Easy RPG Hovel Papercraft

This easy papercraft hovel is intended for use in role playing games like Dungeons and Dragons. I like its cartoony, hand-drawn simplicity. I also like that if you lift the building up, underneath is a 2D floor plan showing the furniture layout inside. The template for this free RPG papercraft sample may be downloaded from the Patreon page of 2-Minute Tabletop. With only six pieces in the template, the model is a quick build.

Saint Seiya Gold Knights Papercraft

The Saint Seiya franchise includes manga, anime, and most recently, a live action film. In the Saint Seiya universe, there are 88 knights (aka saints) who fight for the goddess Athena. The 12 most powerful of these knights are the "Gold Saints", who wear golden armor. Pictured are papercraft figures of all 12 of the Gold Saints. These paper models were created by Adriano. The PDF templates for the models may be downloaded at his website, Titan Papercraft. Be sure to check his dozens of other Saint Seiya papercraft while you are there! Build photo by Rhuan Thales.

Pokémon Papercraft: Litten

Against my better judgement, after 7 years away, I have started playing the Pokémon Go video game again. Of course this inspires me to post more Pokémon papercraft. :) First up is this Litten papercraft by DeviantART member, RavaMaster. Litten is a seventh generation Pokémon that is basically a fire cat. It spits out flaming hairballs. Ha! In the anime, Ash Ketchum catches a Litten and manages, over time, to fully evolve it. The paper model comes in two sizes: 6" (15 cm) and life size. The template for the model is available in two formats: Pepakura PDO (open with Pepakura Viewer) and PDF. There are no instructions other than the PDO file. Links for the various downloads may be found on DeviantART.

Half-Life 1 Papercraft: 357 Magnum

Someone correctly guessed the four images on my 15th anniversary post. So, as a "prize", I am releasing this paper model of the 357 Magnum from the Half-Life 1 video game. Printable templates for the model may be downloaded from Mediafire. Included in the ZIP download are a locked Pepakura PDO file (for reference when building), plus A4 and Letter size PDF templates. I tried to make the model as close to 1:1 scale as possible. You will notice the gun has no finger hole at the trigger! The 3D model that was the basis of this papercraft didn't have the hole and I chose to leave it as it was. If you are good at customizing papercraft, it should be no big deal to cut in a finger hole if you want one.

Papercraft Christmas Star Ornament

I like the geometric quality of this papercraft Christmas star ornament. I believe the technical name for this shape is the "first stellation of an icosidodecahedron". Please correct me if I am wrong. :) This papercraft is one of several different star ornaments that may be downloaded at the Brother Creative Center.  This star has 32 points. The other two stars in the series have 8 points and 14 points.

Egyptian Funerary Mask Papercraft

This life size papercraft mask is very close in design to the gold funerary mask of pharaoh Tutankhamun. However, it is missing some of the features of King Tut's mask like the vulture and the cobra on the forehead. I don't know the author of this paper model, but a link in the template seems to indicate it originated in Russia. The unlocked Pepakura PDO template for the model may be downloaded on Mediafire.
