SHARPEDO



319 / SHARPEDO - Pokémon Papercraft
Name:
Sharpedo
Type: Water / Dark
Species: Brutal Pokémon
Height: 1.8 m (5′11″)
Weight: 89.2 kg (195.8 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Sharpedo is a generally dreaded and distrusted Pokémon. Sharpedo moves through the sea by swimming at speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) by forcing water out of its rear. Its teeth are strong enough to bite through metal, and they grow back rapidly if they snap off. Sharpedo is driven by an unruly, caustic urge to attack and destroy anything that enters its domain. As a result of its temperament and its armament, just one Sharpedo can effectively tear apart an oil tanker. It evolves from Carvanha starting at level 30.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 18.0 cm/7.1 in
Width: 18.1 cm/ 7.1 in
Depth: 12.6 cm/5.0 in
No. of Pages: 3
No. of Pieces: 38
Level: Medium
Designer: PMF

NOTES: The easiest way to build it is by starting at the mouth and building the pieces up to the back flippers (aka "arms" on each sides). You'll want to glue the top and bottom fins as you build the body, then close the back and build each side flippers, closing them at the tips. You can also build the flippers and then glue them to the body but it will be a lot harder to close well.

The base is quite easy to build and you can add some weight in the base if you want. The model should rest with the "bottom" on the wave and the tip of the bottom fin at the base.
