4 out of 5 starsVery cute, but I wouldn't use paper that's too thick. I'd rather use thinner paper, otherwise it will be more difficult to fold and stick.

Frequently asked questions
What is included in the purchase?
Except our papercraft kits printed & sent by post mail, our items are only digital files (PDF format) that you could download on Etsy as soon as your payment will be done. One of the files is the tutorial with the instructions (it doesn’t need to be print - if you want to print it, you can do it on a normal office paper). This document explains step-by-step how to assemble the sculpture. The others files are the patterns to be print on card stock (A3 or A4 / letter or tabloid in the US).
Will I be able to do it myself? It seems very hard to assemble.
Of course, everybody can make it. You will just need the utensils to do it but more important, you will need time, motivation, to be detail-oriented and to have patience. It is a fiddly job but it is entertaining. I personally use it to relax with music as the process of cutting, gluing and folding has become an automatism. If your child is under 12, I advise to make it with him/her. I didn’t recommend letting a child under 12 to do it by him/herself. If you never do a paper craft sculpture before, it hasn’t to stop you. Just follow the instructions and you will soon realize that it is easy.
If you still have a doubt, write to me and I will give you a free pattern to "try"!
What are the tools I will need to make it? Is there any special recommendations?
- Good paper scissors to cut each piece of the template.
- A scoring tool (or Pen Cutter) for folding the pieces without cutting them.
- A ruler (metal ruler is better).
- A nice working space to give you motivation :-)
Which paper do I need?
I recommend a paper between 180 Gsm & 300 gsm. I personally use a 250 gsm paper (grammage) & it is works perfect for that kind of sculpture. It is stronger and it will give more strength to the final sculpture. You can print on a color paper or white paper.
For our kits (https://www.etsy.com/fr/shop/EcogamiShop?ref=seller-platform-mcnav§ion_id=32495351), you will not need to buy the paper because the pattern is printed & sent to your home by mail.
Which glue I will need?
- Glue. White paper glue works perfectly for those sculptures. It dries in few sec. After gluing, you just have to press the two pieces of paper few seconds and that all!
If I buy a template, how many sculptures could I make?
Once the digital pattern bought, you will have it for you so you could make the sculpture any times you want. However, you can’t sell, share or publish the pattern or the final sculpture as it is prohibited. Your purchase should be only for you. Our creations are protected by Copyright.
If you have any questions regarding the sale of patterns (kits or finished sculptures), please send me a message at eric@ecogamishop.com
Is there a customer service if I have questions?
Yes, before or after your purchase, you can contact me in case you need help to assemble your sculpture.
Once I have bought a pattern, do you accept refund?
We do, as long as the pattern hasn’t been downloaded.
I want to buy one of your items to make a gift! Is it a good idea?
Of course, it is a good idea. There are three options:
• You can offer the pattern as a digital file (& even send it by email if your friend or relative doesn’t live near you).
• You can print the pattern & the instructions to make the sculpture, put it in an attractive gift envelope & offer it.
• You can assemble it yourself & offer the finished sculpture.
• Or buy one of our kits and have it sent directly to the person.
Is there a tutorial video to watch on the web and which explains how to make a papercraft sculpture?
Yes, check this link to watch our video tutorial: https://youtu.be/Zy4HRx4QcgE
