Old Church Papercraft

Once upon a time, there was an Italian papercraft company named Odissey that had some really nice free samples. The company is long gone, but if you look carefully, you can still find some of the free samples hiding in the far corners of the Internet. One such sample is the Old Church paper model pictured. The printable PDF for the church may be downloaded from the archive located HERE. Instructions are included in the download, but be aware the text is in Italian. Be that as it may, the images in the instructions are good enough that the text should not be needed. This model is a good size for miniature gaming and RPG games.

Pokémon Papercraft: Absol

Absol is one of my favorite Pokémon! According to Pokemon.com:

Swift as the wind, Absol races through fields and mountains. Its curved, bow-like horn is acutely sensitive to the warning signs of natural disasters.

That's a pretty handy skill! This papercraft Absol was created by Ten Pepakura. A printable PDF template for the model may be downloaded from Google Drive. Photo instructions for the model are available on the tenpepakura website. Absol is a dark type Pokémon. His Pokédex number is 359.

If you have seen the 1975 movie, Jaws, then you know this boat. It is the Orca.

This paper model is a 1:100 scale "micromodel" designed by Rawen. The one page PDF template for the model may be downloaded from MediaFire.

Cute Origami Cat Rings

What's not to love about these origami cat rings? They are easy to fold, just the kind of project to do with kids. The video instructions for folding the rings from a single square of paper may be found on Pinterest. Rings for small children should be folded from a 6"x6" square of paper. For adults, a 9"x9" square of paper works well. Happy folding!

Loggerhead Turtle Papercraft

I believe this papercraft turtle was originally offered by the Hiwasa Chelonian Museum in Japan. The museum is dedicated to the loggerhead sea turtle. The papercraft was created for the museum by master designer Goto Kei. Although the museum no longer offers the turtle, it can still be downloaded from an Internet archive located here. Please be aware that after following the link, the download buttons for the PDF template and PDF instructions will be "invisible". Hover your cursor in the blank space to the left of the turtle's head and the buttons will appear. Loggerhead turtles may be found in oceans around the world. Build photo by Vermin King.

Disneyland Pirate Ship Paper Model

The Disneyland ship fed thousands of happy people from 1955 until 1983, when it was demolished.

The actual size of an Asian giant hornet is about 2 inches (5 cm) long. It is the largest hornet in the world.

However, the JPG template sheets for the hornet (along with instructions) are still available at this Internet archive. The giant Asian hornet is a serious threat to honey bees in the United States.
