Shampoo (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Shampoo (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Last one of the bunch people, and really the reason I started this project at all XD As said with Akane, I was inspired of making a Shampoo papercraft for myself, since I saw one on Taobao and I can't get these. So I though to myself, it can't be that hard to do and it looks super cute, I got to have this one. So I made a model, kind of the same pose as this one, and made the textures and I really wasn't happy with it. So it kind of stagnated in my files to be released yet for 1 year, and a few months ago I decided to do a makeover of her, and I am super proud how much more cute she is now than the original. Since in 1 year my texturing skills became quite good, I so this one is kind of my favourite of the bunch, since she was the first of them. But the character in the anime when I watched it, damnnn, I hated her XD got to say this. But she looks really adorable, so what can you do XD

As with Ryoga and Ranma, I also had to do both versions of Shampoo as well, the female and the cat version. Both are incuded in the papercraft, so you can do both. The papercraft is unfolded at 26cm, so Shampoo is 25cm, the same height as Akane in the papercraft project, and smaller than Royga and Ranma. The whole craft consists of 10 pages to print, both the female and the cat Shampoo papercrafts are made out of a 3D model, with some additional 2D misc to make them stand out. Now since Shampoo is Chinese and works for a Chinese restaurant, I had to make the cutesy ramen bowls along with it XD you can leave those out, if you want, but they are really the whole point of the pose, so I like them. Definetly would also suggest to fill the legs of the female Shampoo, so she can stand with no problems. The cat Shampoo stands like a pro, so no problem there ;)

I do hope you liked the small excursion in my childhood anime and like the papercrafts I made :) and that you will look up the anime, if you don't know it yet! For any info or anything, you can write me a note, and I also am happy of any constructive feedback or any feedback really on how you like them etc :)

Happy crafting~

Ranma (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Ranma (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Next in line for the Ranma½ papercraft project is the main character from what we get the name of the anime obviously, so here is Ranma! Originally a boy, his water-based curse is when splashed with cold water he turns into a female. Causing a lot of miscief with this really XD but it's fun!

 

So because of his transformation, I had to do both Ranmas, the original male and the female :) The craft again has both the male and female included, and is 28 cm tall (male), so the female is about 25cm (again to make it fit with the other Ranma papercrafts I made in a group). It has 12 pages to print, 6 for the male, 6 for the female. I made both in the same pose, so you can see the difference in height and all, since he has the same clothes when he transforms, they become bigger on him/her etc. :) He/she have again some 2D 2-sided misc to make them look better and more original. A basic human papercraft in terms of building difficulty.

Think that Ranma is the most politically correct character in todays struggle to identify as a gender really XD he is both in one, one day male, next 5min female XD and the anime is more than 20 years old XD but as you can see, still very fresh :D

Ryoga (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Ryoga (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Next in line for my Ranma½ papercraft project is Ryoga Hibiki :D decided to put him next because he is immortally in love with Akane, and he is the cutest transformed animal of the bunch, since when splashed with cold water he turns into a small, little, to-die-for-adorable, black pig, which Akane named "Pi-chan" XD 

So for the papercraft I decided to do both versions of him, the human and the animal/pig form :) The male 3D model, which is 28 cm tall (since he his a big bigger than Akane, and all of the Ranma½ papercrafts are meant to be able to stand together built in a coherent group) also has some accessories to again pinpoint his personality. Since he is homeless and travells around all the time, I had to do him with a simple 3D backpack and him red 3D umbrella (looks hard to do, but it's just a circle that you fold together and glue on the umbrella stick; so super simple to make, and looks very original). He also has some 2D 2-sided accessories, such as his headband, ropes on his legs, etc. 

The animal part, as is called "Pi-chan" or some write it "P-chan" by Akane, is also a simple 3D model with a 2D 2-sided scarf. Simple, but super adorable XD I love the black piggy!!! XD Both of them together have 10 pages to print, and of course are sold together as a pair. You can make both of them, or just the one you like really, with the accessories for Ryoga or not, it's completely up to you.

Akane (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Akane (Ranma 1/2) papercraft

Decided to show you a new papercraft project I was wanting to release for a long time. Actually made 1 model out of it about 1 year ago and textured it and all, but I sort of never really liked it and didn't want to release it. So, this year I was looking around my unfinished work and saw the old model, and decided to do the whole bunch of the main character of the anime and I think they look so cute. Really worth it for waiting 1 year to release it, because now my texturing skills are on a point which I am glad to be able to show them to you all :D So today and this week, I am proud to present you the new papercraft project of the really old anime "Ranma ½"! Love the classic anime, love the characters, loved the manga, so better look it up of you don't know it yet :) it's an older version, the last movie came out in 2008, but so worth the watch :D it's something else, and who doesn't like slapstick anime anyway XD

The first character that was introduced in the 1. episode of the show is “Akane Tendou”, so I am first releasing her :) She is the main protagonist female of the series (kind-of XD since the male protagonist is also female XD haha). When I was watching the anime when I was a kid, she was always my favorite, since all of the other ones were so stupid and running around like chickens, and I really felt for her being confused and angry all the time. Especially Ranma not giving her the love back she was showing from time to time. Ahhhh, boys XD

The Akane papercraft is 25 cm tall and has 8 pages to print. I did each of mains representing their unique character so you get to know them up personal, and I though that she definitely needs the water kettle to turn Ranma back into a man again with hot water XD (if you don’t know what I mean, do look up the anime, it’s super fun). So always running around the kettle and splashing water on all of the bunch, that kinda sounds like Akane really XD So I made her with her 3D body and a 3D kettle craft for her hands. You can also make her without it, as you wish. She also has some parts in 2-sided textures, to make the craft shine, such as the skirt, hair, with 2D ears to make it easier, etc.

Think I did pretty much model her to perfection, in looks and personality (at least from what I remember as a kid when I was watching it everyday after school XD ahh the memories). What do you think of her? And what do you think of the anime Ranma ½? Do you know it? Be sure to write in the comments bellow ;)

More of the characters to be released this week. 3 more coming, I hope you’ll like them :)

Happy crafting~
