>>620571Ah well, good for you.I don't have much else to offer I guess
>>620577I guess not, especially if all you have is what's already on line, and easily accessible.
>>620506>>620521i got an actual copy of KOA 2014 and this other one
>>620692im desperate lmao
Been looking everywhere for a manual on this but no luck. Anyone has a good way to start?
>>620232I want something like this for 1/12 figs
>>620232Can't you just attempt to build it and see what happens are is it a difficult model?
>>620678like they said this seems pretty simple honestly
I found a mega full of printable files a while back. The mega is long gone, though.
Does anyone have the template of this old model of Data from Megaman Legends series? I have been looking everywhere for sometime now and every link or site is dead... Thanks in advance.
>Most easy diagrams are too boring and done too quickly>Most hard diagrams are impossible with most origami paperAnybody have books or diagrams that require more than your basic origami skills, yet don't require very fine paper to complete? Some of the easier diagrams from amazing origami is what I'm looking for.
>>620636so you want something easy but hard... you get the irony in your request, I hope?
>>620637>Intermediate level diagramsAnon...
join a site like https://www.zhezhixueyuan.com/?fromuid=130363 ,wechat or weibo ,,diy ,saysaysay.net or what have you facebook groups
>>620636I get what you're saying. Find another hobby. That's what I did. I think I have folded everything I wanted to fold.
In remembrance of the last paper planes thread, which just so happened to be one of the oldest boards on 4chan that passed away quite recently, this thread will serve as its successor. Hopefully this thread won't be prematurely bumped into oblivion like the last one did.Anyways, this thread could serve as a sort of "Paper Planes General". Feel free to post your designs, .pdf files, and folding instructions. Anything goes as long as it flies or at least looks like its supposed to.
Here's another website for very tiny-scale paper model vehicles. Most don't have instructions, but the templates themselves should be pretty straightforward to assemble.https://prmodels.webnode.cz/sitemap/Seems like they made a follow-up website with a giant folder of all of their models, but it's been abandoned since 2020 and the download link doesn't work anymore, unfortunately.
Stop it you're killing the pendulum clock thread
>>620558That thread is only on page 5. It still has a while before it gets bumped off. Besides that, who cares when it gets bumped off? Good riddance.
>>619540I just made the "Clean SST" and WOW it flies brilliantly. Magnificent glide ratio.
>>620639The original designs tend to fly better, since they weren't constrained by looking like something that already exists. That being said, the concord appears to be just about the same as the clean SST, but with the wing slung lower. I haven't directly compared performance but it might be interesting. If I remember correctly the circular wing canard flies really good too, as do the F-15 and F-22 models (though I may be thinking of A. Suzuki's versions). The Trilinear series is pretty cool. The increased rigidity provided by the fuselage geometry is really useful when launching with a rubber band.
how did I do?
>>620586I also downloaded a load of papercraft on Pinterest and some from deviantart.Made a tiny book today, going to make more so I can build a mini library.
>>620595Good call with Pinterest. I usually forget it even exists but I just did a search and found tons of models.
>>620594usually i use my finger to wipe the glue onto the tab so its not so much, i have tape strips on my table I can wipe my finger on then lol, qtips are goot for cleanup too, I have some gundam ones that are hard and pointy I like to use.I use tacky glue too, i only ever rememeber it because gold and purple bottle
>>620604I'm getting better at this. I *almost* completed a Herbie the Love Bug model but ended up ripping it when I foolishly decided to use CA to bond two tiny parts that were different to hold together. I figured it would be easier to do it that way so that it would dry quickly and then use regular glue for the rest. It did work well until I pulled back my finger which somehow got itself stuck to the paper. I won't do that again.This is a very fun hobby.
>>620679get yourself a tweezer set, i have a few bent ones for purposes of holding stuff together
Here's one of a '92 Chevy. Feel free to contribute your own or construct the ones in this thread and posting the results.
as well as the final result
What's the name of that paper that feels kind of like thin plastic but you can still print on it? Or what paper you recommend to print them that feel a bit solid but not too heavy?
>>620671
>>620672
>>620673Anyone got something like guillotines or the like that could go with 1/12 scale?
Today I've found out about the latest tanteidan issue. It has steps for the mosquito on the cover, I would love to fold it. A digital release is not available and single issues can't be purchased; to get the magazine I would need to buy a yearly subscription. Moreover shipments from Japan can take up to three months in my experience. If anyone has a copy I would gladly pay for a scan with Paypal, thank you.
>>620640Not, unfortunately. One person asked for it, but that's it. Sharing completely stopped on zhezhixueyuan.
>>620641Good to know. Thanx.
It has just bout been available for a year

I wanted to share this, but didn’t want to make a new thread for it, this thread seems appropriateI recently went to an anime con and this company was promoting their vtuber by giving out paper craft kits of her for freeThis is my first paper craft since I was 12, now I want more
>>615799>>616022>>617655>>620522Nice dubs
Day 2988 to go
>>619622760/1000Still keeping at it. Slow and steady and all that. I decided that I'm going to finish them all on Tanabata which, all things considered, is pretty fitting for me. Honestly, I'll probably get to 999 some time next month so I'll just be sitting with one sheet of paper on my desk for a while. To be fair, I've had these papers sitting on my desk for a long while already, so what is another month or two?For the, probably, 2 of you in here who have completed all 1000, what did you do with them afterwards? They take up a lot more space than I expected, so I don't think I'm going to keep them with me. I plan on keeping the 1000th, but I still think I'm just going to but them all on a bonfire once I finish. Feels a lot more symbolic than just throwing them out anyways
billions must crane
>>619900870/1000Honestly, I'm feeling pretty lost with these right now. I was kinda bouncing around with what exactly my wish would be, but one of them always at the back of my mind was wishing for peace for my Mother. She had a great deal of mental and physical ailments that appeared in the past couple years and they were ones with no definite solution in sight. Signs all pointed towards things getting better recently, but she ended up taking her own life in early April. She's no longer in pain, so I had it granted in some manner, but I really didn't want it to be like this. I never even got the chance to tell her about these, since the plan was to show here once I finished all 1000. I'll still see them through, but folding these are definitely not a process that brings me joy anymore.
>>620630Sorry to hear that, been on this board for year and always did papercraft more then oragami, I dealt with a similar situation so I just ordered 1000sheets of paper and I will be joining your journey, I believe in you anon and don’t be afraid to take breaks and meditate or pray or something.
>>620630Sorry anon :/ I think it’s a moving gesture regardless. Hope things get better for you.
