that helped thanks:) but does anyone know of a tutorial maybe with photos and/or a video? For dummies like me to be able to understand lol. I know how to cut,paste,put together and all that just not how to make my own with a 3D model I find online.

Anyone know if there is a Pepakura making tutorial out there?

thanks for the info on that:) Is there a Pepakura forum where maybe someone can help me with the complex 3D models so I can make them have less faces so there not so crazy looking when unfolding?

can anyone help here:)

So what kind of paper do you use? Saw the photo but doesnt say what kind it is. Card stock?? Also I still need help with more complex models still (lower poly count or something) if anyone can help!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im going crazy here!!!!!!!

I've been able to do a box but that is it. What do you mean rearange more complex models? Plus when I exported models to .kmz it doesnt work right. like that cube was 226 kb and when I exported to .kmz it was 61 kb. If I try and open it in pepakura it crashs. Any idea why?? (figured it out I had...

I'm, looking for all kinds of things but I want to make my own .pdo file from a model and make it not one that has already been done. Anytime I get a file from the google warehouse I have to convert it so I just convert it to .3ds so Pepakura will accept it. It always says too many faces so is...

I new here and done a few papercrafts so far. Love it a lot. I hope this is the type of forum I've been looking for.
