Froakie Snowman built papercraft

Froakie Snowman built papercraft

It has been about 3 years when I made this papercraft group of Pokemon snowman papercraft XD But, since then I finally got time and decided to build the little fellas. So, here is my Froakie snowman papercraft.

Froakie 
The papercraft itself is about 19 cm tall, so it’s big enough to use your fingers and hands in the inner side of the craft to make it nice and smooth.

All in all, the built was nothing particularly special. You build the papercraft starting with the eyes, since it’s the easiest. The eye part can be a bit tricky, more time-consuming that with the Chespin snowman, so be sure to make those without rushing. You make both eyes first and the join them together with the middle strap parts. And after that you build the rest of the head.

After that was done, I moved downwards and made the rest of the round body (gluing 1 strap at a time), and at the end you close the bottom with the bottom part.

After you have the whole 3D body, you can put on the remaining 2-sided 2D items, such as the scarf and his eyes. The scarf is a normal strap that you glue on around the neck. The remaining 2 parts of the scarf are 2-sided, so you glue the sides together first and then you glue them on the right spots. And at the end you cut out the black stripes for the eyes and glue them in the position you want, deepening on what expression you want the snowman to have (tilted to the middle they make a more angry-looking Froakie; tilted to the sites, like I did, make a more relaxed and leisurely expression). And the papercraft is finished :)

Overall, it probably took me about 5 hours to make, including cutting out, but I am a very fast builder, so take your time with the assembly. It’s not really hard to do, maybe the 3D eyes since they take more time, so it’s a nice and relaxing assembly all in all :D

*Note that I did slightly fix the texture to be more “snowy”, using more white color for the colors of the snowman, so it doesn’t look as blue as it does on the screenshots. So, it looks more natural and better than the old version ;)

Hope you like the little cutie and that you got some snow around where you live to try to make one in real as well XD who knows. Enjoy and happy crafting~
