«««««« HOW DOES IT WORK? »»»»»»
► Once
purchased, download the ZIP file with the pattern (PDF files to be printed with
A4 or A3 sheets – Letter or Tabloid in the States) & the complete
instructions in English to make the sculpture.
►
Print the template (choose the sheet format which is more convenient for you,
the size of the sculpture is the same with A3 or A4 paper). The paper must be
thick (200 / 300 GSM / grams per square meters). The one I use is 250 GSM &
it is perfect for that kind of sculpture. You can print at home if you have a
printer or, easier, go to the nearest Print shop, you could buy the paper &
print there.
►
You have the printed pattern! Now just check you have the following tools: a
pair of scissors, a ruler, white paper glue and a tool to fold the paper (could
be a scoring tool / cutter pencil or even a small knife). You are ready to
begin!
► Now
just follow the instructions: cut the parts, fold & glue them. It is easy,
all the parts of the pattern are identified with edge number guide for easy
assembly (to assemble the papercraft model just match the numbers on the edges
with the corresponding number & glue the edges together).
► Once
finished, you can personalize the sculpture according to your taste. The
customization options are infinite! You can color each face with felt-tip pens
to make it multi-colors (I did it for several models). Or, you can paint it to
make it stronger & easier to be cleaned. With an oil paint or even spray
paint, it will look like laminated & your friends won’t believe you made it
with paper!
