Attention all fans of the Pokemon anime! Now you can create Pokemon papercraft (Paper models) for free (Barring the cost of some low priced art suppplies)! Just download for free (Stored on MediaFire or 4Shared), patterns used to create the Pokemon papercraft (Already colored and illustrated with details), print them out (On the shiny side of some poster board paper using an ink jet printer - Do not use a laser printer as those do not work well with thick paper like poster board. Also, you might damage your laser printer's paper feeder! See the fourth and fifth posts in ->
https://arstechnica.com/civis/viewto...?f=11&t=100001), carefully cut them out (With a pair of scissors) and then assemble the papercraft (With all purpose glue, if required) to form any one of many Pokemon papercraft created by a Pokemon collector, hobbyist and artist known as "Javierini" at Jav-Papercraft ->
https://jav-papercraft.blogspot.com/. You can see his collection of Pokemon action figures, PVC figurines, card decks, plushies, papercraft, etc. at ->

Some of the featured Pokemon that you can make include (Note: Download link to each respective RAR archive is on each of the following pages under each featured Pokemon papercraft's picture or use the direct download link listed below. There are no assembly instructions included. All of the parts in each pattern are illustrated with fold lines [Dashed lines] which show where to fold each part [Prior to gluing, if necessary].
Photos of assembled papercraft can be seen here down at the bottom):
Note: I will try to update this thread in the future with more paper model patterns for the other characters as soon as I can find them. Any feedback (Questions, suggestions, comments [eg. - Let me know about any dead download links so that I can try to find alternate sources for download links] or even a "Thanks for sharing!" post) in this thread and/or in the other papercraft threads would be appreciated and possibly helpful in determining which characters may appear sooner than others in subsequent posts (Let me know here which characters you would like to see posted sooner and I'll see what I can do - No guarantees or promises though as I have to try to find them beforehand. Remember, feedback as well as occasional updates help to keep threads alive!

Gen8) to see all of the patterns for the papercraft that are available for free download (Note: Not all Pokemon have been implemented yet). With the addition of a little bit of thread and scotch tape, the intricate, colorful papercraft would make great decorations for any Pokefan's birthday party, ornaments for any Pokefan's Christmas Tree, Hanukkah
Tchotchkesfor any fans of MLP, Kwanzaa
Zawadi (Artistic gifts) given to MLP fans or they can be displayed as works for art on any Pokefan's hobby shelf or tabletop! Enjoy!
Extra!: Javierini's site doesn't explicitly explain how the patterns for the Pokemon papercraft were created but mentions and includes a link to an application called Pepakura Designer 4, all the way down at the site's bottom. After following that link and browsing the Pepakura site, it can be found that the Pokemon papercraft were probably created by first scanning (With an HD web cam) a Pokemon action figure into a 3D CG application like Metasequoia (Free version with limited functionality available for download at ->
http://www.metaseq.net/en/) to create a 3D model. Next, the 3D model is saved into a
.mqo file (If Metasequoia is used) and the file's contents are imported into Pepakura Designer (Free to download and use but need to buy keycode to save results into
.pdo files and export patterns to graphics files [.bmp, .jpg, etc] ->
https://tamasoft.co.jp/pepakura-en/index.html). Afterwards (Based on instructions found at the Pepakura site ->
https://tamasoft.co.jp/pepakura-en/h.../overview.html), the imported 3D model is unfolded (Flattened) by the application to create a set of 2D patterns which can then be edited (Refined) where necessary and saved into graphics files. Finally, the graphics files can be printed out (The graphics files that hold all of the required patterns to make a given Pokemon papercraft have been neatly bundled together into a .pdf file(s) [More than one .pdf if there is one or more "Variant(S)" of a given Pokemon available] by Javierini), on poster board paper, carefully cut out and then assembled (Glued with general purpose glue) together. Enjoy~!
