RPG Crystal Papercraft

RPG Crystal Recortable
I'm always on the lookout for easy tabletop gaming props. This crystal is a good one! Officially this model is an "Elven Crystal," but it will work in different types of gaming scenarios, not just Fantasy. This model is part of the Lord Zsezse Works collection of Elven Papercraft which was part of a 2015 Kickstarter project. The template for the crystal is currently available as a "pay what you want" item on Drivethru RPG. The model includes both the crystal and the base. The PDF template is customizable with three different base materials and five different crystal colors. The finished model is 2.8" (7 cm) tall.

Plesiosaurus Papercraft

Dinosaur Bastelbogen
The plesiosaurus has always been in my "top ten list" of favorite dinosaurs. I think maybe the theory that the Loch Ness Monster could be a plesiosaur has something to do with that. :) The plesiosaurus was a large marine reptile that lived in the Early Jurassic period. This paper model of the dino created by Paper Lovers may be downloaded here. The printable template comes in both PDF and Pepakura PDO formats. The finished model is about 14" (35.5 cm) long.
