Fallout 3 Combat Knife Papercraft

The first time I remember using a knife in a video game was in Wolfenstein 3D (1992) where a knife is the default weapon if you run out of ammo for your guns. Lots of first-person shooter games include a knife as a melee weapon. Pictured is a 1:1 paper model of the combat knife from Fallout 3 (2008). This model was created by Broken Papercrafts. The Pepakura PDO template for the papercraft may be downloaded here. The style of the Fallout combat knife is reminiscent of a Bowie fighting knife which was designed in the US in the early 19th century.

MapleStory Papercraft: Mixed Golem

Back in 2008 when I first got into papercraft, there was a lot of buzz in papercraft circles about MapleStory papercraft from Korea. MapleStory is a 2D video game, so the fun thing about the papercraft was it allowed you to see how characters from the game might look in 3D. Anyhow, I came across this old MapleStory Mixed Golem paper model recently and it brought back a lot of good memories. The PDF template for the model may be downloaded here. In the video game, this and other types of golems may be found in the Golem Temple which is located in the city of Henesys.

Printable Minecraft Treasure Chest

In the Minecraft video game, the fastest way of finding buried treasure is to use a treasure map (of course!). The treasure is always contained in a chest. There are many types of items to be found in treasure chests including gold ingots, diamonds, iron swords, prismarine crystals and TNT. This large papercraft Minecraft chest was created by Steven Bear in 2014. The PDF template for the box may be downloaded here. This paper model is fairly easy to build, but if you need help, there is a video tutorial located here. Minecraft was first released in 2011.

Marvel Ironheart Papercraft

It is rumored Marvel Studios is working on an Ironheart series for Disney+. In the Marvel Universe, Ironheart is a 15-year-old girl genius who reverse engineers one of Iron Man's suits of armor to create a suit of armor for herself. This paper model of the character was created by Unfold Brazil (build photo by Sinsis). The Pepakura PDO file for the model may be downloaded here. [Please note the download differs somewhat from the model pictured - Unfold Brazil must have modified the model sometime after its initial release.] Actress Dominique Thorne is currently slated to play Ironheart in the Disney+ series.

Disney TaleSpin Seaplane Paper Model

Part of Disney's animated television lineup in the 1990's was a show called TaleSpin. TaleSpin was set in the late 1930's and featured anthropomorphized characters from Disney's 1967 movie, The Jungle Book. The show's plot centers around Baloo the Bear who flies a "Conwing L-16" seaplane named Sea Duck. This paper model of the Sea Duck was created by DeviantART member Strangename19, whose design imagines what the airplane would be like if it were real. A PDF template for the model may be downloaded here. This papercraft is not recommended for beginners as there are no instructions and the parts have no gluing tabs. The design of the Conwing L-16 is thought to be a mashup of two real world aircraft: the Grumman HU-16 Albatross and the Fairchild C-82 Packet.

Space Invaders Pop-up

The first arcade I remember frequenting had mostly pinball machines. In amongst the pinball machines were two black and white video games: Asteroids and Space Invaders. These pixelated space invader pop-ups bring back memories of carefree hours spent in that arcade. The template for the pop-up invaders was created by Popupology and may be downloaded for free on their website. The invaders are small enough that six of them may be printed on a single sheet of cardstock. The color of the pop-ups in the photo was achieved by printing on yellow cardstock.
