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 tails, the 2 arms, the upper torso with the sleeves, the dress, and the bottom with the legs.
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 start making the 2 3D tails next, but build them separately and set them aside for now.
Next, you can separately build the 2 arms with the 2D hands. When you got those, set them aside and start gluing together the 2 sleeves first separately, then the upper torso. When you have the upper torso, glue the sleeves inside those and make the rest of the torso. Only when you have this done and the torso glued together with the head, only then press the pre-made arms with the hands inside to glue them on the right angle inside the sleeves. And the torso is done.
Next step, make the dress 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 belt section of the torso again.
All that is left is to do is to glue the 3D tails inside the head and add the 2D add-on parts and it’s done.
Extra tip: Since she hangs on a chain, when making the neck and gluing on the skirt and legs, be sure to add some extra tape inside the craft, so it doesn’t fall apart on any joined section, since she will be hanging from 1 leg only all the time.
*Note: The papercraft preview is made with an actual chain. The template does has a cut-out chain included, but it is better to use an actual chain or rope so it holds better.
