Fuck it, my curiosity has won in the end after seeing this board be here for years.How can I start off doing origami as a beginner with no previous experience aside from making paper airplanes? (If that counts)
>>627520Try Jo Nakashima's channel, he has a variety of easy to insane folds. Also he has the steps diagramed on the screen while he's folding so you can get a feel for what the symbols mean. https://www.youtube.com/@jonakashima/featured
>>627520easiest way is to just get any paper you have on hand and cut it into a square (look up how) then follow a tutorial on youtube.
>>627556https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2rYqrmyWAEI love Jo's designs, I just got done folding his duck. The way this one balances is really fun
I fixed that pesky cheek. I'm a lot more fond of this model than I was expecting
>>627584>>627586Sweet! He's got some amazing stuff on there, I've got a origami rubik's cube at work. Bitch to put together though :p

We are so back paper folding bros
>>627495You know what? I wouldn't be surprised of how badly this website is handled by the mods and owner.
>>627469I haven't folded in a while, but felt sad hearing this board could be gone forever.
>>627495Not being able to load PDFs is a crock of shit.Why take that feature away? They should have just left the site down then.

>>623773that's really nice
>>623774Yes. This is beautiful. Where do I get the pieces from or can I fashion them myself ?
>>623775Just print and cut
Day 2988 to go
>>625687that was me. still thinking about what could've been. tried to find the same kit online to no avail, similar ones look worse in quiality and are much more expensive. it's a stupid thing to get upset over, but to me it's just another proof that i can't finish anything i start
>>625734>>625735>>625736Congratulations on finishing, anon. I'm sorry about what happened in the middle of your folding journey but it's nice that you finished on Tanabata. >>625739>it was the fitting end for my journey. Life is all about moving on, and that is want I most wantedThese are some beautiful last words to end your journey. It's been a treat folding with these cranes with you. I wish you the best in whatever you do in the future.
>>625741Thanks so much for the kind words, anon. Admittedly, my life's still on hold for the time being, but at risk of turning this into a blog post, I'll just leave it as "we'll see how things end up". I'll say that it is nice to be able to fold things that aren't cranes again. To keep things on topic, I keep a set of paper at work that I usually fold with when I'm bored. It isn't the easiest paper to work with, but here's a horse I attempted today.I will say that I hope someone picks up the journey sometimes soon. I know threads aren't at huge risk of dying here, but I'd be lying if I said that I'd be ok letting this thread die out.As a side not, I guess some of my images got deleted? Not really sure about that one but alright>the front legs on the horseYes, I fixed those after I took the photo >>625740I think that, if it really is something you want to do, you should still pursue it. Cranes are very simple to fold, so you can really use whatever paper you find to fold them with. One ream of A4 can easily be cut down into 2000 squares if you want some easily accessible paper. There is also something special about origami made from found paper, so you could also get creative with were you get your sheets from if you're short on money. I guess what I'm saying is don't let it get to you too much. I've never liked the whole "it's not about the destination" outlook, but I'd hate to see you quit the journey over this. It is a very cool thing to dedicate yourself to that few people rarely try
>>625727Belated congratulations on your cranes!
>>627485Thank you! Can't believe that it's been over a year since I finished.
Post girls und panzer paper craft and related! I have been looking for the full Papercraft any help is appreciated
Is papercraft as a hobby dying?
>>596681>>608854seconded. i go to ren fair every year now since the big sick, and me and my friends make costumes out of nothing but cardboard (last years was a tamagotchi, pic rel). which i guess is more cosplay, but still. there are more ways to use papercraft than making a lil thing to sit on your shelf
>>621146>we do what we must, because we can
>>627565why does the pic make me feel sad
>>627566It might be the heavy shadows, I was too lazy to set up a second flash to give the shot more natural-looking lighting
>>627572Set up some proper lighting and it looks a lot better imo
Pizza Cube
Happy birthday pizza cube!
Its 1 day late but, happy birthday Pizza Cube.
4chan is back?And the retarded 15 min wait on new cookies is down to 2 min?!
>>627353happy birthday pizza cube!
>>627353Is it possible to learn this power?
Made a origami transformer (brawl). Personaly think its way better than a lot of whats been on the internet. Could only use printer paper so the model is still very limited and simple, tho i suppose thats a strength depending on how you look at it
bumping this thread cause this is awesome

>>626381lol at the paper cranes.
Two of the Paperized customs I've done last year might be better known among German audience.These papertoys are from the latest film, based on children's books about Der Räuber Hotzenplotz:Petrosilius Zwackelmann as played by August Diehlhttps://www.blog.private-universe.net/2024/05/28/papercraft-paperized-petrosilius-zwackelmann/Robber Hotzenplotz, as played by Nicholas Ofczarekhttps://www.blog.private-universe.net/2024/07/24/papercraft-paperized-robber-hotzenplotz/
Lawrence of Arabia papertoys I've made in 2022, to celebrate the film release anniversary.Download free PDFs here:https://www.blog.private-universe.net/series/lawrence-of-arabia-papertoys/
Is there a higher quality version of this book? It's called Dinosarios De Papel by Fernando Gilgado Gomez. Around steps 14 and beyond, it's asking to Hundir something. But then something seems weird on step 19. Either I can't read Spanish or it's asking to do an impossible sink fold.

>>627528 (You)PONTE EN MI LUGAR SI NO TUVIERAS LAGO LO BUSCARIAS, Y SE QUER TU TIENES UNOS LIBROS QUE QUIERO, ASI SEAN DOS O TRES
>>627552I don't remember stepping on your toes, but OK then. I probably have those two books already anyway.
>>627349kek, my stars turned out so crappy. they look like blobs after doing it for 2 hours.
Are you supposed to cut out the text "make your own star"?

Easy and understandable instructions!

Hey I know the overlap between people who like paper modeling stuff and people who like home designs is small, but does anyone else do something similar to this? Design a little home layout in MS paint, print it out, cut it out, and tape/glue it together? It's nice to be able to better visualize home designs than just in my head and it helps me avoid using software. I've made a few of these and just finished this one about ten minutes ago. Seeing everything else here I know it may be a bit sub-par quality, but I'm still happy with how it turned out :)
>>624119I studied architecture so we did this sometimes.It's nice when you do it out of love and have time, it's hell when you have to pull all-nighters the whole week and do them as quick models to trash and modify on the fly for the final real model.
>>624119just learn blender/use a floorplanning CAD software or something.
>>624123how do I print it? what settings should I use?
>>624119I wonder how many architects used card models? Although they probably only used the card for walls with balsa framing.
>>624119I made a cardboard model similar to this in 5th or 6th grade of my whole house for a school project. I forget the scale, but the walls were maybe an inch high. So like 1:96 maybe? Took it to my friend's house and WD-40 flamethrowered it in his back yard. It was the '80s; that kind of thing was normal then. You kids have no idea.
couldnt find any good hk papercrafts on the interwebs, literally made my own (picrel is part of it) and it came out pretty ass. I know there was some official papercraft, but I couldn't find any scans (at all) help?
