What next? [papercraft]

Alecsander's picture
Since it is running into the end of the semester and hitting summer I am making plans for summer projects. I usually paper craft in the summer months.

Last year I asked the Solian Community to pick out my projects and they assigned me to a bunch of different pokemon and an assortment of anime characters.

So this summer I decided I'd ask TEF what you'd like to see me make.


I'll try to fulfill as many requests as I can, but for obvious reasons not all could be done in a reasonable amount of time if there are not already existing 3-d models of that item.

For example,

I could easily do a reindeer/elk.

I could not easily do YOUR TEF deer because it would mean 2-5 months of work building a model from scratch and I just don't want to put that much effort into it.

So Feel free to name anything you would like to see.

If you need some ideas or categories:
Anime characters
Animals
Pokemon
Castles
landmarks
vehicles
things from video games
cultural items
etc.

For sure one of my projects is going to be the bust (chest and up) of a traiditional maiko. Smiling

Requests so far
- Hummingbird
- Some sort of TEF mask. Real deer or Magpie
- Ibis (handpaint)
- Rabbit
-Houndour
-another bird
-cat
-toucan
-fox
?.Maiko bust

traiditional maiko

traiditional maiko <- THAT sounds amazing, I'm not sure I can come up with anything better at the moment *ponders*

I do love magpies however, but I think any sort of bird would be amazing to see Smiling

Any particular type of bird?

Any particular type of bird? I don't believe I know a model close to a magpie except for the raven god from World of war craft.

As for other birds:
I could do tropical (toucan, peacock, parrot, hummingbird etc.)
Birds of prey (falcon, owls, eagles etc.)
house pet birds (like a parakeet or a budgie etc.)
or north American birds like herons, cranes, swans etc.

A hummingbird would be

A hummingbird would be adorable, and I'm sure the more colorful ones would be very nice to work with, of course it's your call! xD

I can try. I've tried to do

I can try. I've tried to do one in the past and it ended miserably with paper cut face. Its amazingly hard to convince the paper to bend into a 'snout' shape.

I can do beaks like no body's business, but snouts are hard.

You like to do birds huh?

You like to do birds huh? Because I would go nuts if you did a Hoopoe or a Scarlet Ibis. (The beak would be really hard though wouldn't it?)

I'm a bird fanatic. d:

Would you settle for a houndour?

The houndoom is still being 3-d modeled and is not ready for building yet. x) I have no idea when the modeler is releasing it.

Ooo, sounds intresting, the models I saw before were wonderful and can´t wait to see more! <3
For ideas... hmm... You said you could do a reindeer/deer, how about simple TEF-deer (Nameless) or a fawn? Ooo, or a skull would look awesome too if it´s possible to do.
You seemed to be awesome with birds, so more of them would also be a good idea.

I'm great for random ideas if you need them.

As for fulfilling my requests...

Well, I'd rather give you and others the chance before I pipe up very much.

I doubt you'll need me. <3
