And now it’s time to give you some pro-tips on how to make life simpler when building the smaller pig version of him. Let’s go.

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

ASSEMBLY TIPS:

The really simple, small papercraft of Pii-chan is best built from top to bottom.

You start by making the 2 ears, inner and outer side, and gluing both sides together. The you join them together with the top head part and build the whole head around it.

The snout you best build separately, and only when the whole head is done, you can press it inside the hole with glue to make it fit better.

Next, you build the 4 legs and the 2D tail separately. Start gluing the neck part on the head, then add the front 2 feet, build the belly, then glue the other 2 back legs inside the body, and lastly close it with the back butt part, the only part with no flaps, to close it.

Glue on the tail and the scarf, and Pii-chan is done (:

*Note: The papercraft preview is Pii-chan only. The file for Ryoga includes both human and pig versions, but the preview is only the cute little back pig (;

Mega Dragonite (Pokemon) papercraft

Mega Dragonite (Pokemon) papercraft

As some of you maybe saw, we had a “Pokemon Presents” yesterday, and people were mostly excited about the new Mega Pokemon reveal they did! And I really love the design, because I LOVE anything to do with wings, flying, birds, feathers, you name it. So how could I NOT make this new Mega evolution form into a papercraft XD O present you: Mega Dragonite (as my papercraft version of it)! – made from 0 in less than 24 hours after the official release of the design XD

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

The papercraft is unfolded to 24 cm and has 6 pages to print. It consists of a 3D modeled Mega Dragonite, with simple 3D base wings on his head, and additional flat, 2D 2-sided wings on the head and its back. It also has a simple stand for the body, the tip of the tail touches the ground, so it is placed on the stand and looks like it flies. I would actually suggest to put it on strings/wires and hang it from a ceiling to make it look original, you probably need 2 strings, 1 for the head and 1 for the tail to hold it in place.

*Note that I did the 3D model based off the screenshots and official artwork of the release, so the model, especially the wings since I can’t see them from all angles, are going to be different in the released game. So, the design varies from the actual official Pokemon design.

And now it’s time to give you some pro-tips on how assemble her the easiest way. Let’s go.

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

ASSEMBLY TIPS:

 With any of my papercrafts, you can divide the assembly into separate parts: the head with the front bangs, the 2 hair buns, the 2 arms, the upper torso, the jacket, the shorts, the styler, and the bottom with the legs and 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. You can the make the 2 3D tail buns separately, and slide them with glue attached on the flaps inside the 2 holes to fit them on the head. If you build them nice and tight, they fit in perfectly and leave no gap or air.

Next, you can separately build the 2 arms with the hands, 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 upper torso. When you have the upper torso, set that also aside and make the jacket. When you have these parts, firstly glue the torso into the neck first, and then glue the jacket on the torso. Only when you have this done and the torso is glued together with the jacket, only then press the pre-made arms with the hands inside the jacket sleeves at the right angle. And the torso is done.

Next step, make the shorts part separately and glue it inside the belt section of the torso.

Next, 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, glue the leg from there upwards till you come to the butt and glue these inside the 2 holes of the shorts at the right angle, so it can stand. *Pro-tip: If you want her to stand nicely, best put some weights inside the shoes before closing it together. 

All that is left is to do is to glue the 3D parts of the styler together, glue it on her hand, and it's finished.

*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.
