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?
Never seen an origami puppet before. Looks difficult
>>574188Very cool! I wonder if you could make a mouth in a similar way, then you could add some arms and you have an entire paper presenter.
What gets me is that this almost looks animated. The printing and cutting is so well done it's jarring.>>574192I've seen a few in a top shop before. They can be really well constructed like this, but beyond they're often very Noddyish and only made to only appeal to small children. So things like this remind me that there is creative freedom beyond that. Probably are difficult to make though.>>574197That would sure be sophisticated, some skill to operate too. Though eyes alone communicate a vast amount visually, which is why this puppet is so effective - could be just that simple.
Made something very crude, but this is the way...useful linkshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NiU6l1u8dchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyKUw2FJJr4
>>574349Fantastic effort! Ya actually got far enough to figure out the puppet engineering, which is pretty good alone. I have pics myself I want to share, I actually acquired a similar model to this from the creator, and I'm going to assemble it soon. Will post them when I can.
>>574376Who's the creator?
you can buy the schematic for one https://www.cermrnl.com/product-page/nurse-01-ver-4
Very cute, cool find!
>>574349>>574376>>574379Alright this was the pic I was going to share. Cute isn't it? A similar model from the author.>Who's the creator?I think they go by the name 'wasu'? They own the twitter account.The model of pic related as it happens, can be acquired through link this anon shared >>574395All I've done so far was cut out and prepare the fundamental paper components, that was dead simple. The mechanical bits however I will leaving for another day; having skimmed from the instructions for it I think it'll require a fair bit more careful and concerted effort.What continues to be a mystery, and this still isn't clear because this doesn't seem to be a feature of publicly available model, is how she winks...
>>574407Just bought the green one, will post results here, you got any recommendations for aluminum wire on amazon?
>>574412Aluminium wires... I haven't assessed the feasibility of doing this yet, but maybe uncoiling and reshaping few paperclips might be enough? Otherwise I'd consider salvaging them from somewhere else before outright buying a roll of it.
>>574419Paper clips aint gonna cut it for those dimensions
>>574433Ah >_>Okay. 1mm gauge roll of aluminium should do then. Whatever is cheapest for you as far as total price is concerned, it's only important that the gauge is correct cause the 1.5mm slot will be tight to work in.
Nice, please share instruction to make
>>574441Nice!!!
>>574412Please share the diagram, scan it?Any instruction come with it?If buy from the author, how long it take to ship and reach you. Worth the price?
Going to make this!!!!Notice the leg is not moving, is it fixed to the desk??
>>575251I commissioned them for one. The feet are mounted by a metal paperclip, and is taped to the table surface to stand on
>>574188Without the big Ear will be much nicer, Big ear to cover the hand?
>>574188im finna nut nigga oowee look at dis bitch damn she fine as fuck
Can someone upload the manual please?
>>575398 this i want to make my nieces cute anime cat girls, and uncomfortably drink with my aunts, when they question me how i know this pls ty
>>575398any manual or make instruction?
>>574188I want to fuck that piece of paper
>>575459you're asking for a papercut
>>575103I just bought one of these today after seeing a tweet of one of them. The distribution is digital, so you get the instructions instantly. You will need to print the actual thing onto cardboard yourself though.
>>575398I would upload my copy but I would feel kinda bad about it. dont you have 15 bucks? the only reason I would upload it is if theres a new version of the schematic or the artist took down the site.
>>576244https://www.cermrnl.com/product-page/chiyuthe price is $ 23.55 USD. It is expensive. If you can only share the user manual will be fine.
POST THE FUCKING INSTRUCTIONS WE ARE IN 4CHAN GODDAMNIT, WHAT HAPPENED
>>576360You are very rude !!
>>575398I would upload my copy but I would feel kinda bad about it. dont you have 15 bucks? the only reason I would upload it is if theres a new version of the schematic or the artist took down the site.>>576271 >>576360the problem is that the instructions have the layout
Finally got round to getting some wire! Will continue where I left of eventually... it's actually silver coater wire for jewellery making so I think I overpaid XD but it's 1mm and bendy/strong so should do the trick.
chiyu v4: my.namejeff.com/SNFnn62f.zip
>>576360you've mistaken /po/ for /b/. Here at /po/ we like to support our artists. It's not that hard to navigate the shop. The instructions are in English and very easy to follow.Make sure you preview what the puppet does before purchase:https://www.cermrnl.com/gallery-1
>>576376Yer link borkenhttps://my.namejeff.com/NTKgHK5m.rar
>>576376Page not foundPlease upload again. Thanks!
>>576500change >>576410to.zip
>>576505Thanks Anon!!!
I really want the chiyu V4 one, and the link didnt work so does anyone have it that can share it?
https://www.cermrnl.com/product-page/telu-ver-4How are they out of stock? If so I am gonna have to start uploading mine for archival purposes. Can anyone confirm why they are sold out?
>>577757see pic
>>577761Is... is this our fault?
>>577765even if it is, it's very hard to want to support artists if they decide to stop taking people's money because someone uploaded their stuff
>>577800>Lets punish people buy not letting people buy it from us and instead leave them with the only option to download it for free instead
>>577807Japanese in particular seem to be prone to thos mentality
>>577824I think in the cases like these, it's an attempt at shaming/alienating the uploader and/or their enablers. Doesn't work outside of Japan, though.
>>577836Please upload any model pattern you have, since the author not going to sell them anytime soon
Step one: Get the template.Step two: Pay someone on fiverr to modify the template into any character you want.Step three: Share and share alike.
>>577868will try this, will post results in some days
>>577868>Pay someone on fiverr to modify the templateFucking >>>/diy/ you lazy faggot
>>578315>Calling someone lazy because they didn't spend their life learning art.Did you even think before you typed that?
>>574188>https://twitter.com/Cermrnl/status/1137722958577713152>Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!
>>578329Well, at least the video is preserved (the file attached in the OP of this thread).
>>578329>>578344Here you go.https://www.cermrnl.com/gallery-1
>>578345Awesome, thank you... there's so many other videos too, woah, so that's a nice surprise.
this is so cute, oh my gawsh
I did some modifications for aesthetic purposes
>>578422Alas, someone here finally got round to creating it, well done! Especially with going the extra mile with those additions, really like it. Did you just modify the textures in the instructions before printing, or did you physically paste over those textures?
>>578432No, i just edited the fileI reckon we can just brute force every design with a bit of photoshop work
>>578422You gotta link the files bro, since they are modified that should not be a problem
>>578514>https://my.namejeff.com/NTKgHK5m.zipyou can still use this and do some modifications yourself.
>>578422can you make it move?
I really like the puppet's design; I don't usually see kinetic /po/ with this level of flexibility. Support these artists, this kind of work probably doesn't pay well.
>>574188>making me want to fuck a piece of papergod damn it
>>579776the papercuts aren't worth it anon
just finished mine took me two days to get it all done it was a bit of a pain but worth i kinda went a bit all out but it was worth it
>>579889looks like the image doesn't want to work properly
>>579805Then you are weak
>>579889>>579890Absolutely lovely, well done. Are all the mechanical bits are in and working?
>>579897they work its just hard to control them ( for me at lest )
U+0702>>574188Very good anymore like this?
Didnt someone upload the blue one?
Imgur seems to like it too, here's a boatload of designs.https://imgur.com/gallery/JrUZMot
yeah these are great
>>577849bump
*coughs*
>>580432
>>580438Are you my mummy?
>>579889great job anon!
>>580450 lolgo to your room! good thing that worked. those would have been terrible last words.
>>574188>>579889>>579890good job guys.
>>580509You are not nice, have some flu.
>>574197Incidentally, the last one they have posted as of now does exactly that.https://www.cermrnl.com/gallery-1?pgid=jqtag79j-8790c415-b165-456e-aa83-23910382a22b
>>578515heh
>>574188bumpo
https://twitter.com/shin___geki/status/1269485222116028417this.. counts, doesn't it?
>>579399Yeshttps://youtu.be/NhShygIPAeI
Does anyone have a picture of the back or the sides? I want to lean about the mechanics but can’t buy one yet
>>583824get it from here and build ithttps://my.namejeff.com/NTKgHK5m.zip
>>574188Yes! I actually made some of these for a colleague project, It was supposed a surprise box, you open it and they danceMy teacher loved itSadly it broke because it was just lying around and my cat slept on top of it, I don't think I could find the video, sorry man
>>583868Damn, looks so hard to make. BUT seeing it in action is quite worth it I guess, too bad I get bored with stuff after 5 min of this.
>>574188I remember seeing this artist paper puppets long time ago on twitter, I really like them :) they are so cute
Im gonna try to do one, they look nice, maybe I wil try to do some editing and do my own designs to
https://my.namejeff.com/NTKgHK5m.zipI edited the template, and this is what it will look like when I finish it!
>>584560Good job paper-pal it looks good.Post a pic of it finished if you manage
Can somebody post the Chiyu V4 one?
>>585163the link still works, just rename .rar to .zip on the second link to it in the threadi'm surprised that none of the other ones have been posted here outside of that one that I bought and uploaded myself all that way back...Speaking of which, I never can seem to find the right balance between wire strength/weight and paper thickness, so my versions of it are incredibly fragile or too stiff.
>>586017I really can't support thieft like that, especially since they are so cheap to buy, it's really sad. But on a side not regarding thickness and such, did you go to his/her page and clicked around to see if there is any tutorial of such what paper to use etc.? I am sure that there is at least something written on there on how to help yourself, so maybe just go through there and find what paper to use.
>>586018Yeah, the docs tell which paper is the best, but it's specific JP-only brands and it's hard to import in my country due to rona lockdowns
>>586019Ohh, yeah, I think each continent has it's own measuring levels of paper, at least I know that ?Muricans have a completely shit system for paper as well, not only for normal units. Maybe copare the paper in pictures you find online and with the grams it has with the paper you got around you so you can copare it like that. Japan still has imports and exports banned to a degree, since May I think or more, so you won't get anything soon I can tell you. So best to try to find a similar thing where you live.
>>576376Thanks to you, i have recreated others with the same mechanism
>>586833
>>575460a small price to pay
Anyone does have a modified version of Kuma ver.01? I'm looking forward to learning about how to make the rest of the body joints :b
>>574349looks pretty cool
>>574349Nice Anon
>>586282Can't wait to see how it looks like
>>574188unbelievable!
>>574188Furry girl thread up for nearly 600 days, excellent
Can anyone post the instructions please
>>576376Heh, i decided to try and change various letters and numbers in case if anon was typing it manually and or on a phone and made a mistake. After few tests finally got the archive. Change f with F. Quite useful for reverse engineering, because unlike >>576410It got more complex limbs and more moving parts, catgirl herself is cute and this model is "out of stock" on the site
And as extra to the previous post (again, the proper Chiyu v4 link is https://my.namejeff.com/SNFnn62F.zip and it still works), while searching for more lost models and templates online I stumbled across this: https://twitter.com/mikuexpo/status/1126794910986788866A Wasu's paper doll that was made for Miku expo of 2019 (along with a lot of cute artworks of all vocaloids for merch, cute stuff), was sold only there, physically and never reappeared in shops. The only images of this model online are those in tweet, one photo from someone's report about the event and one drawing depicting how finished girl would look:https://twitter.com/mikuexpo/status/1111501315098578944So of course I had to preserve it. Had to ask for help in recreating but the end result looks quite cute
I couldn't exactly figure out the mechanism, as in body wiring is clearly the same as for other already posted here girls, intended to move both body and head separately, but the hand is seemingly on it's own (and no, judging by that other photo from report that's all the bodyparts of her. No extra paper parts, only wires). Tried various wire placements to make it work with one hand, gave up and moved it away to be moved with second hand. Sorry for jarring movements, I had too thick wire on hands for body. If someone will manage to make mechanism better, be my guest and sharehttps://files.catbox.moe/2u6lu6.png - Template made based on a photohttps://files.catbox.moe/elfclz.png - Recreation by a friend with colors of the drawingWould love to see it in their shop so more people could have the authentic model but alas, seems like it never appeared there and never willP.S. that Miku is designed to be printed on A5 paper if you want her be same size as others, although the report photo had A4 sized sheet in it, probably to make it easier for guests to cut her out
https://my.namejeff.com/SNFnn62F.zipgives me "server not found"Can anybody reupload to another site?
>>590579Huh, seems like whole site is down. Let's hope that temporarily. I've reuploaded it:https://files.catbox.moe/r1lkmy.zip (Chiyu v4)And that one >>576410 toohttps://files.catbox.moe/zhcir2.zip (which is Telu, old version)
Does anyone know how to move the other limbs, different from the already shown patterns? I'm not interested in their patterns but I'd really appreciate if someone can help me figure it out how it works, cuz I want to do it in my style and put the patterns free for use xD. I saw they make a wire based movement but I don't have any idea of how to apply this to different joints
>>590650moving paper armatures in general is honestly rather limited compared to other types of armatures. The most you can do is move a few pieces around some pivot points. Do you have any specific motions / examples you want to figure out?
