Sinistea (Pokemon Sw/Sh) papercraft commission


Since it’s the time of the year where we are preparing for Spooktober and the best seasons of the year (well, at least for those who love Halloween as much as I do…), I am showing you one of my papercrafts of a very cute ghost Pokemon…

As you can see from the picture, of course it’s Sinistea! It’s a cute little teacup ghost Pokemon from the new Sword & Shield Pokemon game, and a commission I have made.

The papercraft itself is about 7 cm tall, since it is a commission for an already made Polteageist papercraft and the commissioner wanted both to fit together size-wise. Since it is that small, it is really simply designed and easy to make. It consists of 4 pages to print the template. The craft has a 3D body with a 3D clip on the left side and a chip hole on the right side, where the 2D 2-sided arm needs to be glued on. The spillage on the left chip side is 2D and is just attached on it like that and has an optional double-sided part. Also, the bottom of the cup is left open, since it’s easiest to make it that way. It comes with both colors as you can see, normal and shiny.

Hopefully the commissioner will be able to assemble the papercraft soon, since I have been promised pictures of it when it gets finished, so I can’t wait for those so I can show it to all of you as well :)

I hope you like, hope to update it with pictures soon and it and happy crafting~



 UPDATE:  

The most awesome commissioner (Val070) shared pictures with me and I think they did an awesome job :) They said that they are fairly new to papercrafts and that it was quite tricky for a beginner to make the edge of the teacup since it kept warping and all, but with a few tips of mine and a bit of patience, I think it came out really neatly done and I am very happy to have gotten these shared with me :) You can check out how the teacup looks with normal textures, build by the commissioner, here:

Atelier Ryza (Reisalin Stout) papercraft

Finally, after weeks of waiting for this to be uploaded so you can all see it in its most awesome glory, I am finally able to show you my most prized papercraft possession yet, “Reisalin "Ryza" Stout” from the awesome game series Atelier, more precisely “Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout” AND the continuation of the game, which will be released this December “Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy”!!!

(If you haven’t tried out the game yet, TRY IT NOW, it’s really something else and I love how special it is and how each of the characters is lovable in their own way! And the skins and the specials and the quests and the game mechanics etc. etc. etc.)

I have found out about papercraft about +10 years ago and started by assembling existing ones at first. After a while of getting used to building them, I decided to start designing and modeling them myself, and the rest is history. In my more than 5 years of professionally dealing and handling papercrafts, I have made some papercrafts that are most precious to me and on which I have spent days upon days of work to finalize them. My top 3 of them are:

    1.       https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Super-Sailor-Moon-built-papercraft-770504062

    2.       https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Hatsune-Miku-Snow-Princess-2019-papercraft-830987244

    3.       https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Cardcaptor-Sakura-Clear-card-papercraft-756221918

But this has now all changed, thanks to this work of art I made, Atelier Ryza. She is THE BEST papercraft I have made to date and countless hours of work have been spent on making it look the way it does. All worth it.

The TEXTURES ARE ALL 100% MINE, HAND PAINTED AND MADE TO FIT THE UV-MAPS I again made myself. 100% painted and made to resemble the exact Ryza character in the game. Probably 99% accurate. And a whooping 7 different UV-maps to make the 7 different textures, so I could fit in all the details. Painted in hours of work in my Gimp program and on my PC drawing pad. And let me tell you there is nothing easy to fit such lush textures on a very low-polyed and downsizes papercraft surface like this. Model and pose and staff, of course, also 100% mine.

         

The textures are undeniable the most crisp I have ever conjured up myself and a step up the ladder of my drawing/modeling/papercrafting skills I have refined time and time again during all my business times. So, I am a step further in my confidence on how to make papercrafts look amazing and I am very proud of my work.

The papercraft itself is unfolded to 40 cm tall (12 pages of templates), since I wanted her really to stand out and be the amazing eyecatcher in the room it deserves to be when assembled.

It is made out of a 3D model of Ryza, that stands on her 2 feet (did a physics test, she stands 100%), with some extra separate add ons you make and glue on like that, such as:

    - Her 3D round flasks on the left side of her waist,
    Her 2 2D belts with her petri dishes and small details on it,
  Her 3D flash on her right leg with a 2D holster,
  - Her 3D bag on her left leg with a 2D belt to hold it in place,
    A 2D necklace around her neck,

- Her 2D 2-sided tie on her hat,

And of course, the 3D staff with some 2D 2-sided features to make its assembly really simple.

Everything else, the hat, the hair, her detailed sleeves hanging down her arms, etc., are attached to the main 3D body and are assembled when making Ryza. All in all she has many small add-ons, which I think make the assembly super fun (since it’s like a kind of a dress-up game in some way to me XD ), and the main body is as simple as can be to make, apart from the smaller 3D fingers on her hands – again she is unfolded to 40 cm height with the staff, so the “small” parts are super manageable and for a humanoid papercraft very easy to make, since I made sure of that when putting the papercraft together.

In the future I will make sure to post more of these detailed papercrafts, as far as my time allows it, so you can enjoy the new quality of papercrafts I will make. It’s so rewarding at the end ;_; I love her SO MUCH. I can’t wait to assemble this baby when I got time!!!

Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist) papercraft


Sharing another commission today, so here it is. Since I already did the Alphonse in his armor life-size papercraft..:

https://www.deviantart.com/antyyy/art/Alphonse-Armor-Fullmetal-Alchemist-papercraft-813686244

...I had to do the other half, his brother Edward Elric as well.

This is yet another life-size papercraft for the commissioner of Edward, which is amazingly unfolded to 165 cm. And the shock of it all, YES, he is actually 165 cm tall in the series. WTF! I mean, all the time they nag him and tell him he is small and gets called “chibiko” all the time, YET, he is the same height as ME! What the hell is this! XD 165cm is not small people! Just to tell you now out of the bat…. =_= ちび子て言うな!!!!! :D

The papercraft itself is basically what you see. A whole joined papercraft body, and with a 1-sided cape, since the commissioner wanted it like that because it’s too much trouble to make 2-sided, so he will just paint it over when it’s done. And I do agree when we are talking about life-size crafts, since they are a LOT of work to do anyway.

He has all the parts and the pose from the reference figurine you see, since the commissioner wanted to make it the same pose, since it’s a nice dynamic one and the craft will be able to stand that way and won’t tip over.

I hope you like it, I am sure the commissioner will share the pictures once it is done at the end of the year, so stay tuned for those amazing pictures and happy crafting till then~

 UPDATE:   

As a late Christmas special, I can also update this commissioned papercraft and show you the beautiful work he has done with the assembly. Just look at this cuteness, and a really neatly built craft as well:

Copperajah (Pokemon Sw/Sh) papercraft commission


Sharing another overdue papercraft commission from the new Pokemon Sword & Shield collection. This time it's Copperajah in all its glory.

Copperajah 
The commissioner wanted a special dynamic pose, so that's what he/she got! I think it's a very natural pose for the Pokemon, swinging its trunk around and ready to use it ;)

The whole thing is about 44 cm tall, so it's quite big and so it has no really small fiddly parts to work with. It has 11 pages to print, and of course it also comes with the shiny version of it, as you can also see in the screenshots.

All in all, I think it's a very natural and quite fun pose and the Pokemon should look nice when built. If I get the pictures of it, I will definitely share them on here.

Till then happy crafting~

Celestial Owl (original character) papercraft

Showing another one of my projects, that is maybe from the concept a bit different. Why? Because this one was actually made as an idea I took from another Deviation.

This is a plush that I found while browsing online, and I immediately fell on love with it. But, since I can’t make plushies and I can’t even hold a sowing needle in my fingers, I though of transforming this celestial owl idea into my own style, and this is what I came up with.

This is my original character “Celestial Owl” I made up myself (with the starting idea of the plush) and turned into a papercraft. The craft is 20 cm tall and has 7 pages to print. It is a rather simple craft that I tried to make, a lot of 2-sided flat pieces you just put on as decoration, but with very effective textures that makes it look very elegant. It is essentially a 3D owl, with a 2-sided cape, a hoodie with a 2D crown, his 2D 2-sided wings that you just glue on the cape (for extra effect you add in wide between the 2 wings and you make it articulate and stand that way, so trust me, got to use wire with the wings), and a long 2D 2-sided cape at the back that adds that extra touch of elegance.

The textures are actually very dear to me, because the intricate design I used with the gold colors are so called “mantras” I have been probably drawing op paper since I was 12. It’s my take on Japanese mantra designs and old kanji that I love so much, and that I made into my style for everything I do in real life really. So, I decided to also put the design into my digital 3D work of arts as well, to give it my special kind of touch.

I think you can get the basic idea of how it looks and how easy it is to make by the screenshots of the papercraft itself, and I hope you like the small designs I put into it. There are always some things that inspire me to do something, and this time it was an owl plush that I think it super adorable :) and that made me design a new character I wanted to make out of it.

Shuichi Kagaya (Gleipnir) built papercraft



Decided to assemble another one of my papercraft collection, so this time I am sowing you "Shuichi" from the anime "Gleipnir" in monster form.

The whole dog mascot is about 30 cm tall, so it’s actually pretty easy to put together. There are actually no small pieces on this one, the only fiddly parts are the 2D stitches you can glue on like that or you can leave them out, other than that it’s very relaxing and easy-breezy to make.

I started with the head and made my way down to the feet. First, I made the ears and put together the remaining parts of the head, then I made the separate arms and attached those on the head and made my way down. At the end, when you also made the tail part and glued in on first, you have 2 legs remaining to be made, you make one normally and then close the whole thing at the bottom paw of one leg, and there you go.

All that is left is to put on the 2D straps and star, you can also add the simple 3D gun holster (which you can glue on the leg or just jam in between the leg and arm and it holds perfectly as you can see from the pictures above), and the Furry Gleipnir mascot is finished XD

For more info on the unfold and some more details, you can look it up here:


Hope you like it and happy crafting~
