Hululu Penguin (Kemono Friends) built papercraft


Since I made the template, I also had to build her. Not only for the page, but also because I find her super adorable and I wanted to have her for my collection above my papercraft bench XD

The papercraft is actually simple enough to make, probably took me about 5-6 hours to make (including cutting out the parts and folding), plus/minus.

The craft can be divided into 4 separate stages to assembled her, so it should be fairly simple.

First you make the head, starting with the face and neck part. After you got those glued, make the front bangs and glue them on the face. After this glue the remaining parts of the hair back, and be sure to glue the neck part on the hair first, to make it stand nicely (the instructions are clear in the PDF template). After that, you can make the separate 3D headphones and glue them on the head like that. First part head, done.

Next you can move on to the torso part, making the 2 arms first. The hands are actual penguin fins, so they are simple enough to make, and once you got both arms, you can connect them by making the middle part, the torso. Make the upper half of the torso with the collar, and after that is done, glue both hands on. When the glue has dried, take the already built head and glue it in the hole of the collar and attach it from the inside of the torso. After this dries good as well, put in some curled-up paper inside the neck so it holds up nice and it doesn’t snap. When the head is attached, all you need to do it glue the remaining stripes of the dress on it. Second part, done.

Next, we can make the small tail part. It is actually detached from the body and is just glued on the pants (you can also leave it out). This way is simpler to make and you can leave it out as an optional piece, if you want. Third part, done.

All that is left to do are the legs. I built them from bottom to top, so at the end you get the separate feet with the hole at her waist to fill in weights to make it stand better. I always use small gravel, since it fits in every hole and has a nice weight to make it really stand. When you got the weights in, all you have to do is glue the legs on the inside waist part of the dress, adjust the angle so she stands, and there you go. Fourth part, done.

At the end you can glue the tail you did before on the pants, and glue the remaining 2D parts on (such as the zipper, etc.), and she is ready. And done ;)

A really cute character from the anime “Kemono friends”, which is hugely popular in Japan for some years now. I bet we get to see some additional anime series or an OVA or movie soon. That would be cool XD

I hope you like her and happy crafting~

Hululu Penguin (Kemono Friends) papercraft


Recently I got into MMD models and such, and I was searching for some cute Kemono friends and looking around, and it hit me like a bolt of lightning. Why the hell do I love this anime Kemono friends so much and didn't even make 1 papercraft of them? Probably the most obvious reason was that another artist already made some of the most popular ones and are freely available to download, and I don’t like to copy ideas. For another that I don’t have the time, since I am not only working full time, but then also working on 10 different crafts at a time and yadda, yadda, yadda, etc. ------BUT since it is/was lockdown time, I had some spare time and decided to make 1 truly special Kemono friend papercraft that wasn’t available anywhere and is my personal fav of them all. So here she is, the Humboldt penguin, and best idol of the Idol group PPP (PiPaPu) in the anime, the cutie Hululu :)

The papercraft is unfolded to 20 cm and consists of 4 simple pages. Nothing really dramatic to build, since I wanted it to be simple design, as much as possible, and it doesn’t have 5 fingers (yaaay, damn I hate assembling 5 fingers on hands so much, but what can you do if it’s a human papercraft…). She only has a flap like a penguin arm, so only 2 parts to make for the arms XD And the skirt allows you to build it in at least 2 separate parts, which again makes assembling papercraft so much easier and enjoyable.

The papercraft consists of the main 3D attached body of Hululu, her simple detached 3D headphones that are just glued on like that, and her separate 3D tail, that is also just simply built and glued on her bottom. Wanted to keep the pose simple as well, so she stands without problems, and still looks maximum cute as she is :)

I really should have done this 3-4 years ago… man, that tragedy of Grape-kun really hit me hard and made me cry (if you don’t know the story, just google up Grape-kun and you’ll know what I mean). That penguin was a true otaku at heart, so my condolences, he was our hero, my hero, since I know how it feels to have a Waifu (kind of). I hope you may be happy wherever you are Grape-kun, with your Waifu on the other side ;_;

And for anybody wanting to have this Waifu in papercraft form, of course she is also available for sale.

May we all find our real-life-Waifu’s and be truly happy in this world. Cheers Grape-kun and happy crafting~

*Btw. of course I also had to assemble her myself, so built preview follows soon... ;)
