Shiro (Hoozuki no Reitetsu) built papercraft

This is my cute little doggo from the anime "Hoozuki no Reitetsu" named Shiro that I wanted to show all of you built. Isn't he a good doggo?! So good; good boy :D

The papercraft is around 22 cm tall and has 9 pages to print. He has a main attached body and his yorishiro (the red-white rope) is 2-sided and 2D. As always with my builds, I started with the head, making the snout and the inner part first. After I had that I made the ears. I joined those ready parts with the remaining stripes for the head and glued the 2-sided 2D tounge at the end. **Pro tip: Make the 2 parts of the inner mouth first, so that way you can attach the teeth with their flaps on the flaps of the mouth insted, so the teeth flaps do not show anywhere on the model.**

After i got the head, I made his fluffy big tail and his front paws. Then I joined the front paws with the head and the middle stripes to make the front of the body. Moving backwards I glued the backside of the craft and attached the tail. At the end I finished the model with the 2 back paws and closed the whole model with the downside of the paws, which comes as 1 piece just for this purpose to make it easier (you can see the downside of the back paws in the pictures) and you are done with the doggo.

At the end come the decorational yorishiro, which I first glued the 2 backsides and cut them out to the seemes. And then you just glue them around the neck of Shiro at the back and here you go, your own Shiro doggo from the anime :)

Shiro (Hoozuki no Reitetsu) papercraft

Shiro (Hoozuki no Reitetsu) papercraft

As promised before I went to my week-long vacation, I said I will post some never-before-seen papercrafts I wanted to publish. So I am taking a break from the huge Akatsuki (Naruto) commission to present you the characters that I have made from one of the funniest anime out there (except Gintama), which is called "Hoozuki no Reitetsu" or translated as "Hozuki's Coolheadedness"!

This anime has a few seasons and specials, OVA's, so if you don't know the anime yet and love slapstick and general Japanese humor, well let me tell you that you will pee your pans laughing at every damn episode out there XD I don't think it is such a mainstream anime as Gintama, meaning being really popular in other non-Japanese speaking countries, but it is definelty unterrated people. It's really good :) 

And because I love it so much, I decided to make my favourite charcaters out of the anime. And how else could it be, I have to start with the derpy doggo called "Shiro" as in the color white. He is originally one of the 3 animals from the Japanese story "Momotaro" (based of the anime story of his background), but because Momotaro is such a stupid idiot, he decides to work as Hoozuki in Hell (which is btw. a buroucracy, how else can it be XD - see, super funny). He is mainly the airhead character that is super likable and as you can see super adorable as well. He is kinda stupid, but in a lovable way :D but he also plays the tsukkomi role in some scenes (look up Japanese comedy people XD).

As for the papercraft itself, it is pretty straighforward. It is a 22cm tall craft, consisting of 9 pages to print. The doggo has a main 3D attached body, as well as his typical Japanese red and white prayer bow around his neck. Also you can see I made his tounge and teeth in 2D, which are then just attached on the body to make it simple. The tounge is really looooong, because I just imagined him that way, super derpy and all. It can be cut into a shorter piece for anybody not liking the desing.

Hope I can make some more Hoozuki fans this way and people will look this beauty of an anime up :) worth your time people. And posting some more of them as well ;D we are not finished with them people! 

Happy crafting~
