is it absolutely necessary to use cardstock? just wonderin cause i dont want to spend more money than i have to, to buy the cardstock. also can u tell me what glue you use/ and or what would work?
No, it’s not absolutely necessary to use cardstock. ;o)
People like using cardstock because it is stronger than regular printer paper, and the King of Red Lions is quite a big model with a lot of “hollow space” in the hull, so maybe you can try making the parts inside the hull (parts 66-70) out of cardboard for extra strength?
For this particular model, the mast has to be very strong because the sail is so heavy, so a lot of people (even those that use cardstock ;o) reinforce the mast inside with anything from chopsticks to tightly rolled up paper.
As for glue, I use a brand called “Tesa All-purpose Glue”, but everybody uses what they have handy of course. A lot of people use white PVA glue (like Elmer’s brand in the USA, or Aleene’s Tacky glue) and others use wood glue, which also works fine.
Have fun building!
Ok. Thanks for the tips.
This is super, just what i needed, but the problem is, i cannot concentrate to do this because of my ADHD :( wish someone would make this for me, anyone interested :P
hey, ill realy apreciate if you put that papercraft in a PDO file, its a better guide, or plz fix the instructions
I’m sorry, but because I always do a lot of work after unfolding them, I never release my paper models as Pepakura *.pdo files…
So I’m afraid you will have to do with the instructions and extra help that are already there. A tip I always give is to fold/pre-shape the parts you are having trouble with the way you think they should be put together, and then check if they fit to the other parts that way, but without glueing them together yet!
That way, if it doesn’t fit the way you thought, you can fold the part a different way. Of course to be able to fold the parts correctly, it is important to check on the version with lines, if you scored all the fold lines the right way! ;o)
And when it is really becoming too difficult, don’t try to force yourself to finish it quickly so you can be done with it and start a new project; you really need to take your time.
In those cases, it’s often better to take a break and save the parts that you already assembled and the rest of the sheets in a safe place, until you have more time again and feel like you have a better idea on how to build the parts that were troubling you first. ;o)
I’m sorry I can’t be of more help, but I hope you can use the tips!
i can’t access the instructions
please upload again or send to my email
I think my internet provider where I host my files is having some technical difficulties, so please try again in a couple of hours.
Try clearing your cache and your temporary internet files, restart your browser and then try downloading/opening the PDF again.
I’m sure they will fix it soon, but if it doesn’t work, please send me an e-mail at ninjatoes@home.nl
thanks it works now
OK, I do have pepakura viewer, so I’ll try that. Thanks
If you ever have spare time, do you think you could build that Toon Link and make instructions for it. You don’t have to, but I would really appreciate it.
You mean the one from Haywan? I must admit that I focus more on making my own models now, and only make fairly quick and easy things from other people sometimes.
Never say never, but chances are slim, sorry… If you have the free Pepakura Viewer (link) you can try to figure out by looking at the 3D rendering and comparing it with the unfolded part how you should fold the parts as sort of instructions. ;o)
Good luck and have fun!
That Link looks ok, but just doesn’t fit to well with your KoRL. I think you could do a lot better! I also saw the new Toon Link model on nintendopapercraft but it was about 40cm tall! Oh well.
And I don’t think you’d be able to scale that one down to match my KoRL… ;o)
just browsing through your papercrafts, saw this, and said to myself “hey, ninjatoes might be able to make a wind waker link to ride in the king of red lions, and it could be sort of round like the final fantasy models. It would be the best papercraft he’s ever made!” Yes, I am a huge fan of WW Kid Link!
Yeah, I want to make many more WW models, but I don’t know yet whether I’ll make them to scale with my KoRL model. ;o)
Chokipeta once made a WW Link for the japanese Dengeki Cube magazine, which apparantly is just about same scale as my KoRL: Chokipeta gallery
The style is different, but it still looks great!
I have used chokipeta ww link to keep it, in addition, after it’s more cool
Print the sail on regular paper instead of thicker cardstock and/or reinforce the mast with chopsticks, cardboard, a couple of rolled up sheets of paper or whatever else you might have handy.
You can also tie a piece of string from the top of the mast to King’s neck to keep the mast upright.
Have fun building!
