Super helpful! Getting ready to do my first papercraft project. Feeling well-equipped after watching your thorough video. before watching this, I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. Thank you for sharing this with us!
This is extremely useful, thanks, yesterday i tried doing paper craft on a very, very thin paper, used some middle school scissors and did the folds with my hands and then smoothen them with a ruler, needless to say it was extremely slow and frustrating, thanks again
Sure. The 3D models are first done in Blender, exported and then imported into Pepakura Designer where the layout is done. If you want to see how I use Pepakura then check out my video on it. I cover most things you'd need to design your own paper creations. The most difficult step though is producing a good 3D model but check out the many UA-cam videos on Blender. You can use any 3D modelling package of course....
No, the ones in my Etsy shop cost a few dollars but you can get lots of free papercraft models on the web - some good others not so. A good source is www.tamasoft.co.jp/pepakura-en/gallery/list.php although you'll first need to install Pepakura Viewer in most cases.

How could you set that glue bottle icon on every flaps? 6:13
I can't find any options for this in the program.
It's not done in pepakura - I add the icons in Adobe InDesign just for clarity.
Nice this helps so much more
Thanks. Very helpful.
