Default Paper dolls... The best I've seen so far!

http://www.cardmodel.com.cn/viewthre...extra=page%3D1

Just came across the above page, well, it's those Rozen Maidens done with the use of fillers and paints, and some modifications.



--Impressive isn't it?

They sure are impressive. If you put Nezard's link into Google translation tools, well, I really hope there are some mis translations there...... that's all I can say...... It's as good as some of the funny signs I've seen in Asia

If I'm not mistaken, all of them are from Mizuirogakuen's site (now closed, and replaced with a spanking brand new suiraku, ask Lex he knows more than I do ).

frankly, I don't really like rozen maiden the series. But I love the dolls! They are very much fussy and cranky.

Laruru's right, those models are not available on internet any more.

Frankly, these models are the reason I was introduced to the RM series in the first place... ^^

It'll be a trip of joyride, that I can tell!
And don't forget the hair! Agonizing, yet compelling!
I made a slight mistake when making hinaichigo doll, which turned into a crumpled piece of art, instead a cute doll. I had to reprinted all over.

for the humanoid-ness place... hmm... I'm at lost. all my bookmarks are most about robots and cars.

elf, have you checked your mailbox?

Well actually models designed with Pepakura is pretty angular in effect. It's common for simple dolls to have very "pointed" folding edges, it's only when you go into the more complicated ones (like mizuirogakuen) that the model becomes smoothly curved.

And Bill thanks for the link! That's a very complicated figurine there...

I believe Mizuirogakuen used pepakura for his models and made with or without fold lines. My avatar is Verdandi by Mizuirogakuen and rolled instead of folded. Noname attached is also rolled instead of folded, both printed onto ordinary paper.

I've made a couple of these models and I would agree with bill, use ordinary paper, i.e. 80gsm. It's easier to bend the paper to get smooth curves and with the paper being thinner the edges don't show up as much.

I started Verdandi by Mizuirogakuen (pic included), but other projects sort of took over. I'm hoping to get back on with it soon.
