Danielle Aras - Pepakura Studies

This is the first study I did leading up to the Pepakura project. I got the shape from the polyhedral models website.

This is what the cut file looked like after I had taken it through Illustrator and into Rhino:

For my second pepakura study, I started with a model in Maya and went through the workflow using Pepakura and Illustrator.

This is what the model and cut lines looked like in Pepakura:

Daniel Brookman: Eye-Catching 3D Posters in East London

These paper posters were created by FOAM, a British agency that specializes in unique branded content for music artists and bands. The design began as a 3D model, which was then printed flat in component parts and hand-assembled.

Tamela Sicay-Perrow: Final Robot Post

These pictures mark the culmination of my 3 pepakura project to date. The theme is a robot which is dissasembled on purpose. The continuation of this project is to use wires and lights to either suspend it in a workshop type atmosphere or to distress further and add attachments to make it look like a real robot being repaired. The pictures follow first from the modeling, to breaking it up in pepakura, to illustrator workflow and to the progress from unpainted pieces to a mostly assembled final silvery robot. There is more yet to come in this avenue of projects.
