Have fun building!

Zora armor Link by Dan Hilse

November 24, 2009

 

This is Dan’s latest build, Zora armor Link from Twilight Princess. He said he took extra care building this one and it really paid off, because in his own words, it looks “really good!”

 

But of course, he had plenty of practice! Printed off and assembled in just two days, Dan’s other models don’t seem to be scared by his new Oogie Boogie (maybe they know it’s just a paper one…?)

 

Speaking of Dan’s other models, this Kurt Zisa really is a great build: it looks wonderful, but that’s not surprising because he had a lot of practice! ;o)

 

Take this Auron for instance: Dan says he had ”a lot of fun building it!” and he’s “really proud of the results!” and really, who wouldn’t be? ;o)

 

And here’s another one for Dan to be proud of: it’s Cloud Strife Kingdom Hearts style! It’s looking at least as good as Auron, maybe it has something to do with the motivation he got from watching his brother play Final Fantasy 7 while he built it? ;o)

 

A break fom building Final Fantasy models, Dan also built not on, not two, but several of my Zelda models! In the picture he sent me, you can recognize young Link, princess Zelda herself, Majora’s Mask and the Clock Town Schnauzer of course.

 

I know you’ve never seen the darker dog, because that’s Dan’s own recolor of the Clock Town Schnauzer to make it look like the common ones found at night at Hyrule Castle in Ocarina of Time!

 

And let’s not forget Homer Simpson as part of Dan’s paper model collection as well!

 

Thank you for building these Ninjatoes’ papercraft models!

Midna by GoGirl786

November 21, 2009

GoGirl786 sent me this picture of the Midna she built back in February already, when she just started papercrafting. I think it looks pretty good, what you? ;o)

GoGirl786 has a YouTube channel with several… crazy vids (I really don’t know how else to describe them… ;o) so be sure to check them out!

Thank you for building a Ninjatoes’ papercraft model!

U.S.S. Defiant NX-74205 by Bones McCoy

November 15, 2009

You may remember I posted Bones’ retexture of the U.S.S. Defiant NX-74205 a little while back? Well, here’s a picture of it, by Bones himself!

And here’s another one, of the bottom this time! You can see the extra details in the textures that Bones added, but because the parts have stayed the same, you can still use Bill Perry’s redraw instructions to build it!

Thank you for building a Ninjatoes’ papercraft model!

Orange Star MD Tank by Ricardo J. Souza

November 9, 2009

 

Ricardo Junglos from Brazil sends in this picture of an Orange Star MD Tank.

 

It’s the first model he built from my site, and although he wouldn’t say it’s perfect, he thinks it’s 90% and he wants to do better next time. But the important thing is that he had fun building it!

 

UPDATE: Ricardo wanted to share his retouched version of this Orange Star MD Tank with you! You can download a ZIP-file with the parts here (938 kB)

 

Thank you for building this Ninjatoes’ papercraft model!

Young Link by Toni Müller

November 7, 2009

 

As you can tell from the background, Toni Müller finished this paper model of young Link just recently! ;o)

 

All in all, it took him about 15 hours to build and although he says there were some parts that confused him a bit, I would never had guessed if he hadn’t told me, because his build looks just great!

 

A little while ago, Toni already built Zora armor Link. Being pulled from your comfy virtual world into the real world sounds exciting for an adventurer like Link, but it does require some adjusting…

 

Here, Toni tries to explain Link that rupees are no good in the real world and that you need coins!

 

Link looks a bit baffled, and although I don’t know the current exchange rate between rupees and Euros, it’s enough to make ZaL’s head explode! (amongst other things…)

 

Thank you for building these Ninjatoes’ papercraft models!

Wolf Link by Aaron Mears

October 24, 2009

 

UPDATE 2: More paper Zelda models from Aaron! This time it’s the King of Red Lions. And Aaron also built Josh Darrah’s Great Sea Base! (picture)

 

UPDATE 3: Aaron promised me he’d send some new pictures, and here they are! The first one is a rebuild of young Link that he did earlier. I guess he just wanted to make it *perfect* (and now he also repainted the sheeth to make it look like the blade of the sword! ;o)

 

UPDATE  4: The second one is Fierce Deity Link. You can see another Fierce Deity Link in super deformed style in the picture, it’s a repaint of ChokiPETA’s Four Swords Link and can be downloaded from here.

 

UPDATE 5: The final one in this batch is my newest model, Zora armor Link. I’m very glad to see that most people find it relatively easy to build, and the results like this one are usually great as well! ;o)

 

UPDATE 6: Two new models by Aaron Mears! The first one is princess Zelda, and the second one is wolf Link, the one you can see in the picture above. Aaron has been working on them off and on all during summer break, and a month into school. So that’s how many Zelda models already? Well, you can see in this groupshot!

 

Aaron sends me a few pictures of the young Link papercraft model he built. The small treasure chest he’s trying to open in this picture, can be found here (but it’s probably just another Small Key again, that you can only use in this dungeon… ;o)

 

Aaron also built the Clock Town Schnauzer model from my website. When Link is transformed into a Deku Scrub, it growls at you and attacks you, but after Link is transformed back to normal, the both of them get along just fine, as you can see in this picture.

 

The last picture shows that when Link is not playing with dogs, he likes to play King Arthur and pull swords out of stones. If you want to try yourself, you can download the template for the Master Sword and pedestal here.

 

UPDATE: I guess Aaron forgot to mention he also built my Epona & Link models! ;o) You can see them here, together with young Link and another Link from a different papercraft creator (which you can download here). If I remember correctly, it was made with Tenkai, the predecessor of Pepakura Designer.

 

And that concludes the random trivia lesson for today. ;o)

 

Thank you for building these Ninjatoes’ papercraft models!

Clocktown Schnauzer by Zach Mears

October 24, 2009

With a brother like Aaron Mears, it’s not hard to imagine how Zach also got hooked on papercraft! ;o)

This time, he’s sending in his own build: no, that’s not some random dog that walked in front of the camera when Zach was trying to take a picture of the car; that’s Zach’s Clocktown Schnauzer!

Although the picture is a bit blurry, you can still see he did a pretty good job! And from the sounds of it, Zach is only just getting started… ;o)

Thank you for downloading and building a Ninjatoes’ papercraft model!

Tomb Raider Extreme Depth Suit by Lauren

October 19, 2009

It was hard to choose which picture I would swap for Lauren’s earlier update, which was Zora armor Link, because it was such a good build…!

Fortunately, the new pictures are just as good! ;o) As you can see in the picture above, Lauren couldn’t find a suited transparant sheet to make the helmet visor for Lara’s Extreme Depth Suit, but the opaque versions looks pretty neat as well!

And Lauren must be a Simpsons fan as well, because look who we have here! ;o) And something totally different, but a great build nonetheless: she also made my new Final Fantasy Moomba doll!

So those were the new pictures Lauren sent me, but the first ones she sent me, were of her Ganondorf model, and it was very good one!

She told me she had a lot of fun building him, but I also think you can also tell by the quality of the build! ;o)

It’ll probably come as no surprise to you that Lauren is pretty creative: if you have time you should check out her Deviantart gallery with lots of nice computer paintings including several from the Legend of Zelda!

I think we got Lauren pretty well hooked on papercraft now, because so shortly after Ganondorf, she also made Epona & Link (see the picture here) in just 2 days, and she’s already planning the next one! ;o)

Update: Lauren revealed to me that Ganondorf and Epona & Link weren’t the first models she made: she also did Fierce Deity Linkyoung princess Zeldayoung Link and Majora’s Mask, Midna and wolf Link, and (surprise! ;o) a non-Zelda model as well, namely, Lara Croft.

Update 2: another non-Zelda model from Lauren, it’s my newest Cloud model. She glued on the legs last so she could work out a good balance, and although she says the hair and fingers gave her some troubles, you wouldn’t say so from just the picture I think, anyway. ;o)

Update 3: I only just uploaded my newest Zora armor Link model two days ago, and Lauren already sent me some new pictures of her completed ZaL! And I know what you’re thingking, but it doesn’t look rushed at all! picture 2 | picture 3

It’s just a another great build!

Thank you for building these Ninjatoes’ papercraft models!

One Piece “Going Merry” by Aya

October 13, 2009

Aya from the Philippines tells me she has become addicted to watching/reading One Piece, and building papercraft models

And now she has combined her addictions!

Aya made this “Going Merry” within a week, but she has also done some other ones which you can see in her DeviantArt gallery: solitary-Aya

Thank you for downloading and building a Ninjatoes’ papercraft model!
