Pepakura wolf construction
Assembling and finishing my pepakura wolf! First I began by folding
the cardboard pieces and super-gluing the flaps, Prof Scott recommends
locktight. I then attached it to a wooden base so that the legs wouldn't
pull in when I added material to the exterior. I coated it with a shell
of aquaresin and fiberglass, this will make the sculpture waterproof
and super strong! It also gives it a cool almost furry texture.

Great work! Where did you get the pepakura file from? I've been searching everywhere for this.
ReplyDeleteI actually took the file from a database of pre-existing models, took it into Maya and Rhino to clean up the file and reduce the poly count and then took it into Pepakura.
ReplyDeleteI will see if I can find the pepakura file for you.
I apologize to anyone who had their hopes up, because I took the file from a model bank I technically don't own the file and can't just give it out for free. It is a relatively simple design and I believe anyone with a little 3D modeling experience could make it from scratch. Good luck!
