2014 Toyota Tundra Papercraft

Toyota Truck Bastelbogen
As you may have noticed, I enjoy posting "oldie, but goodie" paper models. This 2014 Toyota Tundra model was first posted on tundraheadquarters.com over 10 years ago! The papercraft pickup truck was designed for the website by Jesse at papercruiser.com. A PDF of the printable template may still be downloaded here. 2014 was a significant year for the Tundra as its design was updated that year.

Barbie Papercraft: Ryan Mansion

Barbie Ryan Mansion Bastelbogen
I am still working on getting all the Barbie papercraft houses posted! Only one house to go after this one. This series of houses was originally posted on the Barbie website in 2014. Each of the houses belongs to one of the characters on the animated web show: Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse. This is Ryan's Mansion. The Barbie Wiki describes Ryan as:

Ryan is the twin brother of Raquelle. He is constantly trying to woo Ken with one of his songs, much to the anger of Ken. He has a crush on Barbie and is Midge's crush. He is conceited just like his sister.

The printable template for Ryan's Mansion may found in this archive.

Other Houses in the Series:

Barbie's Dreamhouse
House of Ken
Raquelle Mansion
House of Nikki
Casa de Teresa

Dragon Ball Z Papercraft: Mosco

Dragon Ball Z Roboter Bastelbogen
I must admit my ignorance. I never knew there were any robots in the Dragon Ball Z franchise! Apparently, there are more than a few. This colorful paper model depicts the robot named "Mosco". As there is a pilot inside, calling Mosco a robot is something of a misnomer. The pilot is a small impish being known as "Mule". Mule pilots the mechanical suit from inside the belly where he can see out through a small window. PDF and Pepakura PDO templates for this papercraft may be downloaded at the JAV-Papercraft website.

Wolf Warrior Origami Ring

Wolf Ring оригами
I noticed recently there are a lot of people posting original origami videos on Pinterest. Here is one that caught my eye: a "wolf warrior" ring. Now, there was a 2015 movie called Wolf Warrior, but as far as I know, this ring has nothing to do with that. The ring somewhat resembles a Witcher 3D wolf head ring I saw once, but my guess is someone just thought it looked cool to have a ring with a wolf on it. I am inclined to agree. ;) An instructional video on how to fold the ring may be viewed at this Pinterest post.
