>>
>>619810
Real answer, because if you're already making the papercraft the 3d printing part is unnecessary.
>>
>>619936
My thread died and dissapeared some time ago but I was having some serious issues with large paper dolls be it due to insensitive handling errors or buckling under its own weight. I tried several methods to remedy such problems but they come with their own set of problems which i can elaborate on later.
That being saíd, having 3d printed structure (of precise measurements) to suport my models from inside could be costly but potentially an enhancement over internal supports/rough skeleton with stuffing/filling, especially as I want to make them poseable eventually.

minus the fold lines, is the pdo you have editable?

Good job for a first. I’m guessing first draft only because of the black and white and lines.
But yeah, papercraft is very time consuming. The results can be amazing though, so keep at it.

It could probably become an ambiance light if you insert a dim lighbulb.

yeah, it isn't as good as i want it to be though.
i need to take my time with it.
i'll try the light too, probably an led or something like that (maybe a bigger model too)

Behold, anons.
Some esoteric Russian origami and papercrafts.
Dated 2005, but I believe this is the fourth edition. Original is from 90s.
This particular one is for children, but I know I have a more "advanced" one laying around somewhere.

We tend to use paper in a very functional manner in Russia, so it's interesting to see some of the more "practical" designs (from napkin-folding patterns to making a paper cup for sunflower seeds / measuring grains), to making drinking vessels.

Here is one of the designs for a Christmas ornament - "fae".

Lots of "playable" papercrafts too - sailboats you can blow on to hover over your table, floating boats to send in streams, and many flying toys.

Paper-folding in Russia has a rich history stemming from the use of birch bark folded into various containers and cooking implements.
Because of the physics of boiling water absorbing heat, these were used for cooking soups and sterilizing stream water without any damage to the birch bark.

this so much.

>>614560
I didn't have good experience with this book. The theory is nice, teaching techniques and essential ideas in progressively more complex models.
But a lot of the models, in my experience, even simpler ones can be too disappointing/challenging. I mean this book is supposedly written for beginners.
I just checked gilad page, reviewing from memory:
1. squirrel - the example photo and the one in diagram is different, so your result won't look the same as Jun Maekawa's
2. box - "locks" and bullshit don't work. I honestly have no idea how to make this properly without glue
3. spiral shell - good luck making everything aligned
4. giraffe - I really dislike this one, dunno, the fact you fold the back and hide it behind really annoys me
5. helmet - good luck making this stand, even gilad couldn't do it, fuck this model seriously
I think I dropped the book a few models after this. I kept hitting problems that I blame on subpar models.
I decided just to fold stuffs I find interesting from /po/. Not following Maekawa's curriculum. I'm much happier now. I just don't think the book is good recommendation for beginners.
-----
John Montroll's Teach Yourself Origami's first half has all of the essential models they used to teach in schools.

Try to follow this plan to become a successful folder . 1 .Sonobe .2 . Kusudama .3 tessellation .These are good because very repetitive folds practice makes foolproof and you can use glue for assembly
Then 4 .Beetle . 5 .Fish . 6 .Spider .7 scorpion
8 . Butterfly two colours .
9 .Bee two colours
Then try some simple characters .
After that you should be familiar enough with diagrams and precrease to attempt more complex models such as birds dragons .

Start with Alex Jones the Great Reset. You will be doing a lot of folding for the NWO.

Has anyone used just paper to make terrain pieces for their wargame, sort of like pop up sets like pic related?
>>
I have, a long long time ago during my youth when 3D printers were science fiction and I had even less money than I do now. I remeber making foldable terrain for easy storage. Worked pretty good. The easiest is to make box terrain tho.
>>
>>616194
Yes.

Paper figurines are also a thing.
>>
>>616194
Yes, there are a handful of people publishing war game and rpg papercraft. It's a shame it's not more popular as it has some advantages over 3d printing.
