>>627170Cute and Fat
>>627156You're doing good OP. It's better than my first one.
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.
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.
some sites you use to find templates? im a begginer
>>621939Usually i'm looking fot it at PaperZoneVN, but sometimes at Youtube, Pinterest, yeah cuz i'll take anything free
/po/ is back! What about show me your best Papercraft? doesn't have to be Anime Papercraft, it can be any papercraft.Anyway, i forgot where i got this Tanjiro template, does anyone know where to get this template? Thx.
A: YesOk I don't really know how to read this, it's obvious the paper doesn't have 8 corners but I can't tell when the second piece of paper come in, and what folds are done on what sheet of paper. Any help explaining how to fold this thing? It's a cute gift for a friend.
See the scissor symbol on top of step 14?It means you have to cut both points along the middle line, drawn in bold (but not very visible on this low-res image; in blue on pic related). Then, fold both top-half of these points as indicated.Next, on step 15, fold both bottom-half of the points, and you have your 4 legs.
>>627501Thanks got it done.
I have these books from NOA for 1-1003,5,17-19,22,47,49,51,53,58,61-63,66,68,70-72,80-so onLooking to trade with anyone who has NOA 533 and up or ones that I am missing from 1-100
>>623546>Don't talk nonsense.It isn't nonsense, they do not exist.>All of these are available on some private forums.That's where you're wrong.
>>623383Unfortunately, you're never going to finish this list.
>>623565Well that's of course obvious. It's nice to have the ones that were gently shared, the models are nice to teach kids.

REQUEST: Side-by-side classic shotgunAre there any good weapon paper model makers that would either have a plan already made, links to some, or any help to making one?I've been trying to find one for Quite A While now and have been attemptin to create One by first modeling it out etc. but hit a "bit" of a setback with my computer frying up completely during a thunderstorm.Looking Now for the classic type of shotgun. Attempting to acquire the level of detail and possible function that are akin to the "Paper Manufacturing" brands level of quality.
>>627400https://www.paperizedcrafts.com/search/label/Weapons?m=1no double barreled shotgun, but found some guns.
>>627400https://youtu.be/jlUuQhPrH-c?feature=sharedMight be a help.
>>627400https://pin.it/Zb0NJgJ2LThis might be as close as you can get.
neat!
>>627401I realized it's kind of funny that it's a gamebanana link.
Here's one of a '92 Chevy. Feel free to contribute your own or construct the ones in this thread and posting the results.
print pages 1-2 if your printer does double sided prints well and cut along the linesotherwise print page 3
>>627395new version
am i just retarded or is this really hard to parse? i've folded this many times and i still can't make out what the instructions are trying to convey. i had to watch a video to see how it's done the first time
Anyone got papercraft for the C3 Corvette?
Any instructions for 1/12 accesories or diorama parts? something like ruble or barricades?
Ive done some basic stuff and i want to learn more advanced stuff in origami as a project. What books are good for that?
Search no more mi friend, i started with this book (Im still finishing/reading it) and i consider it a good start: https://ia803201.us.archive.org/1/items/genuine-origami-jun-maekawa-2008/Genuine%20Origami%20%20%5BJun%20Maekawa%5D%20%5B2008%5D.pdf
>>627306this so much.
>>627309I 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 .
>>619941wrong board, scipo
I got this picture of a few pins badges representing animals, possibly origami models (that's probably the intended effect).Any of you know if they are origami models and not just polygon-shaped animals?And if they are origami, any idea of who the creators are?
I don't recognize those, I suspect they're just meant to look like origami without being based on real designs.That said, the koala looks a bit like Gen Hagiwara's and the fox reminds me of one by Hoang Tien Quyet
>>627303Thanks for your answer. I'll try to find pictures of those two models you talked about.
What paper do you guys use for your origami?And what is your favorite paper?
Just sharing this Kangaroo model I just made.
>>627254This stuff(pic related) is my most used as far anything that requires any larger paper with colors. It arrives perfectly square and it's cheap. There is better paper I've used, but it's usually for special models. I think my favorite so far is shadowfold. It's thin and easy to use.
I use car paint masking paper for more complex models.it's strong, thin, keeps it's shape and it's dead cheap.
I've always admired people who can do these things. It's impressive dexterity and a performance just watching it and the results can be so beautiful and tacticle too. Crazy the talent I can see browsing this board. Making me consider trying it so it's interesting to see what papers people are using.
Hemp paper
Here you go.
Thanks
Why delete the other thread?
>>627252It didn't make any sense, did it?
Saw this on Twitter, wanted to repost it here, someone might appreciate this.
Thank you, it was exactly what I was looking for!

>>627239Making a fable diorama now thanks for the idea anon.
i did this like a gift, "When I finished this model, I thought I would feel satisfaction, but I felt nothing, hahaha. I make 6 models for 6 people every year and give them as gifts."
>>627228Do they appreciate your work anon?
>>627228damn, anon. how did you make these? I'm new to the hobby.
>>627230Hello, I am Rhondafojchi (Rhondar). Regarding your question, well... I really hope so. It really depends on how each person takes care of or receives details like gifts. I like giving them. I've been doing origami for a long time, and I think I'm in another stage now, hehe.
>>627231Hello again, there are several paths I followed: tutorials, forums, and diagrams. If you are new, I hope you continue. If you need help, im here for help and show my work.

>>627219if you think he might be receptive you should tell him you regret how you treated him, and ask if you can waste paper with him again. I hope you can mend your relationship, anon.
>>627193Been doing origami since I was 6 off and on. I stopped doing origami for years after my grandmother yelled at me for saying "it's like I'm god creating stuff!" after making an origami deer. I quit origami for a long time after that, but I got back into it.. I can't find the book the deer came in now. It was a very nice model.
>>627193You know she's right.
>>627205The difference is you need to eat. OP is just wasting paper.
