Hi yall!! I just got pepakura and i have a 3D model of a face. I set the height of the design to 24 in tall, and then I export to dhx but when I open the file in illustrator—it is huge. What am I doing wrong? submitted by /u/Human-on-a-voyage [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Greetings everyone, sorry if the question does not belong here but I would like to know, can a 3D file be used to create templates in Pepakura or should something be done to that file? And if so, how is it done? submitted by /u/metalking3 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi all! I’m preparing a pretty large cosplay build for the fall. I normally do my sculpts by hand, but this Dark Souls armor is a little above my pay grade. So I bought a pattern online, which included all the little pdo files and obj files. I’m totally new to pepakura and I’m pretty much allergic to 3D modeling with a computer (I weirdly find it faster to do by hand!). From what I can see, the pattern itself is well worth the price and will certainly save me a TON of time that I would’ve otherwise used pulling hair out over getting the curves and little jaggy points just right. Except there ..read more

I need to make Leona cosplay from League of Legends following the Wild Rift version and I wanted to use pepakura to make the pattern for her armor and then use EVA foam. However I can’t find online a way to extract the 3d model and put it on pepakura… submitted by /u/MeowItaMeow [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello again. So with a little finagling and bashing my head against a wall trying to find out what I needed, I discovered how to get Final Fantasy 14 models exported to my computer as .obj files. Great! But... we still have a problem. There's no details! What do I do now? submitted by /u/CG_FuriousPotato [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello! So I got a small problem; I recently learned about Pepakura and I found out that you can import STL, OBJ, etc. to Pepakura to make them out of craft foam. This is important because I want to make the Drachen armor set from Final Fantasy XIV. Now, two problems: The load times are ABYSMAL. Found out it was because the items have like 1.21 KABILLION polygons. After the armor piece DOES load, when I try to unfold it, it unfolds all of the individual polygons. How do I resolve this? Is there a way to simplify the objects in question? I've seen lots of tutorials for Pepakura, and all the t ..read more

Hi! I'm new using pepakura and this might actually be simple but I'm having some issues while exporting a blender object. It creates a weird gray back faces and I don't know how to get rid of them. ​ https://preview.redd.it/sed37yjuy7kc1.png?width=1105&format=png&auto=webp&s=8a1b233a2334d1d0c4fdeb6129e80eaa62c94b66 submitted by /u/Hielitoz_117 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
