Scott Pilgrim Papercraft!

So I made some papercraft characters from the Scott Pilgrim comics! I wanted to make the whole cast but unfortunately, my printer is busted. It smashes the  paper it wants to print out! That is not good for getting papercraft blueprints.Here are the tools needed for papercraft.

The tools.


1) Self healing board.
2) Papercraft model/blueprint.
3) Cardstock paper. Regular paper will not be strong enough.
4) Pair of sharp scissors.
5) I use an x-acto knife for the detailed parts when scissors just won't cut it.
6) A ruler for lining up cuts with x-acto knife and for scoring the paper at times. I use a clear one so I can see.
7) Glue. I use Elmer's glue stick. You want something that dries clear.

Once I get a new printer there will be more papercrafts that I can do. I have quite a few lined up!

Hobby # 2: Papercraft

What is papercraft? It's models constructed from sheets of heavy paper,paperboard or card stock. I am using card stock for my papercraft models.

I have been interested in papercraft for a while now and just recently have had the time to get some tools and start. My first attempt was a character from the cartoon network show called Adventure Time.

This is Beemo. He is a video game console on the show. He is a simple model that I made to practice on. I hope to be able to make more intricate models in the future
