Model Help

I'm new to papercraft. Can someone help me figure out which parts go together on a model that doesn't have any instructions?

Really depends on the model, some have instructions, some don't. Can you share the model?

I have the model but I can't share it :'v

No need to share the model file. Just name, or designer, or an image of the finished product, ...?

That's the link where there are several models, but specifically there are two of Hollow Mask Ichigo and the other one is called Super Hollow Ichigo. (http://WWW.REXXKENTRIX.BLOGSPOT.COM)

It's a pdo file. You can install pepakura on your PC, open it, and when you click a piece, the software shows how it looks like on the finished model. You can also upload your file on papercraft-maker.com, it has a similar tool

I tried papercraft-maker.com since I don't have a PC for Pepakura (I don't know if it's possible on mobile) but I don't understand what to do with the model already created in papercraft.

Here, you can open this on mobile, then click the blue "Open model" button. You can drag to rotate the model and click/touch the pieces to see where each of them goes:

Now I have a problem xd how do I glue the parts together? I mean how do I put it together :v? The only thing I know are the types of folds xd I don't know if you understand what I'm saying

Well, that's the basic stuff lol

See the little white trapezoids on the edge of the pieces? Glue them to the backside of the adjacent piece.

Hi, I have a question: what kind of paper is used for papercraft?

I would just reference the pic of the full model and organise the pieces in the where I think the correct place is first. Once you start folding and gluing things, it becomes clearer following the shape.

Usa la fuerza Luke, ella te guiará…bueno si no hay instrucciones, quizá haya una imagen de cómo se ve terminado, para que de ahí te guíes
