Human Manaphy and Phione (Pokemon) papercraft


Saw some humanoid Pokemon illustrations online, so I got the inspiration to make human OC papercrafts out of Phione and Manaphy (so shout out to tamtamdi for the great idea), since they are so similar, and made them into twin girls.

*******************
The papercraft itself is unfolded to 16 cm and consists of 7 printable pages. It has 2 3D models of the Phione and Manaphy girls, as well as some add-on 2D items. Each of them also has simple 3D balls for hair decoration, so those are simply glued on at one edge.

Each twin has 2 legs to stand on and since they have hair in the back and hands raised it should be well-balanced and can stand, but you can still add in some weights into the leg part when you assemble it, just in case. The smaller parts would be with the 3D balls and Manaphys 3D hair tails, else it’s a straightforward humanoid papercraft as all of the ones I make. You always have the locked PDO file for assembly included, so no worries about that. It should be a pleasant build in any case.

**************************************

*** This is a premium papercraft that you need to purchase in order to receive the PDFs and blank, locked PDO file for assembly. – You can buy and download the template here:

Ararycan (Genshin) FREE papercraft



Summer started and I wanted to sweeten up the hot and sweaty days coming with some FREE papercrafts everybody can enjoy. And I thought, why not make some cute “Genshin Impact” crafts, because everybody loves that game. And I did some of the most popular Aranara and I will be releasing a few of them each week to come so you can directly download and assemble them from my Patreon :)


*******************************

This papercraft is from the Aranara called “Ararycan”. It is unfolded to 17 cm and has 5 pages to print.

NOTE: The flower does need to be additionally reinforced with some wire or similar, to make it stand firmly, because it’s just a 2D 2-sided part.
Also note that some parts might not be 100% accurately textured as they look in the game, because I did these with reference pictures only, since none of them are available as 3D models. So, if they don’t look completely the same as in the game, I am sorry and I hope you still find them fun to assemble and super cute, as I do :)

**************************************************************

*** This is a FREE papercraft that you can download for free on my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/antyyyspapercrafts.

If you assemble any of them, please share the finished papercraft pictures in a post, a shared link, a tag to my page, or send pictures to me, so I can post them on my page. I am always happy to see anybody assembling my art :)***

*No worries, the files are 100% accessible for FREE, without needing to an account, a subscription or anything (as are all of my FREE papercrafts I post). Just click the link, find the post of the version you want to build, click on the files, and there they are.

*******************************
Hope I get to see a lot of new papercrafts being made with these.

**************************************************************

And you can now also view it is a 3D preview on Sketchfab (it's shown the same way as the 3D preview in the PDO/Pepakura file:


Enjoy and happy crafting~

Goemon (Lupin III) papercraft commission



Another interesting papercraft commission I can share. This is “Goemon” from the really, really early and old Lupin movies, where he has a very distinct profile and design, since they completely change him in the later anime and movies as well. The commissioner wanted him in his cross-legged sitting pose, with the katana inside his hands, hands also crossed in the sleeves of the kimono. A somewhat difficult pose and especially the design of the hair, since the early 80s, 90s anime had “impossible” hair as I call it, because it cannot be 100% converted into a 3D model, because the different angles don’t line up in real at all XD but I somehow managed to make him look like in the screenshots (considering that even in the movie itself every drawn frame of Goemon is also completely different XD). Got to love retro anime.


******************************************

The result is a truly cool-looking sitting Goemon, with 3D and optional 2D hands. The arms and legs are made so they slide inside the kimono in the end, so it’s 1. easier to assemble and 2. the parts don’t overlap. The katana is also separate and 3D, and it has a 3D separate scabbard to put it inside.

The whole thing is unfolded to 45 cm, since the commissioner wanted it to be bigger. So it has a whooping 30 pages to print out with all the parts.

*********************

*** This is a paid commissioned papercraft. Commissioned crafts cannot be re-sold, with some exceptions. If you are interested in buying the template or have any other questions, please message me in private on DeviantArt or on my Facebook page.

***************************************************************

Showing this papercraft because I am really happy with the result. And I am also showing it because people can see what they can commission for themselves if they want a custom papercraft/3D model made as well.

*********************

Hope you like him and this classic anime as well XD And I hope I get to see assembly pictures and I get to share them on here for you to see. Really curious how it’s going to look.

Enjoy and happy crafting~
