>>598213>but that program removes itIf you think that program removes the password, then do it, and repost the file without the password.

>>598997The English version?
>>598213Apparently the program doesn't remove the password because you haven't done it yet. See, you don't know everything.

Thought this was awesome https://twitter.com/Cermrnl/status/1137722958577713152Anyone tried doing paper puppets like this? Where would one get started designing something like this?
>>591845Idk if ur still here. But I wanted to know how they make each eye wink individually
>>598024I havent bought one of those types, but from the one I have that blinks with both, I believe that the difference is that the eyelid layer (basically a semcircle) is split in two and has two different handles on the back
>>594023man, god bless you, this looks cool to try
Author stopped selling patterns because one of them was shared. I'll never get this "One file was shared, so i'll stop selling all files, so people who wanted to buy them cannot do this anymore" mentality...
>>577757Hi man! Which ones do you have?
its that time of year again,since october and by association halloween is right around the corner let's post halloween themed papercraft, origami and costume ideas/tips so we can help our fellow /po/lite friends please no arguing this board is too slow for that shitill start with this wolf head i found in my folder and a question on whether i should do something like this or a helmet from skyrim
>>545554I've been lurking this thread for the past few months and now it's Halloween time! I'm definitely going to make one of these masks, but how would one reinforce it? Do you guys use cardboard or cardstock and trace the patterns?
/b/ here. Never seen a 5 year old thread pretty cool. Like the paper! This has gotta be some kind of record right? What’s the oldest active thread? Cheers and happy Halloween /po/lite people.Captcha WAHVY

>>599482That's too bad for you, then.
Is papercraft as a hobby dying?
>>591172Do not base the hobby off the patronage of /po/. It has always been slow, and it will continue to be slow until the heat death of the universe.
It's been on a steady decline since 2013, look at Google search results for the word "papercraft" over time. I think a big reason for it's decline is the fact that new video game characters are almost impossible to make models of, as they are too detailed and difficult to convert into paper models. Super Smash Bros Brawl and Melee provided hundreds of fantastic models to convert into paper because of their trophies, but we don't have something like that these days.
>>591172I was thinking earlier on that /po/ is the only board not to have become completely fucked up but even then this thread is full of wojacks.
>>598935That's depressing.
>>596681this is a great point
Does anyone have a pdf for this?If not any tips on making it from scratch?Thanks in advance, anon
>>599349Madonna boobs
>>598790>she
finished. But has i was expecting it failed, like this anon say >>599399 the model is really the most important part and since i just picked a random model it obvious have flaws. if someone want to do this use this model of torso >>598928, since doing full body is way harder. Anyway, it was fun to make, thanks for the good thread frens
>>599425It doesn't look that bad, but the model wasn't that great but i can't tell why, maybe should have added more sides to fold?
>>599436exactly, more fonds on big parts like torso and breast would be good. also i should have used a better type of paper instead of a4, but they are expensive and this was a bit project
Anyone got that old crappy template of (I think) Pleinair from Disgaea? Pretty sure it was mostly simple shapes and said "for /po/" in the corner. I'm trying out a workflow for un-unfolding papercraft where no model or pdo is available and it would make a perfect test case.

I'm getting into paper mache, is this the place to post about it? I would assume so but only saw origami.Anyone into this and would like to share their creation/share tips/tricks
Yes, this would be the place to post about it. I personally encourage it, as it is a departure from the usual. I myself do not do paper mache and think you may not find many that do, but hope you do.
>>599110Ah good, I'll be sure to post some updates on my first project.
>>599107also interested, not really sure where to go either. i have a project idea but ive never done it before so still feeling everything out
>>599111I ended up going with horns, seemed easy enough. Just concentric circles. I used cardboard for the base, taped it all together then did 2 parts glue 1 part water and just kind of painted over the available outside and inside. The last few took more care because of the curve. It held together well the next day when I removed it to add another coat to keep shape.
>>599429And this is from today, same mixture on both sides of one of those grocery store coupon newspapers I keep getting in the mail. I read up on it and tearing is better for making sure it all connects better so I also tore off any edges before getting my strips. The plan next time is to make some "paper clay" which is broken down toilet paper and glue to get a sort of smoother finish and more accurately mold my shape.

>>597061 How did Mr J.Garper Pass ?.I mean I know you can die of laziness and poisoning but God striking you down for book piracy seems a little out of character. .He actually did a lot more for the genre as I actually started buying e books to make my self feel better than the hoarders on there .I wish there was more to the story
>>599421Nope, no more.
