EVER!

I never share the original 3D model (just the template, because you are buying the unfolded printable template only), the textures are basic, and the UV-maps for texturing are scrambled and unusable for editing. Do not ask me for any password for any of them, because you won’t get it.

*********************

If you would like for any papercraft I made to be re-sized (made bigger or smaller), you can WRITE ME about that. I have no problem editing the height of any papercraft in reasonable margins, so you don’t need a password for any of them.

Enjoy and happy crafting~

Yuru (Yomi no Tsugai) papercraft

Yuru (Yomi no Tsugai) papercraft

I always say that there are too little sexy male papercrafts out there, so who am I here but to use my design skills and make some awesome guy papercraft for the world to see! The new long-distance little brother anime of the Fullmetal Alchemist franchise called “Yomi no Tsugai” is being streamed this season, and I love it so far! So, I decided to make a nice main character papercraft of “Yuru”.

*********************

The papercraft is unfolded to 26 cm height (about 22 cm height for just Yuru) and has 7 pages to print out (one of them being a double-sided print page for the hair). It has a 3D figure of Yuru, with a separate 3D bow, simple 3D arrows, a 2D scarf and a 3D stand.

Since he has short hair, the head and hair parts are bit tricker to assemble and take more time. He also has optional 2D or 3D hands.

Because of the bent leg, he has to be attached onto the 3D stand so he can stand in this pose. It is also best to reinforce the 2 legs and filling them out with weights to make it stand better (and optionally the stand as well).

*********************************

*********************

Hope you like the new anime. I can definitely see the Fullmetal influence in the character and story, so we’ll see how this one plays off. That said, FMA is a masterpiece in its own, so I don’t think comparing it to that franchise all the time will do Yomi no Tsugai any favors, so its best to enjoy it as its own thing and let the story grip you in its own way. Its 110% worth the watch, since I am enjoying it myself a lot. Definitely one of the best anime this season to look forward to.

Enjoy and happy crafting~

Kit Bodega (Gameoverse) papercraft

Kit Bodega (Gameoverse) papercraft

A really popular series called Gameoverse has released their trailer and people are going crazy for the main cat-like heroine called “Kit Bodega”. So, what a better new subject for a papercraft-ification than her XD

This is Kit Bodega, in a more grown-up stylized design, not as she is seen in the actual series.

*********************

The papercraft is unfolded to 22 cm height and has 3 pages to print out (one of them being a double-sided print page). It has a 3D model of Kit, with separate, simple 3D goggles and 2D whiskers.

The papercrafts has some smaller parts with the 3D tail and the hair. She has an optional lid to close the head in the back.

Because of the big yellow cyborg boots she has, she stands comfortably without needing and reinforcement. You can still fill the 2 legs with small weights just to be sure.

Pusheen (New Version) built papercraft

Pusheen (New Version) built papercraft

Already released the 2 new versions of Pusheen I made as a papercraft template:

https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Pusheen-New-Version-papercraft-1338228684

And now here is the assembled preview version as well! Let me give you some tips on how to assemble it as well!

***********************

ASSEMBLY TIPS:

With any of my papercrafts, start from top to bottom. Make the 2 ears separately first, make the 3D tail and glue together the front and back parts of the 4 whiskers and set those aside.

Now you make Pusheen by getting those 2 ears and build the top parts around it first and continue to glue the parts from the top to the middle part. At this point, you can add the 3D tail on and build the remaining bottom stripes on it till you have only the bottom part with no flaps left. You can then simply close the figure by gluing the bottom on it, add the 4 whiskers at the right parts, add the 2D feet and glue them on the bottom, and it’s done.

Since Pusheen is laying down, you don’t need to fill it out or anything.

*NOTE: I only did the laying down version of 2 versions that are included in the template. The purchase includes this laying down and the sitting papercraft versions.

Pusheen (New Version) papercraft

Pusheen (New Version) papercraft

Everybody knows Pusheen! What am I here to explain to you who this adorable little lady is (: (maybe you didn’t know that, but yeah, Pusheen is a girl). However, maybe I can explain a bit on why I am making a new version of her.

10 years ago, 2016, I made my first Pusheen version when I started papercraft designs (It is still online on my Patreon page to download for FREE, with all the other free stuff I got on there). But, needless to say, my designing skills have massively improved since I started all of this, and the old designs are really cringe and weird, and I removed almost all of them, except a few free ones that are still online. So, I wanted to make a new one, that is really simple to assemble, and really adorable, like the mascot we all know and love.

And here she is in all of her cute, fat, kitty glory! :3

***********************

The papercraft is unfolded to 13 cm and has 5 pages to print out. It has both versions included, a sitting and lying down Pusheen papercraft, since the mascot is known in both poses and I couldn’t decide which one to make XD

Both Pusheens are 3D models, so all of their body is a 3D unfold, including the tail and ears. And then you have 2D whiskers and paws to put on at the end.

Eevee house papercraft

Eevee house papercraft

As you maybe know, 2026 marks the 30th anniversary of Pokemon! And in honor of my fav genre of Pokemon games, I wanted to make a tribute to the objectively best Pokemon games out there ever (no other opinions allowed here!! XD): POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON!!

Everybody knows 2DS and 3DS are the best, most awesome and amazing Pokemon consoles out there and that there will ever be :9 and my fav games of those coming out for the 3DS were mystery dungeon games! Love them. Always will love them. And I wanted to make these projects for so long now, because I simply love these Pokemon-themed houses from the game and I think they are adorable to no end. And since it’s the 30th anniversary, I had to take the time and finally make these in the flesh.

I have made the basic starter-type houses for the most common Pokemon of the game and the ones I loved to play as. So, I hope you enjoy them!

**************

The papercraft is unfolded to 14 cm heigh with 14 pages to print out.

It consists of a mystery dungeon diorama of the Eevee normal starter house, including the in-game references of the house interior as exterior + a simple Eevee model with its scarf. It has all the basic add-ons in the house as around the garden, including the Eevee mailbox and its flag.

I have referenced all of the room and garden decoration from the last gen game “Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX”, so I redrawn all of the walls and textures from my saved games from my 3DS as well as upgraded some of the looks of the outside to make it look more new-gen-ish and high quality.
