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!

Hi, very nice models, working on young link currently.
would love a (any) goron model, but thats not needed currently. i just started and have plenty of models printed and to be crafted for now =)
what i would LOVE if your pdfs would have Color overflowing on the gluing tabs.
that would increase the quality, at least for beginers like myself.
but all in all, your works are great.
i started my first builds using pepakura and i feared that your models would be much harder cause of the lack of 3d display of individual parts. but it works realy good.
the alternating gluingtab layout is REALY great. witth them you can always see where to glue tabs even on dificult parts.
sorry for the near wall of text XD
Hi there, I’m happy to hear you like my paper models so much! ;o)
Making paper models, deciding how to unfold them, where the glueing tabs are and so on are are really personal preferences I think: everybody does it the way they like best and I don’t think there’s one, best way of course. ;o)
I never really use the “colour overflow” option because it can make it too difficult to see where the part stops and the glueing tab begins, especially on paper models without fold lines or when the fold lines are blended in with the part colours which I like to do a lot…
Sometimes I like to “edge-colour” my models (if you don’t know what that is, I made a small video about it here: link).
Although it’s not particularly meant for the glueing tabs, you can colour those too with a marker or a pencil while you’re doing the edges of course, but it’s only for added insurance of course, because the glueing tabs themselves get covered up anyway when you glue the parts together (while the edges of the paper always stay visible on normal paper models).
I like the alternating glueing tabs method a lot too, so that’s why I use it so much! ;o) Because they kinda “hook together”, it’s like you say very easy to see how to connect the parts.
But even so, most paper models do have some difficult parts: most people that built my papercraft young Link say that glueing the hat to the head and hair is quite tricky, so be sure to fold and shape all the parts properly and take your time! (but you should always do that really ;o)
Zelda is very popular amongst papercrafters, so if you browse the Zelda sections on http://nintendopapercraft.blogspot.com/ or just search around on the many other papercraft websites nowadays you can already find several different Gorons (and tons of other models too of course!) I would definitely like to make one myself too some time, but I’m afraid I can’t promise you when that’ll be…! :o(
I provided some extra help for young Link, I don’t do that on all my models, but maybe if you get stuck it can help you. But I hope you won’t need it of course, have fun building! ;o)
thanks for the tips =)
somehow i oversaw the goron on nintendopapercraft.
about the difficulty, i havnt got any big problems with link sofar. the hat was no problem at all.
the only infuriating part was the bottom of the torso where it connects to the belt. it took forever to fit it good without pushing it too far into the model =)
im nearly finished, just the legs and equipment to go.
ill try coloring the parts with a pen on my next model, so thanks for that too.
keep up the good work and have a nice day =)
Ah yes, I changed the way I did the belts on the newer Nintendo 64 Zelda models I made, because I thought it was quite tricky on the models of princess Zelda and young Link too, but I’m glad you managed to get it done! ;o)
I hope you can finish your papercraft Link without problems now; if you want you can send me a picture when it’s done and I’ll put it in the “hall of fame” for you! (but only if you want to of course, and take your time so you can make your paper Link the best way you can! ;o)
Have fun building the rest of Link!
I think your work is HELLA KOOL! I would love to see some models of BEN 10 characters. My son & I would BOTH go CRAZY!
Thank you for the compliments, I’m happy to hear you enjoy my papercraft models!
I have’t made any Ben 10 models myself yet and I can’t promise you when/if I will ever get around to making some, but some other people already did! ;o)
Destro2k for instance made a papercraft XLR8 alien:
http://destro2k.deviantart.com/art/Ben10-XLR8-a-337018456
There was another, humongosaur alien on the Nadask Project site, but it seems to be dead now… :o( You can still see an archived version of the site here though:
http://web.archive.org/web/20130116114819/http://www.nadaskprojects.net/2013/01/four-arms-download.html
And it should still take you to a working Mediafire link if you click the “Download” link at the bottom (remove the “http://web.archive.org/liveweb/” from the Mediafire link)
Those models are quite big and complex, but there are also much simpler paper toys like these ones from Tjaizue:
http://tjaizue.blogspot.com/2012/10/ben-10-ultimate-alien-ultimate.html
http://tjaizue.blogspot.com/2012/09/four-arms-from-ben-ten.html
Another Ben 10 fan made this papercraft Omnitrix:
http://ninjatoes.blogspot.com/2009/07/ben-10-omnitrix-by-ryan-mangion.html
It was even put on the official French Cartoon Network site with a paper toy Ben:
http://www.cartoonnetwork.fr/show/ben-10/downloads
And on the British Cartoon Network site, there are some more Ben 10 paper toys:
http://www.cartoonnetwork.co.uk/show/ben-10-alien-force/downloads
On Paper Toy Adventures there’s another paper toy Ben:
http://papertoyadventures.com/archives/705
And I think if you look around a bit, you can probably find some more! I hope you can find some you and your son will like, have fun! ;o)
Can you please make a shootzone robot papercraft from ThrillVille? Not the kind from robot invasion, but the kind from Hauntings without the pumpkins. :) thanks!
Hi there! I really have so many ideas for future paper models, that I already don’t think I’ll ever be able to do them all… ;o)
I have to say that I never played ThrillVille myself though, and unfortunately, that means that the chance that I’ll end up choosing a paper model from that game is not very big, sorry… :o(
Most papercrafters are big video game fans too though, so I’m sure there are some Thrillville players amongst them too! ;o) There are many papercraft websites out there nowadays, and maybe somebody will make some models from the game some time (or maybe people already have? ;o)
Don’t give up looking (I’m afraid I can’t remember seeing any yet, but that doesn’t mean it really definitely doesn’t exist of course!) and if you can’t find any now, keep checking back on big papercraft sites from time to time like Paperkraft.net to see if maybe someone made one!
Sorry I can’t really help you better than this, I hope you can find what you’re looking for; good luck and have fun!
Damn, a papercraft of Ron Stoppable besides Kim Possible would look just great. ;)
Hope U find the inspiration to make one some day…
A papercraft Ron has been on my to do-list ever since I made Kim of course! ;o) I just have so many ideas for paper models, that I just don’t know when I’ll ever get around to it… There are so many models that I’ve been waiting to do for years already, so I can’t promise when I will finally make Ron or other Kim Possible characters, sorry…! :o(
Perhaps a model of Detective Gumshoe can be modified to make a model of Ron Stoppable:
http://www.papercraftmuseum.com/detective-gumshoe-2/
One could just change the coloring of it.
It’s certainly possible to re-colour an existing paper model into a different character (you’ve proven that! ;o)
But for me, it’s not just building the final model that I enjoy, I also like working on making it, so if I ever decide to make a paper Ron, I will probably start from a new model myself. ;o)
can you make ichigo from bleach please
Hi there!
Thank you for your message, but papercraft is just a hobby of mine, and I’m afraid I can’t promise you which models I will do in the future exactly, sorry…
There are other papercrafters that already made different papercraft Ichigos though, like Rexxkentrix: http://rexxkentrix.blogspot.com/ who has lots of papercraft models from Bleach, including Ichigo, and of course if you search around a bit on other papercraft sites, you can probably find some other ones as well! ;o)
Besides “more realistic” paper models, you can also often find cute, much simpler paper toys, like this one from a person called Cyberdrone: http://cyberdrone.deviantart.com/art/Cubee-Ichigo-Bleach-159624125 or this one, from Kapilefty: http://kapilefty.blogspot.com/2011/08/bleach-ichigo-genetically-altered.html
And just like with the “more realistic” models, you can probably find more paper toys if you look around too! ;o)
I’m sorry I can’t really help you better than this, but I hope you can find a nice papercraft Ichigo from one of the other papercraft sites that you like to build, have fun!
hi there i want to know what kind of glue you use i use stick glue but is really hard to use with little pieces
I always use “TESA All-purpose glue” (link, but you can also find a picture in most of the instructions) they come in different size bottles but I alwaysuse the 90 grams one because I find it easy to work with.
But really, most simple kids craft glues will do for glueing paper together of course: a lot of people use white PVA glue: in America for example many people use Elmer’s glue, or Aleene’s Tacky glue, and in countries like Germany, Uhu is a very popular brand. And a lot of people use carpenter’s / wood glue which also seems to work well.
I think you’re right about the glue stick, because of the shape it’s not very easy to work with especially on small parts… Most liquid glues come in bottles that have a small opening which works better for that.
The trick is not to use too much glue, or else you’ll have to hold it too long until it dries: only use a small amount of glue and spread it out and then put on the other part. That way, you should still be able to move it a little bit if needed, but you don’t have to hold it too long. ;o)
I hope these tips help, have fun papercrafting!
thanks for the info young men
hi ninja im looking for a licker from resident evil to do do you know where i can find one
Hi there!
Although there are quite a few paper models from the Resident Evil series already, I can’t remember seeing a papercraft “Licker” yet, sorry…
But I could be wrong of course; if it does already exist it’s probably just difficult to find, maybe on a Resident Evil fan forum or on one of those Chinese or Korean papercraft forums?
You might go looking for something that doesn’t exist though, but you can always keep an eye out of course in case it pops up some time, or maybe somebody will make it in the future! ;o)
Sorry I can’t help you! :o(
hi ninja im looking for the highwind design from final fantasy 7 do you know where i could find one ???? i know kaizo did have one but im unablke to get it and have tried contacting him but to no avail
It’s too bad Kaizo won’t respond to your e-mail, because he made *a lot* of neat papercraft models, from Final Fantasy and some others as well… :o(
I don’t know if he ever made a papercraft Final Fantasy VII Highwind airship though; I know he built one, but I think that’s the one from http://www.sd-sascha.com/site/gb-paper.html (scroll down a bit past the Macross/Robotech models, he actually made 3 different versions)
Those links should still work, so have fun building!
thanks ninja they are just what i am looking for
Hey Ninjatoes! It’s me again, asking you if you know any websites for Star Wars papercraft I am specifically looking for an AT-AT.
One of the first papercraft websites I found myself was SF Paper Craft Gallery, it has several Star Trek, Star Wars and other models, including an AT-AT: http://www7a.biglobe.ne.jp/~sf-papercraft/sifi.html
Sirius Replica made a weathered version of it here: http://siriusreplicas.com/models/scifi/at-at/at-at.htm
Noturno Sukhoi makes many papercraft Star Wars models, mostly of characters, but they also made an At-AT: http://noturnosukhoi.blogspot.com/2012/07/star-wars-at-atpapercraft.html
And I know Momir Farooq made a teenie-tiny AT-AT for use in tabletop games; his website is down because too many people visited it this month, but if you check back every now and then, you can see and download his work (he has a lot of paper miniatures!): http://momirfarooq.com/
And of course if you search around a bit, you might be able to find even more papercraft AT-ATs! ;o)
Have fun building!
Oh thank you so very much Ninjatoes You are epic! I especially want the miniature. It was exactly what I was looking for.
Well, it looks like the monthly bandwith limit on Momir’s site has reset, so you can now visit his site again and download the paper miniature AT-AT and all the other ones again: http://www.momirfarooq.com/swstarfighter/groundassault.htm ;o)
Have fun building!
I sent an email to LEGO® requesting that they adopt minifigure papercrafting as a marketing strategy (Yamaha has done the same thing, try googling it), and I got the following response. In it they ask for LEGO fans and papercrafters to contact them and let them know there is support for this approach. PLEASE DO!!!
They even have a shoutout for Ninjatoes!!!

Dear Scott,
Thanks for getting in touch with us.
I’m sorry, but even though I think your Papercraft Templates would make a brilliant LEGO® activity, we can’t accept your suggestion. I know this might be disappointing to hear, but we have a team of experts in Denmark whose job it is to dream up new LEGO sets, themes and toys. They tell me it takes years to plan everything. They need to test all the new ideas, talk to the factory about how to make them, work out what sort of box is needed and then deliver the new sets to all the shops in 130 countries! This means that there’s a good chance they could already be working on something similar to your idea.
I’m a fellow papercrafter and a 38 year old fan who was fortunate enought to get a job working for LEGO. I am well aware of some of the awesome papercraft minifigures Ninjatoes and others have created. I know Pepakura well too!
Please have your friends and colleauges who are LEGO papercraft fans write or email us! This is the next big thing, but we need more marketing data from our fans.
