Another one of my papercrafts I decided to build, this time it's the »Spirit of lost time« from the new remake game of Dragon Quest, Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age.
The papercraft is about 14cm tall, so I think it’s a really nice height to build it, not too small and not too big. I started this by first making the 2 long tentacle-like arms on both sides, since those are maybe a bit fiddly to make, but because it’s such a height you can put your finger in the middle of the pieces and you can glue it together very nicely like that.
After I got the arms, I started to make it from top to bottom, which is my usual pattern to assemble, because I also place the flaps of the template in such a way so it’s easy that way. When getting to the arm parts, I attached the arms on the head and shoulder part, and built it till the beginning of the legs.
The second fiddly part are the legs, since they are a bit thinner than then arms and you have to close it there as well. Since I leave the legs for last, I build them to the toes and glue every part, one by one, on the body, till only the bottom part of the foot remains, the sole. Those are just then glued on as the last step to close the papercraft without any work at all, and there you go, papercraft finished :)
I think it’s not such a difficult papercraft than most of my other designs, since it has no really small parts to glue together, and it’s easy to close at the end. It probably took me half a day to finish it, depending on how skilled and fast you are yourself, of course.
I really loved the remake of the Dragon Quest game and still do. These cute little being have captured my attention since the beginning of the game where the protagonist first sees them and has no idea what they are. I find their smooth design and glowy-like appearance very appealing and I had to make this cutie for myself at any rate XD
I hope you like the cutie, you can find the template and all the info on how to get it here:
Happy crafting~
