You too can have your very own Superyacht! ...yes, a papercraft one, but it's a start! 😉

You can find quite a few videos on Paperwerft's YouTube channel of various papercraft boats that he built. The videos show you an overview of the steps, and he included the links where you can download them to build them yourself too! 🚢

In fact, he likes making papercraft boats so much, that he also made one himself now, a real sleek looking Superyacht! 😀

The link is in the description of his video just like for the other papercraft ships, in his video he even shows how he put a light inside for the cool effect you see in the picture!

Ah yes, the vertical portait mode video. 😋

I just made this because I was excited that I finished the final build for my Tomb Raider 3 RX-Tech Mines vignette; these are actually all the papercraft Tomb Raider vignettes I made so far! (I also made a few others of course)

The other ones are already available for free from my papercraft webpage (https://ninjatoes.wordpress.com/), and once I finish the instructions and take some pictures of the new RX-Tech Mines one, I'll put it up there for free download from one fan to the other as well.

Stay tuned and have fun! 😃

papercraft Tomb Raider III RX-Tech Mines vignette WIP 7 (final build update)

I'm finally working on the final build for the Tomb Raider III RX-Tech Mines vignette! Even though I'm actually really not a very clean builder 😁 I hope you can still see the difference between the quick test build and the final build. 😉

I also decided to sharpen the "ROCK TECHNOLOGY" logo on Lara jacket a bit; the textures are very small (sometimes just 32x32 pixels!) so if you scale that a bit to print as a papercraft model, it often gets a bit blurry which is especially noticeable on text like this. But I think it looks good! 😃

(I did the same for the SOLA logo on Lara's chest for the Tomb Raider II 40 Fathoms vignette 🙂)

I still have to accessorize the final version (Dual Pistols and holsters, Wrench and Bottomless Packpack) and then I'll start on the mine cart and the stand.

(and then I'll make the instructions, pictures etc. and then I'll put her on my papercraft webpage as free download )

Stay tuned! 🙂

papercraft Tomb Raider III RX-Tech Mines vignette WIP 6: Final build start

If you ever built one of my papercraft models (except the really early ones...) you'll know that I like to take pictures during the final build to use as instructions. I always start with an overview of the tools you can use to build your own version:

Essential tools:

• Thicker paper to print the parts on: if you use 120, 160 (what most people seem to use) or even 200 gsm (what I like to use personally) paper, not only will the final paper model be stronger, I always feel it is also actually easier to shape and handle the parts, because you can use the stiffness of the paper to help the parts keep their shape better. gsm stands for "grams per square meter" (also abbreviated as g/m²). 120 gsm paper is about 1.5 times as thick as regular printer paper, which is usually about 80 gsm. 160 gsm is about twice as thick, and 200 gsm about 2.5 times.
• A sharp knife: you can really use any sharp knife, as long as it has a fine point. I like to use an X-Acto knife with a #11 blade, but a lot of people also like to break a simple break-away knife.
• A cutting mat: to protect your tabletop from cuts when you cut the parts from the paper. Preferably self-healing so that you can use it a loooong time.
• Glue: to glue the parts together obviously once you've cut them from the paper and shaped them the right way.

Not-really-essential-but-helpful/to-make-the-final-paper-model-look-better tools:

• A toothpick / thin metal rod: useful to make small, curved parts (by bending the part around the toothpick or the metal rod) but also to reach inside thin parts; parts always stick together better when you press them together, but sometimes you can't reach inside certain parts because your fingers are too thick or not long enough. Then you can hold the thoothpick or metal rod against the inside of the gluing flap, while you apply pressure from the outside.
• Color markers: especially when you use thicker paper, when you cut the parts from the paper, you will see the inside / crossection of the paper when you glue the parts together and this will show as white lines on the final paper model. You can use markers in the appropriate color to color those white edges before gluing the parts together. Because the color always turns out a little bit darker than usual, test the color on a scrap piece first, and for light colors it's best to use pencils.
• Whatever else you can think of: You can really use any tools that you might find helpful of course! 🙂 People use tweezers for small parts, scissors because they like them better than a knife, small clothes pins to keep parts together while they dry, special tools (or just a dead ballpoint or other blunt tool)  to 'score' ('scratch' / indent) any fold lines before folding them... Use whatever makes it easier for you! 😊

Well, hopefully the final build will go smoothly, and I can show the end result soon; stay tuned!

official free papercraft Back Arrow Briheight Muga robot suit

What do you think of this papercraft Muga! 🤖😀

...okay, I understand this might needs some explaining for a lot of people:

- Back Arrow is an anime series about the land of Lingalind, which is surrounded by a World Wall that's 10,000 meters tall and about 3,000 kilometers in diameter.

- Every month, a Rakuho (capsule) is sent from the Wall with a gift inside, like a Bind Warper.

- Bind Warpers are armband-like items that transform into a Briheight when you put them on.

- Briheights are robot-like suits that give the wearer special abilities.

- Muga is the Briheight that is piloted by Back Arrow, who himself actually came to Lingalind inside a Rakuho capsule.

Of course this is all just an excuse to make have a bunch of cool guys and cute girls fight cool robot-suit battles. 😉 But hey, you get a nice, free papercraft out of it (...and a bunch of cool guys and cute girls fighting cool robot-suit battles!) so who's complaining! 😊

free papercraft Kinugawa basin dams

Japan has a a lot of hills, mountains and rivers, which it harnesses by creating water basins for flood control, agricultural water supply and generates hydroelectric power.

We already saw several papercrafts of Japanese dams, and here are four more major dams that create the Kinugawa basin in the Tochigi Prefecture: Ikari, Kawamata, Kawaji and Yunishigawa dams.

papercraft Tomb Raider III RX-Tech Mines vignette WIP 5: On with her head!

The RX-Tech Mines vignette test build is finally finished!  😀

It doesn't look very pretty, but don't forget: Lara did get hit in the head by a steel girder last time... -eh I mean: don’t forget, this is just a test build. 😉

The head is basically made out of three main parts: Lara's face, her hair and her ponytail - but did you know she didn't even have the ponytail she's now famous for in the first Tomb Raider game? 😉

So now, as the Straeh fo Neeuq Queen would say (well, yell): "On with her head!" 🂽 😊

Of course as always (literally - as always: no matter whether she's on the mythical island of Atlantis, high up in the Himalaya mountains, 40 fathoms under water, or deep inside a freezing mine on Artarctica... 😉) Lara has her trusty Dual Pistols and her bottomless Backpack (that she stole from a certain unfortunate fedora-wearing adventurer...) with her .

Also: how much fun would the obligatory no-weapons levels from the classic Tomb Raider games be if Lara could find a Wrench like this to whack enemies on the head with? 🔧😋

Now that the test build is done, all I have to do now is finish up the 3D model, unfold it again, put together the final templates, build the final version, take pictures while building the final version for the instructions, make the instructions, make a a release video and pictures, and upload it on my papercraft webpage to download for free!

...wait: that's actually still quite a lot of work; stay tuned! 😊
