After printing the individual parts, they are cutted using a Plotter and then glued together. To unwrap the 3d model (converting it into two-dimensional, printable pieces), I use Pepakura Designer. My papercraftsI use to create my papercrafts in Cinema4D, which requires a good amount of low poly modelling skill (remember, you'll have to manually assemble everything in the end). Then simply cut it out and glue it together. It is best to print the included graphics on as stiff cardboard. You can download the little flower as a printable papercraft. It’s easy to assemble, so I already created an entire, differently colored army of flowers: You should definately invest in such a helping device if you frequently create papercrafts for yourself or your friends.Īll together, the “Little Windowsill Flower” is a technically simple, yet colorful and cute papercraft to pretty up your living room.

The chiseled design is intended, by the way. The flower is entirely made of geometric basic figures, so this took me an hour only (modelling inclusive texturing). Here it is -meet the little windowsill flower!Ĭreating the 3d modell with Cinema4D was an easy task and a walk in the park.
