And now it’s time to assemble her and give you some pro-tips on how to make life simpler for yourself when doing these. Let’s go.
**********************************************************
ASSEMBLY TIPS:
With any of my papercrafts, you can divide the assembly into separate parts: the head with the hair, the 2 arms, the torso with the arms, the various add-on ribbons and the 2 3D maracas, and the legs with the shoes.
If we start with the head, you assemble the face and neck first. Then you glue on the front hair, and lastly close it with the back hair. After this, you can glue on the hair tail on the top head.
Next you can separately build the 2 arms, with either the 2D or 3D hands (note that I did the preview pics with the 2D version of the hands). When you got those, set them aside and start gluing together the torso at the neck, and when you come to the shoulders, glue those on. When you have the torso glued together to the bellybutton, set this part aside.
Next step is to make the legs. You do this part by assembling the legs from bottom to top and finish with the buttocks part. This means, build the shoes first, set aside, and start gluing the leg from the soles and feet upwards, till you make both legs separatrely. And after this, glue the legs on the remaining butt parts and then glue the feet inside the shoes.
And before anything, fill up the legs with some weights here, to make her really stand firmly (*Pro-tip 2: I always suggest smaller pebbles, since they are small enough to fit and heavy enough to help with the weight as well, without rupturing the paper itself).
Next, glue these parts now together. Glue the legs’ part inside the bellybutton torso part, making sure to glue them at the right angle, so the figure can stand comfortably.
Now you have the remaining 2D and 3D parts to glue on, which you all make separately and glue on at the right place and the right angle. Make sure to leave the 2 2D 2-sided braids till the very end, so they are not in the way and you can manipulate them into standing at a right angle. Additionally, you can *pro-tip 2: glue wire on one side of the braid before closing it with the other side, so the wire is sticking out the braid at the top and you can glue that part inside the head to pose the braids into standing the way you want.
*Note: The papercraft preview is made with 2D hands. The files for printing-out have both the 2D and 3D hand versions, so you can choose which ones to make.
