Hoshino Ai (Oshi no Ko) papercraft


Since the anime is so hugely popular this season and various people asked me to make a papercraft out of her, here is my take on the main character of the anime series “Oshi no Ko” named, the one and only, “Hoshino Ai”. The anime is very special and the story is somewhat interesting, so might give this one a try yourself if you like a spin-on idol plot anime.

The papercraft is unfolded to 25 cm and has 5 pages to print out. It consist of a 3D model of Ai, as well as some add-ons and details, such as the 3 layered dress of hers (which would need to be pre-bent when assembled to make it look nice and frilly, so that takes a bit of time) the frilly neck again and the side tail on her head etc.

The papercraft itself is an average difficulty to make, since it has some smaller parts with the hands and the time-consuming frills on the whole dress, so I would say it’s a 7/10. On the plus side, the head has an invisible hole in the back hair, so the hair is super simple to make and you always have the included PDO file for the assembly when you purchase it as well, so it can all be seen there.

The papercraft has 2 legs to stand on, so it shouldn’t have any problems standing even without weights inside the feet, but you can always add them just in case. Since the pose is rather linear and stiff, it shouldn’t fall over when you make it, just be sure to adjust the angle when gluing on the legs lastly so it can stand and that’s about it.

***This is a premium papercraft that you need to purchase in order to receive the PDF and blank PDO files for assembly. – You can find all information about the PayPal purchase in the provided upper outgoing link.***
