MCU Thanos Papercraft

One of the dramatic high points in all the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies is when the villain Thanos finger snaps half the beings in the universe out of existence using the mystical Infinity Gauntlet. This paper model is of Thanos wearing the Infinity Gauntlet. The template for this model comes in both PDF and Pepakura PDO formats. It may be downloaded at W R Papercrafts. The finished model stands 23.6" (60 cm) tall.

Low Poly Papercraft Sharks

The Paperhero online papercraft store currently offers four different free samples of their low poly paper models. My favorite of the bunch are these two sharks. The sharks are intended to be displayed together as wall art, placed in proximity to each other to form a subtle "ying yang" pattern. The sharks shown are black and white, however they may be printed on any color cardstock. The PDF template downloads for these may be found on the Paperhero website.

Golden Kamuy Papercraft

I really love the simple style of this chibi papercraft. However, I didn't know a thing about the Golden Kamuy manga / anime on which the papercraft is based. I had to dig some. What I found is Golden Kamuy follows the exploits of a Japanese veteran in the early years of the 20th century. The veteran's name is Saichi Sugimoto. This papercraft is of one of Sugimoto's antagonists in the series, Hyakunosuke Ogata. Villians Wiki describes Ogata as "a lone sniper, loyal only to himself." The PDF template and instructions for this papercraft may be downloaded at Muumin Craft. If the sniper rifle is not to your liking, alternate props for the figure include a rose and a coffee mug.

DC2 Holy Daedalus Blade Papercraft

The 2002 Dark Cloud 2 video game features two playable characters, a boy named Maximilian and a girl named Monica. Monica is a royal who receives a sword from her father, King Raybrandt. This sword is known as the "Holy Daedalus Blade." The paper model pictured is a 1:2 scale replica of that blade. This is my 136th papercraft release! Letter and A4 size PDF templates for the blade may be downloaded from MediaFire. Outside of North America, Dark Cloud 2 was released as Dark Chronicle.

Area 88 Manga Mini Paper Aircraft Collection

The 1980s manga series, Area 88, tells the story of a young pilot named Shin Kazama. Dozens of real life aircraft were featured in the series. This collection of mini Area 88 aircraft paper models was created by R & P Models. The thirteen planes in the collection include the F-8E Crusader, the F-20 Tigershark, the AV-8 Harrier, the Mirage F.1, the F-105D Thunderchief, the F-14 Tomcat, the Jak-38M, the Electric Lightning, the F-104 Starfighter, the Blackburn Buccaneer, the F-8 Crusader, the Saab 35 Draken, and the A-10 Thunderbolt II. Each of these models is very small. In fact, the templates for all thirteen planes fit on just two sheets of paper! The PDF template may be downloaded here.

Easy Printable Pirate Ship Playset

The old family.disney.com website (later known as "Spoonful") had lots of great papercraft projects parents could do with children. But alas, the Spoonful website shut down in 2014. One of the Spoonful projects I liked, was this easy printable pirate ship. The playset included a 3D ship, cannons, and some 2D pirate figures (including a few skeleton crew members!) An archived copy of the playset's PDF template (along with instructions) may be found at this: download link. Besides paper, what else is required to build this ship are some drinking straws to hold the sails to the masts.

Dune Papercraft: House Atreides Ornithopter

For those of you who enjoy building complicated papercraft, give this Dune paper model a try. It is a scale model of the House Atreides Royal ornithopter as seen in the newest Dune movies. The adjustable wings on this model are what makes it interesting to build. The PDF template for the ornithopter may be downloaded at MediaFire. Czech paper model designer, Rawen, created this papercraft in 2024.
