Welcome, this is a SHARING thread, where you request and share single diagrams (preferably). And I would like to encourage sharing this mockingbird.
>>609749Wei Lin Chen has an instagram and Youtube ,so just ask him .Also I believe Nicholas Terry stopped the origami pass a year ago
>>621797Doesn't appear to be in any OriFancy magazine.
>>621800 right ,i literally just downloaded them all but the author said on this twitter post it was going inside Orifancy , number seven is late
>>620499Thank you from the future, for a nice Bactrian camel gram. I love my Kawahata one in Duo Thai and I'm excited to try another styleI have no single diagrams anymore; for the past several years I've gotten a lot of material out of the defunct Mega once shared here, but most of that's gone. I hope I don't offend anyone by sharing a scan of a book. It's a common one that I've owned a while and I've also bought for others.
Hey /po/, I'm looking for good youtube channel recs to follow. I specially remember someone on here sharing their own channel and I found it kinda neat but couldn't find it ever again (it was something to do with their own personal collection of paper toys / scans). Post good youtube channels centered on papercrafts, origami, paper toys, dioramas etc and try to avoid any of that stupid kiddie shit please.

Hi new to this board, but I like animation and was wondering if papercraft animation might be something worth pursuing. This is my channel and looking for other art form varieties. https://youtube.com/@doodlebobanimations7727

I recently bought photo cubes to make dioramas but I really can't find any free templates so I would like to ask if anyone has the pdf of the GUMY art or BubzTea templates.

I'm trying to figure out some way to have a groudon/ kyogre attached to a winding gear that animates it like the game, plays the cry, then resets. Where would I look for resources to design something like this?
>>619668Try looking into paper automata/automaton like Rob Ive's stuff and work from there. Just google it to see examples.
>>616189hory shit anon, this shit is fire.
>>616189>file no longer existssomeone got the op picture?
From the Edo, Meiji or Taisho periods. Here my own attempts at paper models from over 200 years ago.
>>607626That's really good anon, maybe I should attempt one of the other templates myself.
>>603976looks good but try painting with watercolors
These are awesome! Consider taking it to another level by putting maybe a black card stock on the cardboard or even start on black posterboard!
>>603976OP, thanks for sharing these tatebanko. It’s great to see the final product. May I ask what the dimensions are of the uncut sheets?
>>603976I reckon the flat walls need layers of card.
Is it possible to create a highly detailed 1:64 papercraft car?
>>604446can you download it? Then how do you print it, regular print on a A4 shiet of paper?
>>607296yes, i just downloaded onehttps://web.archive.org/web/20001020162931/http://member.nifty.ne.jp/papermodel/pdfs/Sna002.pdf
is that paper really?

I don't see any box designing thread here.So picrel is what I think the well protected design to safely deliver fragile items, but this design is only good for small bottles but not for big items, such as for an item that's 2/3 size of a coffee table. I tried using the same material (cardbox) but the strength of the box couldn't support it. How would you improve this design so that I could still use the cheap card board stocks while at the same time it's able to retain shocks from being tossed around?
>>622199>I don't see any box designing thread hereDid you expect one??
i made this for my motherhappy birthday momplease share your creations too ^_^
I should go and make a paper crane for my mom or something...
>>619857This is among the nicest boards of 4chan
>>622196From what I can see when I visit this place once in a lifetime, it's either the nicest, or in the top 5 of the nicest ones
>>619884>irellavantdumbass
>>619857Wow anon, this looks amazing!
My stuffSay nice things about it

>>615798 How much time did you spend for this? This is a very cool origami
>>615798That has definitely taken a ton of work and dedication to the goal.
>>615816A mother fucking Ingram!!!
>>615798So clean, so organised, how did you even make these

Super neat
>>616071That an actual beetle?
>>616071Bring back vivid life, this thing looks awesome!
Does Origami help getting a gf?
>>622300Jesus christ no!
>>622300Big if true. It’s fucking over…
>>566458>does crafts help you at getting a gf?yeah if you're scouting kindergartens or women with autism maybesports or some niche stuff that she will be interested in would work betterit mostly boils down to your bank account and height to be honest, after that the last dealbreaker outside of your control is your dick sizeapart from that just be self confident to the point of looking like a narcissist high on cocaine who just won the lottery and had sex with his dream girl 24/7
>>622367literally this, and parents who don't force their kids to do regular sports too should be jailed or even killed. Origami and other nerdy stuff like it can help you get a girl but only IF you ALSO fit and "sportsey", and even without the girl shit you are just better as a human if you are fit, and specifically you are better at nerdy stuff too if you are fit, a fit body and good brains are a good combo, there is no downside
>>566458I guess, if you can do it really well, then it's possible.
made years ago and I want to recreate, cannot find the diagram or name of the shape anywhere
That's called XYZ, and your picture seems to be Francis Ow's model.You can find its diagram here:https://owrigami.com/diagrams.php
>>621297thanks!
>>621291man that's cool it doesn't even seem possible
>>621301No problem.
>>621291the 3d paper jew

>>622302nice
>>622306This. At work I leave them all over the place because I make out out of every old sticky note once im down with it. Could probably do it blindfolded and one handed by now
