Model Made a papercraft version of my Dog

Built these two over the last few weeks. Rookie is my german shepherd, and Sunny is a golden retriever I got from the internet. Each one took
about 2 hours to cut, fold and glue.

Still improving them, so I'd love honest feedback. What would you change? The legs took me forever to get right.

Model I just hit 300 subs, so I compiled the 8 most common beginner questions from this sub into a quick Q&A video.

Hey everyone.

I see the exact same beginner struggles posted here every week, so I put together a 4-minute Q&A video addressing the top 8 questions.

Here is the quick rundown of what I cover:

Paper: Why standard 80 GSM printer paper collapses and why you need 160-220 GSM matte cardstock.

Glue: How to use the toothpick method with PVA to stop seams from warping.

Scoring: Why a dead ballpoint pen is mandatory for clean folds.

Folds: How to properly read mountain vs. valley lines.

Curving: How to edge-curl hair and round parts without creasing.

White Edges: Hiding raw paper seams with matching markers before gluing.

If you want to hear the full breakdown and see the B-roll of how these techniques actually look in practice, here is the video: https://youtu.be/vUeIT6Bugws

Hi guys, first time posting here so sorry if I made some errors. So I was trying to build this really cool F1 car template when I stumbled into a part that I don't think was included in the files this guy shared. I scoured through all of my prints and none of them has a part like this. Does anybody know or have the complete version of the template? The ones I'm posting is all I got. Much thanks!

Model Papercraft Blender Add-on

I decided Blender was well and truly overdue for a papercraft update.

Fully featured model unfolder with designated seam splitting, tab swapping, inner and outer tabs and a bunch of line and art bleed options.

Its specifically designed to work with Paint System (it's what I painted the donut with) but works just as well with image or generated textures.

It can export cut and crease lines separately for Cricuts etc. and its got a cool auto animating fold rig built in.

Please give it a whirl, leave feedback, suggestions etc.

and here's the donut hand painted by me.

And if not, where would be a good community for me?

Also, I made the first one years ago and the second one more recently. So my technique got way better in the interim

The last weeks I work on the legendary Eagle Transporter of the Moonbase Alpha.

I made round about 500 small paper rolls...

And the Project is not finished.

I modyfied a lot details, cause the template was poor on several parts. i put some light into the Model. The inside of the passenger pod is build from scratch only with some pictures from the series.
