Yunas' Instuctions [Update]

Ok, i worked on Yunas' Instructions again in the last days. They are 90% complete now. Only thing still missing is the head.

Here is a little preview picture:

FFX-2 Yuna [finished]

After spending a few extra hours this night Yuna is finally completed. I am very proud to present you a special video with a few pictures and the final result. All in all it was a very nice project. The hardest thing definetely was the head. The rest of the body was "easy".

It was my first own project. So I got a lot of experience about papercrafting with it, what is the most important fact of all, i think.

Thanks again to Kaizo for his tutorial video about the steps to a pepakura file. He was the one who made it possible for me to start this project.





I don't know yet if/when there will be an instruction. I am working on it at the moment.
I did a lot of confusing things, like working with 2 pepakura files and those stuff. So please give me time. I even don't know if everybody will be able to download it. It is kind of a special thing for me. We will see...

>Update<
I decided to make Yuna downloadable. Cause when I thought about what papercrafting is about i came to the point that one of the main things of papercrafting is, to share your work with others. So please give me time. As written above I did a lot of confusing steps and i have to find a way to present it to you. (for those you ask when the release will be: It will take a few weeks i guess)

Tail finished

We now skip the "main body" and move on to the details. The first and biggest one is the
hair tail of Yuna. Not very hard to assemble, but it looks really great at the end. It gives
her that special thing i missed, when i looked at her before.

btw the first picture below is a tribute to ".Swift" from finalfantasyforums.net :)


Oh...and the pepakura file is done, too:

(78 pages)

YES!

1 month... 322 parts... 61 double layered parts... and tons of glue:

Three hair layers

Hi,

three hair layers done now. It works pretty good. The double layered hair parts are lot of work to glue but the assembling is easy going. Check out the pictures:

Christmas Gift

Hi,

this Christmas i got a new Digital Camera (Panasonic TZ 7)

The makro shot modus is awesome:

The first hair layer

Hi everybody.

Over Christmas i did not have the time to continue Yunas' head. But today i assembled the first hair layer and i want to show you the result:

Face finished!

After another 12 parts (Right Eye) the face is finished ! The second eye was harder to assemble then the first one. I don't really know why, but when i started, 2 parts didn't fit together ._. i needed two trys though. Well in the end everything fits then :

104 parts... approximately 10 glue flaps each part...

the disaster in its pure beauty:

Left Eye assembled

This time 12 parts were neccessary to build the left eye. It was hard to assemble but the result was ok for me so i assembled it to the rest of the face, too. I printed the eye ball 2 times. the first time it was too dark. you couldn't even see her eye color. now its bright enough i guess.

I dont know why but i didnt work on Yuna the last 3 days. maybe i was not satisfied enough ...

oh btw the current progress picture :

it seems like u see every little fold and glueline but as a lot of you papercrafters should know, it looks smoother in reality.

Nose assembled

I finished the nose today :D 21 pieces ...

Beautiful Lips

13 Parts only for the lips ...

Will there be an end?

Please, kill me :

First face attempt

I edited the face in pepakura and this is how far i got right now:

(maybe its only a testbuild im not sure if it will be the final version of the face...)

Left Arm assembled

I just finished the left arm. All in all it was easy to assemble. I had a few problems with her wristband but in the end it fit.

There will be a longer time with no pictures now. Cause i will have to work on the face in pepakura.


So this is the current progress:

Left Hand assembled

I spend two nights, but it's finished now. Yuna's second hand:

I want to try to give a bit more detail to my posts.

So this is the left hand of Yuna. As you can see the thumb is far away from the other fingers cause the hand will hold the right arm when it is assembled to the body. The hand as shown on the picture consists of 36 Parts.

I will build the left arm tomorrow i guess. depends on the time i have in the evening.

Right Arm assembled

Hi, finished the right arm this evening. Here are the results:

Current Progress [November 27th]

Instead of posting a bunch of Pictures i decided to post a video this time ! :

Yuna is heavy

I weighed Yuna;
168 gramms... wow, and its only about the half of the model...

The Hips

I am working on Yunas hips currently. I really like these extra Shirt Layers :

Skirt assembled!

after tons of glue and over 16 Pages Yunas Skirt is assembled :
