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.
