Do any other fa/tg/uys prefer papercraft dungeons and terrain to the plastic stuff?
Nobody "prefers" fucking papercraft
>>97263675They are MAYBE more environmentally sustainable compared to plastic. Which is good. But we just draw them anyways and dont really use terrain.
>>97263738>>>/po/ is still a thing>>97263747wouldn't plain old wood be even more eco-friendly since there's fewer processing steps than making paper?
>>97263675No. It's too much effort for how poorly it lasts and looks.
>>97263756I'm obviouly talking in the ttrpg contextOf course people "prefer" to build papercraft origami than gundamsBut OP asked in AS OPPOSED TO PLASTIC
>>97263738Just texted my friend asking if he prefers papercraft to plastic. He replied with this.
>>97263756Generally true. Depends on the type of wood material I think. But we was comparing plastic and paper.
>>97263756>/po/ is still a thingAnon, there are threads on that board coming up a decade old. There's a thread with 6 posts dating back 2 years.
>>97263835Why is that tho? Did hobbies just die? Or is it just this site?
>>97263893People who care about origami are not going to the mongolian serial killer and darkweb hacker forum known as 4chan. It's as shrimple as that.
>>97263893death of the internet and weeaboo culture.you and i both KNOW there's an oekaki board. but is it still active? do Java applets even still WORK in 2025? who knows.
>>97263756>>>>/po/ is still a thingI had to reread that one three times before i got it.
>>97263893/po/ is so toxic that it killed itself, is what happened.
I like it personally and making a map with a few papercraft objects and character stands is much easier done than figures. It's a lot more delicate though and if one of your players is a IRL Ogre with meat-clamps for hands you won't play long with your stuff. >>97263756Wooden or paper wouldn't be much difference in "sustainability" since a few sheets of paper can yield a lot of objects but wood figurines are much more durable. That being said, proper woodwork is an art in itself and you are probably hard pressed to find people able to craft something half-decent as a figurine. I'm not half bad at diy projects and love working with wood for desks, couches cabinets etc but making a beautiful sculpt is really difficult and takes a lot of time.
>>97263675 I don't really have a preference but some papercraft terrain look pretty nice. I used to have a pretty decent sized collection, haven't looked in /po/ in an age. There were some pretty impressive creations there. One thing about papercraft was that they don't stand up to handling in the long term. I remember seeing someone running a home brew game at a convention ages ago, she put a ton of work into a card/paper town and I'm just imagining the state of those buildings now, if they're even still around.
>>97263738 Certainly not me. Can you imagine the paper cuts?
