Miniature Papercraft Fantasy Castle

The template for this miniature papercraft castle originally appeared in the June 1984 issue of Dragon Magazine, a publication dedicated to the subject of role playing games. The official name of the castle is "The High Keep of the Grand Chapter of the Order of St. Raphael". However, to keep things short it was given the nickname "Great Stoney". An scanned copy of the magazine containing the castle template may be found here.

Krampus Paper Toy

In certain European countries, the Feast of St. Nicholas is celebrated on December 6th. In many of these countries, "Krampus Night" (in German Krampusnacht) is celebrated on December 5th.

Krampus also carries a bundle of birch branches in order to swat those children that are particularly naughty. Extremely naughty children are carried away to Krampus' lair. This paper toy Krampus was created by Trystan Mitchell and may be downloaded here.

Vintage Ocean Liner Paper Model

At first glance you might think this 1910 ocean liner paper model is the RMS Titanic, but it is actually another ship from the same time period: the SS Kronprinzessin Cecilie.

The Mount Vernon served as a troop transport during World War 1 until she was torpedoed in 1918. A scan of the template for the model may be downloaded for free here. The scale of the papercraft is 1:200. Instructions are available in German only.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier 64 Paper Model

In  books by Marvel Comics, helicarriers are flying aircraft carriers used by the intelligence agency S.H.I.E.L.D. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe helicarriers have appeared in two Avengers movies, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and also on the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. television show. Some argue that a helicarrier also appears in the final battle scene of the Deadpool movie, but that is an ongoing debate. ^^ Obviously a Marvel fan, Tekzo has created a 1:800 scale paper model of Helicarrier 64 which appears in Avengers: Age of Ultron. One thing that impresses me about the model is that it includes tiny aircraft to place on the helicarrier's deck! The PDF template for the model may be downloaded here.

If I were looking for a Joker mask that is most true to how the villain appears in the pages of Batman comic books, I would look no further than this mask. The Joker's insanely evil personality is captured perfectly in the facial expression of the mask. But be warned, this papercraft is not for beginners.
