January 4th 2025 I had a big stroke…
I lived, but have to go through a long recovery
to see what I can still do in the future…

Hopefully it will be a lot…! 👍 Always keep having fun papercrafting!

Which papercraft model would you like to build?

 

What’s papercraft?” you ask?

Well, that’s when (in this case ;o)  you download and print a page of 2D parts (preferably on some thicker paper) cut them out and fold them, and then glue them together to make your very own 3D paper model of your favourite game/anime/movie character/whatever you like!

There are a lot of websites where you can find free templates to download and build, including my own one of course which you’re visiting right now. ;o)

Currently, I have two-hundred-and-thirty-seven (237!) free papercraft models in stock for you! :o) Select one of the Download categories above or in the Site map to the right to find the model you wish to download (if it’s not in one of the obvious categories, try the miscellaneous section).

If you want to contact me, or send me a picture of your finished paper model for the hall of fame, you can send me an e-mail at ninjatoes@home.nl and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Have fun building!

  1. hey ninjatoes i come to your site more than 5 times a day and i was wondering if you would like to have me be your partner or some one you can work with it would mean a lot to me.

    1. No, sorry… For me all the fun of making paper models lies in the fact that I can do absolutely anything I want exactly how I want it, and no matter how you look at it, that would change if I had to deal with somebody else…

  2. I see your have most of the ships from Star Trek… what you should really think about doing is one of Capt. Picard! That would be beyond epic! :D

    1. Well most of the most famous ones, there are *lots* of other less famous starships of course! ;o)

      I was thinking about making Picard in his captain’s chair but as with so many ideas, I just haven’t gotten around to actually making it yet… ;o)

  3. I know that you dont like to do many zelda models, but what about a zelda diorama. I also wondered how do you make a model, i have many papercraft ideas i just dont know where to start.

    1. Well I really like to do tons of Zelda models, just not all at once…! ;o) A diorama with a two or more characters and perhaps some sort of backdrop sounds really nice, but means twice or even thrice the work of course!

      So maybe I’ll just make the seperate parts of the diorama as seperate releases, so you can later bring them together as you’d like… ;o)

  4. Hello there Ninjatoes!

    Do you like the Beyond Good and Evil game?

    Because I love to see Jade, the protagonist, made by you.:)

    Just a suggestion.

    1. I know the game, although I never played it myself… I’m flattered that you really want it done specifically by me, I can put it on the to do-list of course (I’m a sucker for action games like these, there are just too many of them to play them all…) but that’s no guarantee I’ll make it anytime soon, sorry…!

      1. Actually, Beyond Good and Evil is a action adventure, just like Zelda.

        I would even say that is very inspired by Zelda, so I think you would like to play.

        It is really a awesome game that just don’t sell very well at the time it was released, just like Okami.

        I really recommend that you play it.:)

        Greetings from Brazil.

        P.S: And sorry for my bad english.

    1. I don’t know if he ever will, but it would have to come a while later because he’s made enough Zelda models for a while (so he says), and as they say all good things in moderation.

    2. Yep, there are so many great models that I’d like to do, from so many different series. And of course it gets boring to make Zelda models all the time, so I often switch between themes.

      Right now I’m working on the Extreme Depth Suit from Tomb Raider Chronicles (link) and it’s still far from finished… ;o)

    1. He says there are only fold lines where they are necessary, and this being a smooth look model the idea is to eliminate fold lines. So chances are, it won’t happen because folding it would make it look slightly worse than curling the paper/cardstock.

    2. Basically, what Truffles said. ;o)

      Instead of scoring and folding the parts, you can just curve most parts. Because you don’t need to fold most of the parts, there are no fold lines on most of the parts. ;o)

    1. That’s hard to say of course, because it’s different for each model, and sometimes I have a lot of spare time, and most of the time I don’t. ;o)

      But I started working ZaL for instance on April 7th according to my weblog, and I released him last weekend, so that’s about two and a half months.

      But I did finish a couple of other paper models in between that I had lying around, so all in all about a month and a half to two months I guess.

      And of course I don’t work on new models 24/7, usually just a couple of hours each day and sometimes just in the weekends. But on average even a simpler model usually takes me at least a couple of weeks of rebuilding the 3D model, test building it and then fixing it, building the final version and making the instructions before I can release it.

    1. It’s not so long anymore before my summer break either, and maybe I’ll pick up FFX again to get in the mood. I don’t know if I’ll make Tidus then, or one of the other characters or fiends though (or if I’ll have gotten a completely different idea by then… ;o)
