Papercraft Cicada

Insect Paper Model
While this papercraft cicada may look like origami at first glance, it is actually a glue-less paper model (i.e. cutting is employed, in addition to folding). What is amazing about this model is its template contains just one piece. This single piece is cut out and then carefully folded to give the result in the photo. The printable template for the model was created by Fumito Nozaki and is available at the website located here. After following the link, click on the blue text under the photo to download the PDF. The template is black and white, so printing on color paper is required for the best results. The cicada in the photo was printed on metallic paper.

Paper Cut-Out Ford Mustang
To help fight boredom during the quarantine, last year Car and Driver magazine released a free paper model of the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. The model is super simple. It has only two parts (one being the rear spoiler!). The printable PDF for the model may be downloaded here. If green is not your cup of tea, there are four other color schemes of the model available. At the time of its release, Ford promoted the 2020 GT500 as being "the most powerful street-legal Ford in history".

Steve Rogers End Game Bastelbogen
I am a long time Captain America fan. My all-time favorite Cap moment out of the MCU movies was in Avengers: End Game when Steve Rogers picks up Thor's hammer in the battle against Thanos. Imagine my delight, then, when I found this End Game Captain America paper model by WR Papercraft! Standing at about 18" (45 cm) tall, the model is fair-sized, which is a good thing as many of the parts are small. The printable template for the model is available for download here. The download includes both PDF and Pepakura PDO files. Build photos are by Woon.

Locomotive Bastelbogen
I am impressed by the shear quantity of the free papercraft available on the JR West website. There are dozens of models of Japanese trains available for download, everything from nineteenth century steam locomotives to modern day "bullet trains". And as if that was not enough, there are also train station paper models and railroad tracks to go with the trains. Pictured is just a sampling of all that is available. It takes some browsing to get to every piece in the collection, but it is well worth the effort. I am not sure of the exact scale of the models, but the railroad cars appear to be about 8" (20 cm) in length.

The first Cadillac Coupe de Ville was produced in 1949. The Coupe de Ville went through several generations of design after that time; the most famous era being the late 1950's, during which the car sported some of the largest "tail fins" ever to grace an America automobile. This 1:24 scale paper model by North07 is of the 1966 design for the Coupe. A Pepakura PDO template and instructions may be found on his website located here.

Vintage Video Game Papercraft
The first arcade I remember frequenting had mostly pinball machines. In amongst the pinball machines were two black and white video games: Asteroids and Space Invaders. These pixelated space invader pop-ups bring back memories of carefree hours spent in that arcade. The template for the pop-up invaders was created by Popupology and may be downloaded for free on their website. The invaders are small enough that six of them may be printed on a single sheet of cardstock. The color of the pop-ups in the photo was achieved by printing on yellow cardstock.

Conway L-16 Bastelbogen
Part of Disney's animated television lineup in the 1990's was a show called TaleSpin. TaleSpin was set in the late 1930's and featured anthropomorphized characters from Disney's 1967 movie, The Jungle Book. The show's plot centers around Baloo the Bear who flies a "Conwing L-16" seaplane named Sea Duck. This paper model of the Sea Duck was created by DeviantART member Strangename19, whose design imagines what the airplane would be like if it were real. A PDF template for the model may be downloaded here. This papercraft is not recommended for beginners as there are no instructions and the parts have no gluing tabs. The design of the Conwing L-16 is thought to be a mashup of two real world aircraft: the Grumman HU-16 Albatross and the Fairchild C-82 Packet.

Korean Video Game Papercraft
Back in 2008 when I first got into papercraft, there was a lot of buzz in papercraft circles about MapleStory papercraft from Korea. MapleStory is a 2D video game, so the fun thing about the papercraft was it allowed you to see how characters from the game might look in 3D. Anyhow, I came across this old MapleStory Mixed Golem paper model recently and it brought back a lot of good memories. The PDF template for the model may be downloaded here. In the video game, this and other types of golems may be found in the Golem Temple which is located in the city of Henesys.

Video Game Weapon Bastelbogen
The first time I remember using a knife in a video game was in Wolfenstein 3D (1992) where a knife is the default weapon if you run out of ammo for your guns. Lots of first-person shooter games include a knife as a melee weapon. Pictured is a 1:1 paper model of the combat knife from Fallout 3 (2008). This model was created by Broken Papercrafts. The Pepakura PDO template for the papercraft may be downloaded here. The style of the Fallout combat knife is reminiscent of a Bowie fighting knife which was designed in the US in the early 19th century.
