General recommendations for the creation of paper sculptures
  1. Take your time

    Don’t attempt to complete the model in one sitting. The best way to enjoy the experience and end up with the most accurate results is to leave yourself several quiet evenings for the process.

  2. Thoroughness and Attention to Detail

    These qualities are enough to complete the assembly process. Children under 12 may need adult assistance to assemble the model.

  3. Choice of paper

    The result depends directly on the quality of the materials used. Please do not attempt to assemble a model with regular paper; the use of office stationery leads to poor results. In our kits, we provide high-quality paper, it does not crumble and delaminate on the folds. This paper has a light texture such that when the model is finished, it will be difficult to tell where the glue is applied. If you chose to buy paper yourself, we advise you to opt for textured paper with a density of 180-250 gr/m ², e.g. watercolor paper.

  4. Glue Selection

    Our kits include the perfect glue. It's almost impossible to find anything like this in a retail store. If you decide to purchase digital templates, please take the choice of glue seriously as it is going to affect your assembly experience. Metylan glue for wallpaper joints is suitable. UHU paper glue or Finnish carpentry PVA glue are also acceptable.

  5. Sculptures can be painted

    But not just any paint. It is better to use paint in a can, paint in thin layers, and let each layer dry. The model can only be painted when assembled. It will not be possible to draw patterns with a brush, because the sculpture may become deformed. Airbrush and spray cans are suitable.
