Uhu02 is a famous papercrafter (imho 😊) that created and shared a lot of awesome (mostly science fiction and fantasy papercrafts) of newer and much older movies too on their "die Eule der Minerva" website! They are usually very detailed, but dont worrry too much, because makes lots of pictures of his own build process to help you! 🙂
I think over the years Uhu02 had to deal a lot of pirates (not the fun Jack Sparrow ones, but the extremely annoying ones that steal your work... 👿) that would take his fun papercrafts without giving him credit for his work! So sometimes he would just make them "available for a limited time only" or just for his friends (which you could become by going to The Hobbyist Forum of Zealot Models to ask him for a password so that you could enter his secret library as a friend to download those special papercraft models I think?)
That meant a lot of people saw his website and all those wonderful models that he made, but a lot of them couldn't really figure out how to download them to build them themselves... 🙁
Now the last thing that I had read in 2019 on his website was that he was working on a new papercraft of the Japanese World War II battleship Yamato. I don't know what happened exactly, but in 2026 he wished everybody a "Happy New Year 2026!" while explaining that he was rebooting his papercraft website to include other hobbies like clay crafting too! 😃
So the best news that I happened to come across all 2026 (in all 11 days the year is old 😂) already, is that it seems that for a while now, Uhu02 has been working to fix all the old download links on his website, and it seems you can just download all of his papercrafts now, but more importantly: he's back with a new papercraft already of the Cavorite Sphere from H.G Well's science fiction novel The First Men in the Moon, starting off with lots of research like he always does (so you know it's gonna be awesome again)!
So yes; very Happy New Year 2026 Uhu02! 🥳
