Have you ever seen a paper model and wondered, “Wow, how did they do that?” If so, then look no further. This is the course for you!

Researching and learning all of this on your own can be really time consuming and difficult. That’s where this course can really help you! This course makes it easy to learn everything you need to know to start designing and building your own paper models from scratch. Using the most inexpensive means possible, this course will teach you how to design and build your own paper models (also known as papercraft or cardstock models) using the free and open source software applications Blender and Inkscape.

This course is for all skill levels. You do not need to know anything about Blender or Inkscape to take this course. It really is quite satisfying to go from nothing to something you can see and touch in the real world!

What you will need for the course: the interest and desire to learn, a desktop or laptop computer with basic graphics capability, a color inkjet printer (or at least access to one), 110lb. cardstock, white PVA glue, hobby knife, scissors, tweezers, a surface to cut on like a piece of corrugated cardboard or cutting mat and a variety of colored markers.
