Papercraft with additional / alternate materials, aluminum, wire...
>>617961wireframewhoopass at Gmail. send me a screenshot of your (you) and a safe mailing address and I'll send him your way. I would never charge for that. the only reason I made him was for you, charging money for such a thing would be against my principles as a creative new thing in the works. it's a pain
I don't know why I have such a boner for giant robots and power armor
Is papercraft as a hobby dying?
>>616917Looks really good anon, nice job.
>>591172
Things sure are looking bleak.
>>591172i find it as a hobby too look pretty fun. It is just that I dont have enough money or talanet for these things.

>>619984Finally, origami instructions I can understand
Behold, anons.Some esoteric Russian origami and papercrafts.Dated 2005, but I believe this is the fourth edition. Original is from 90s.This particular one is for children, but I know I have a more "advanced" one laying around somewhere.We tend to use paper in a very functional manner in Russia, so it's interesting to see some of the more "practical" designs (from napkin-folding patterns to making a paper cup for sunflower seeds / measuring grains), to making drinking vessels.Here is one of the designs for a Christmas ornament - "fae".Lots of "playable" papercrafts too - sailboats you can blow on to hover over your table, floating boats to send in streams, and many flying toys.Paper-folding in Russia has a rich history stemming from the use of birch bark folded into various containers and cooking implements.Because of the physics of boiling water absorbing heat, these were used for cooking soups and sterilizing stream water without any damage to the birch bark.
>>614495just because its Russian paperwork
Glad it's not russian cursive, ain't nobody able to read that shit.
>>612662>20230404_183238.jpgAnon you forgot to post it.
>>614495fuck you, faggot
>>614495slava keef
Ive done some basic stuff and i want to learn more advanced stuff in origami as a project. What books are good for that?
>>611090this so much.
>>614560I didn't have good experience with this book. The theory is nice, teaching techniques and essential ideas in progressively more complex models. But a lot of the models, in my experience, even simpler ones can be too disappointing/challenging. I mean this book is supposedly written for beginners. I just checked gilad page, reviewing from memory:1. squirrel - the example photo and the one in diagram is different, so your result won't look the same as Jun Maekawa's2. box - "locks" and bullshit don't work. I honestly have no idea how to make this properly without glue3. spiral shell - good luck making everything aligned4. giraffe - I really dislike this one, dunno, the fact you fold the back and hide it behind really annoys me5. helmet - good luck making this stand, even gilad couldn't do it, fuck this model seriouslyI think I dropped the book a few models after this. I kept hitting problems that I blame on subpar models. I decided just to fold stuffs I find interesting from /po/. Not following Maekawa's curriculum. I'm much happier now. I just don't think the book is good recommendation for beginners. -----John Montroll's Teach Yourself Origami's first half has all of the essential models they used to teach in schools.
Try to follow this plan to become a successful folder . 1 .Sonobe .2 . Kusudama .3 tessellation .These are good because very repetitive folds practice makes foolproof and you can use glue for assemblyThen 4 .Beetle . 5 .Fish . 6 .Spider .7 scorpion 8 . Butterfly two colours .9 .Bee two coloursThen try some simple characters .After that you should be familiar enough with diagrams and precrease to attempt more complex models such as birds dragons .
>>611086Start with Alex Jones the Great Reset. You will be doing a lot of folding for the NWO.
>>619941wrong board, scipo
Has anyone used just paper to make terrain pieces for their wargame, sort of like pop up sets like pic related?
I have, a long long time ago during my youth when 3D printers were science fiction and I had even less money than I do now. I remeber making foldable terrain for easy storage. Worked pretty good. The easiest is to make box terrain tho.
>>616194Yes.Paper figurines are also a thing.
>>616194Yes, there are a handful of people publishing war game and rpg papercraft. It's a shame it's not more popular as it has some advantages over 3d printing. https://preview.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/6291/paper-realmshttps://preview.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/346/fat-dragon-games

There used to be a site called Bladerunner Unicorn that had a diagram from Kenneth Thompson. Site seems to be gone, but I was able to find images of the diagram, putting up here in thanks for all the cool stuff I've found on this board.
Yamada Katsuhisa.
Imai Yudai.
I also saved the diagrams from Kens website, here's Gaffs Chicken. I think you can still find these on Pinterest too.
>>619829The website no longer exists, but it is easily located in the web archive:https://web.archive.org/web/20180714055706mp_/http://bladerunnerunicorn.com/_bladerunnerunicorn.com.html
>>619929I never thought to check wayback machine. Thank you for the link.
does anyone have and can share the diagram of this parrot, I think it's in NOA magazine 5, but I can't find that book anywhere.
>>609650Cute it’s a parrot <3
>>611470what species of parrots is that
>>611661DOPICI CO TU DELA CECH KURVA

>>609672People with this hobby are usually mentally ill and have memory problems. Imo, don't look for specific model. Just fold what you found and like.
I had a question but none of the existing threads are really too relevant so I thought making a general help thread from the get-go (beyond what’s in the welcome thread) would be good so even if my question gets answered the thread can be used for other people’s questionsI’m making a papercraft where I want to paint part of it gold for some extra pop, but I want neat and clean lines. I’ve seen a lot of artists use washi tape to do this in their art and I want something similar, but I have inkjet prints and don’t want any of the ink to lift up. Any tape recommendations? Or possibly other techniques? I’ve done some googling but I don’t wanna take my chances with buying a ton of tape just to test it.
Bilibili and NicoNico both video anime type apps have alot of paper craft videos
>>610550Your finna seethe though
Have you tried using gold paper??
>>610550I'm stuck on step 13 of Robert Lang's crab from "Origami Zoo". Pic related.I also don't know how that fucking triangle in the middle exists suddenly. It makes no sense whatsoever.
>>619959Never mind, I figured it out. I think he left out an important part of these steps. The triangle in the middle was the key for what I was doing wrong. I KNEW I had done everything correct up to this point, so it was just about figuring out what I missed.
Day 2988 to go
600. Forgot to take a pic before I hung them up in my shitty rig in the closet, but that's where I'm it. Man, I really only folded 30 cranes in almost 2 weeks. It is what is is>>617985Glad you're enjoying the show! The series is pretty good, but I think the best parts are definitely in the movie. Hopefully you enjoy the series enough to give the movie a try as well, since it also ties up everything very well.>Here's to hoping we have positive changes for our 2024You and me both, brother>>618051>500Man, at this rate you're going to pass me soon. Do you think you'll string them up at some point? Honestly, that is the part that I struggle with the most but it does look kinda nice once you start getting the strands going.>>618010Yeah, it is definitely a time commitment. My estimate is that it'll take somewhere to the tune of 50-60 hours to finish all 1000. It depends a lot on how nice looking you want them to be. The biggest thing I've learnt from the surface level origami I've done is that it is effort in vs effort out. Folding itself is (generally) very simple, but getting as close as possible to the perfect fold takes some patience. I'm not planning on keeping the cranes once I'm finished, so I'm not focused too much on getting super crisp folds.
>>618080660/1000Approaching the final third, wack stuff. Will I speed up? Who is to say. I can say that threading the crows is still awful. If I used larger paper, I probably could have gotten away with thicker string, since the thread floats around and gets caught in the stack as I'm adding new ones. It is what it is, though, and I'll see the end of this all soon enough.
>>59670169 days to go
>>619622760/1000Still keeping at it. Slow and steady and all that. I decided that I'm going to finish them all on Tanabata which, all things considered, is pretty fitting for me. Honestly, I'll probably get to 999 some time next month so I'll just be sitting with one sheet of paper on my desk for a while. To be fair, I've had these papers sitting on my desk for a long while already, so what is another month or two?For the, probably, 2 of you in here who have completed all 1000, what did you do with them afterwards? They take up a lot more space than I expected, so I don't think I'm going to keep them with me. I plan on keeping the 1000th, but I still think I'm just going to but them all on a bonfire once I finish. Feels a lot more symbolic than just throwing them out anyways

>>609884This would be sick to figure out on my cricut
>>609884I feel pain in my hand just looking at this but it's really pretty.
Can I ask about cricut from here? My brother has one and I can use it too, been thinking about making one of these panorama things. Is there a wiki or library of cricut files somewhere just like there is papercrafts wiki? I found some websites already but even the paid files are very "love live laugh" or "jesus is life" style of crafts. I want to make something that´s not targeted towards moms.
It's not hard to do by hand and much more satisfying than using cricut. Print your design, tape it to cardstock and cut through both layers with an exacto knife. It's pretty relaxing.
