Paper Modelling

So, are you thinking about the paper modeling? It’s indeed a good choice!

So what exactly is the paper modeling?

Paper modeling or paper models are also referred to as the paper craft in which the models are designed and constructed using the sheets of heavy paper, paperboard, card stock and foam.

But then if you belong from architecture field, then model making or paper modeling is the key skill which is necessary. Actually, it is a good way of presenting a 3D paper art in any of the project. This is because it gives you a reality check of how all the elements will look in reality when it’s combined together. In addition to this, it makes easier for an individual to perceive things together.

What will you make out of paper models?

This is the first step that you need to figure out while making out the paper 3D models. This is because nature and size will determine the base material that will be used to construct it. For example, if you are dealing with models of apartments, then outside as well as inside layout are all that matters, thus, you need to choose materials and base accordingly. But if you are making paper models of animals, then outside layout is the thing that you need to look into!

What are the materials that we use for paper models?

ODE Craft own a wide range of materials and a team of paper modeling experts. Paper modelingtotally depends on the purpose, available time and the level of expertise.

The basic materials that we use in Paper Models:

• White Foam boards: These are available in multiple thicknesses. These boards are used to give a base to the models.
• Cork sheets:These look like the brownish sheets and are less thick and more flexible.
• Foam sheets: These are flexible enoughand also do not easily break. These are available in a variety of colors and thickness.
• Wood:Wood can be used to give a base to the heavier models. Also, the balsa strips can be used to give shapes and structure.
• Heavy Canson sheets, paper, wires, or clay can also be used in the paper models but then it totally depends upon the kind of model and the patience you have to do paper Mache.

What are the tools that we use forpaper models?

ODE Craft use a wide range of tools for the paper models. This gives finishing look to the models and also makes it look clearer and better. So, some of the tools that we use are fresh blades, precision knives, scissors, L-square, metal ruler, self-healing cutting mat and laser cutting. These tools ensure the fact that all of our paper models gives exact finishing look.
