MF Doom Mask - Printable Paper Model - 3D Papercraft Model - Download PDF Template - DIY Decoration

★ Description

Alright. As the Halloween is coming I have decided to make some kind of a mask. The mask that I wanted to replicate is this one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MF_Doom

I haven't heard of the hip hop artist Daniel Dumile, but I liked the mask that he uses when he's on stage as MF DOOM. I have added some thickness to the model, so it won't be just flat piece of cardboard. I estimate around 2.5 - 3 hours would be enough to finish this project.

Recently I've revised the model and laied it out on the more popular Letter or A4 size sheets. I've separated the pieces on two simetrical parts so you could easaly reach the flaps inside. At the end you have to join the two parts together.


★ Dimensions

The models is:

250 x 176 x 140 mm

which equals

9.8 x 6.9 x 5.5 in

It is made out of 14 pieces laid out on 4 sheets of Letter or A4 paper.

You could print them out of 120 - 130 gsm cardstock or to make it nice and sturdy or in other words, something that is around one and half times heavier than a regular printer paper.


★ Quick Tips:

- If you want the fold lines and the edge ID's to end up inside of the model and not be visible, just switch the directions of valley and mountain folds (opposite of what is written in the manual).

- Always pre-score the fold lines. That makes them easier to fold and the creases are better looking. Generally they improve a lot the final look of the model.

- If you are using glue - it is better to use a slow setting one. That way you would have enough time to adjust the pieces. It is a good idea to glue one tab at a time. I use a toothpick to spread the glue on the tap.

These days I've started to use think double sided tape and I could say the results are much better and it is a lot easier to work with it than glue.

- Be patient. It usually takes longer than you've expected but seeing the finished model is very fulfilling.
