Time for another assembled papercraft of one of the best anime in the last few years “Enen no Shouboutai”. This time it's the lucky sukebe sexy naked-girl-mascot character Tamaki in chibi form :D
As with all my crafts, I always start at the head. Built the face first (with the neck) and then make your way to the back of the head with the hair and close it. Since the 2 side ponytails are hollow, it's best to close the head on either part of the ponytail, like I did (or alternatively you can also close it on either piece of the back head if it’s easier for you). All there is left are the 2 2D 2-sided ears you glue on the right sports and the head is done.
Moving on, I made the 2 arms separately first. After you have only the arms done, glue the “stumps” inside the arms at the right angle. And after those are glued, you can glue on the simple 2D 2-sided hands on and bent/curl the fingers as you want in any pose and that part is also done.
When the arms are done, built the first half of the jacket with the collar. When you got that, glue the arms on the jacket and then slide the neck part (of the built head) inside the hole and glue it up from the inside. Let that part dry good, and when it does, use curled-up waste paper to bulk up that tiny neck of his to prevent it from snapping (it’s a chibi papercraft, so the necks are always the most difficult part, since they are so small and the head disproportionately big).
After that built the remaining jacket part and then move on to the legs. The legs can be assembled separately from the main body to a degree. I did decide to assemble the body parts to the belly, and then make the rest of the body part and then glue it together, since she has the separate 2D blet part on the hips and the glued part is invisible once you put it on. Then built the feet from the bottom upwards, each of them separately, and at the end, glue both shoes with the closed trouser parts and close each foot like that. Nicely, neatly (since the glued seems are invisible that way) and super easy. All done.
She is pretty sturdy for a chibi papercraft, if you assemble her right. The neck is “hidden” inside the collar, making the most vulnerable part (the neck) pretty stiff, even without extra reinforcing it.
I hope you like this cutie and you’ll get some ideas to assemble a papercraft or two on your own. The template info can be found here:

As always, just sent a private note and let me know if you would like to buy it.
In any case, happy crafting~ and "Latom!"
