Papercraft Urban Buildings for Miniature Gaming

This collection of papercraft urban buildings was created for Dropzone Commander, a 10mm scale sci-fi tabletop wargame. Each of the buildings is nicely detailed with projecting balconies, roof top mechanical units, and parapets that are double sided. PDF templates for the buildings are available for download at the Hawk Wargames website. Also available are printable roads to place between the buildings.

Disney Cheshire Cat Fortune Teller

This printable Cheshire Cat "fortune teller" toy is the same shape as D12 dice used in RPG games. The toy works on the same principle as the "Magic 8 Ball" toy (only the die inside the Magic 8 Ball has 20 sides instead of just 12). Having only two pieces, the fortune teller is a quick and easy build. The papercraft template for the toy is available here.
