To show you how the “Cells at Work” papercrafts can look like assembled, I have decided to make the Sekkekkyuu papercraft myself as well, so you can see her in all her cuteness, so I hope you’ll like her.
The craft has some fiddlier parts to make, so I first made these. What are they? Well the hands, of course. Smaller fingers on slender hands, that’s how it goes with humanoid papercrafts. So, I made the hands and then the arms to the armpits, and left those for later. Then I made the face part with the neck and then the hair part to the neck. After you have those 2, you simply glue them together at the hole part in the hair (that’s why the hole in the back head is for, to make this part super simple to make), and you glue the remaining part of her long hairs on and you have the head part finished.
After the head I made her 3D hat. This is also somewhat fiddly, since it has a red blood cell shape, so it has a bit of parts to put together. But if you put it together right, it should look like in the picture and you can later take in on or off, since it has practical “flaps” left and right, which grip the hat when you put it on so it holds it in place. Really cool patent I made and I’ll definitely use it on other hat papercrafts in the future if I can, since you don’t need to glue the cap on and you can still put it on without it falling off all the time.
Next, I made the upper body with the black T-shirt. I made the whole T-shirt with the sleeves and then glued the head on, making sure to glue the T-shirt together at the very end, after the neck was glued inside it.
Then you need to assemble the jacket, since it’s separate from the body, to make it look cooler and more natural. You built that, which is pretty straightforward, and then glue the already assembled arms inside the sleeves rather than on the T-shirt, since it’s super easier that way (you don’t need to glue these seam on seam, since you can just adjust the angle and length by putting them in with glue on top and then gluing them at the right angle, without making a huge fuss about if it’s super accurate or not, since it’s not visible anyway). And the same goes when putting on the hands, since they are gloves with a edge that you can also glue on the arm parts in the right angle, without making a fuss about the seams.
After you have the upper body, you make the hip part, and then you make the legs sepparately, again super easy. I made the boots first, then socks and the separate legs. At the end you glue the legs inside the socks, then both inside the boots and then the whole leg part of the craft inside the hips, again without a huge fuss on how accurate it has to be, since you can adjust the angle (in the boots and in the hips) as you put it together, thanks to the longer edge of the jeans she has.
All that is left is to make her simple 3D box for transporting O2. A simple boxy design with a open top, since you can put something inside or leave it open or close it, however you want. You can make more boxes and make a whole stack of them, reprinting the box page of the PDF file how many times you like. I made 2 just to make them looks fancier I guess XD Of course, as you can see in the picture, the boxes also don’t need to be glued in her hands, since with the right angle in her arms and jacket, as shown in the papercraft template, they stand with no problem, and you can even stack more of them on top of each other, however you like.
And there you go, your own customizable Sekkekkyuu / Red Blood Cell papercraft figurine!

I hope you like how cute she is and that you make some of your own cute papercrafts in the future. Happy crafting~
