Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows anything about the user Chamoo323, a while ago I contacted Ninjatoes to see if he knows anything and he told me that before retiring he uploaded all his papercraft in a download file

Does somebody know anything about this?

no, admittedly I didn't have any plan when I started and the wings were an afterthought. she just told me she wanted a pink one and I found a pink shirt with a leopard print at goodwill so I went with that. my hairstylist is a derpy hippy chick so I thought butterfly?

I mean, it's a great craf and all, but damn, the shape of the eyes and the color-sheme, it's just so mothman-like, I dunno. Nice work in any case, looks like a lot of handywork and thought were put into it

This would be sick to figure out on my cricut

>>609884
I 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.

I'm guessing this is being done with a scalpel although it wouldn't be too hard to make a die.

How do you make your figures have more consistency? I have thought about resin but I don't know if it is a good option for paper. What method do you use?

hairspray

White glue.

It depends on the paper, but resin can work fine too.
I know of people using colorless nail varnish/polish.
Anyway, best bet is to use a little piece of the paper you intend to use, fold a simple model (traditional crane, for example), and cover it with the stuff of your choice and see if it crumble apart, or stay in shape and harden, or any other result.
>>
>>619920
Hairspray is the cheapest option.
However there are various types of paints that I use for luthier work that also are viable.
You could unironically do a paint spray.
However it would have to be extremely thin and from a distance.
Doing this twice on each side would be enough to ensure it is permanently held this way.
However depending on paper the plant oils would be too wet.

does anyone else remember lucky stars? those origami stars made by gently tying paper? bc I've never heard anyone else acknowledge them and i think I'm going mad

Last week I:

1) Fixed all the broken image links on my webpage!
2) Paid for a Wordpress.com subscription so that my webpage doesn't show ads anymore
3) Got a personal domain name so that now my #papercraft webpage can also be reached using http://ninjatoes.com

The image fix didn't seem to stick though unfortunately, so I'm re-uploading and re-linking all the images again; I already re-did the homepage and some other pages and I'm working hard on the individual download posts, so hopefully everybody can enjoy my papercraft without any issues soon again!

Have fun building!

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.
>>
>>616194
Yes.

Paper figurines are also a thing.
>>
>>616194
Yes, 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.

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 questions

I’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.

Never 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.

Today I've found out about the latest tanteidan issue. It has steps for the mosquito on the cover, I would love to fold it. A digital release is not available and single issues can't be purchased; to get the magazine I would need to buy a yearly subscription. Moreover shipments from Japan can take up to three months in my experience. If anyone has a copy I would gladly pay for a scan with Paypal, thank you.

When I was 10 yo, I got an amazing origami book where I learned about origami "purism" philosophy - always using only one square sheet of paper, no cuts and no glue. What do you think about those self-imposed limitations for aesthetic reasons?
6 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
For a while I was kinda into the restrictions, but these days, I've started thinking they can encourage crappy design. I'm more and more annoyed by over complicated box pleated designs that try to jam a bunch of shit into the model, with no real redeeming features other than masochistic complexity.

Compare that to, say, the recent 2 piece Kyohei Katsuya designs. To me, his puffin or chicken make for much better origami than some super complex box pleat where you're just spending hours folding grids.

There's an appeal to pure origami, but it's disappointing when it leads to designers ignoring folding sequences. When "one square, no cuts" becomes mostly an avenue for making models that are impressive to non-folders, I think it starts getting lame. The point here is to make stuff that's fun to fold, you know?
>>
>>621803
Hot take but I just learned about box pleating a few days ago and I think it's autistic a.f., and I much prefer simple organic designs

Like yeah complex designs can be cool but I think once you start bringing computer software into it then a lot of the magic is lost
>>
>>620948
I don't necessarily stick to squares, though that is useful for standardization. No matter the size of the square, it's still a square to the folds will just produce a final product of different sizes.

I've never done anything with a cut but I suppose I would be open to the idea. I guess I have a preference for no cuts? 100% against glue or other outside physical ways of holding shapes or forming paper. At that point it's not origami anymore, it's just a craft project.
>>
>>620948
All the complex origami models I've seen start with a square paper. Are there any complex models that start with a non square base? I think Satoshi Kamiya's eagle ray has a version starting with rectangular base to get a longer tail.
>>
>>621901
I guess there's Lang's cuckoo clock. Also Maekawa has a couple books of models from 1:sqrt(2) rectangles. though I guess they aren't super complicated designs
