SPIRITOMB


442 / SPIRITOMB - Pokémon Papercraft
Name: Spiritomb
Type: Ghost/Dark
Species: Forbidden Pokémon
Height: 1.0 m (3′03″)
Weight: 108.0 kg (238.1 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Spiritomb are thought to be evil Pokémon. They tend to go on destructive rampages like Gyarados. It is said to act as a hive-mind, with all of the souls that comprise it acting in unison towards the same goal. It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 18.0 cm/ 7.1 in
Width: 18.6 cm/ 7.2 in
Depth: 12.9 cm/ 5.1 in
Pages: 5
Pieces: 31
Level: Hard
Designer: PMF
Photo: PMF
NOTES: Spiritomb is kinda hard to build but I tried to fix it as to be easier. It's made of 3 parts: the "rock", the "neck" and the "head". Each parts has a different colors of letters in the template.

The rock is easy to do, just start by the top, glue the middle pieces to fit the "purple inlays" and close at the bottom. Don't forget to add some weight in the rock to help it stand (some penny or 5 cents usually work.)
The neck is a bit harder, but start with the bottom part and close with the circle piece on top.
The head is made of 2 parts, front and back. Start by building the front and the back pieces separately. Then add the small rhombus pieces on the front piece where the spikes are (follow the letters). Then glue the white piece inside the middle of the front piece and then glue the back piece on.

When all three parts are made, glue the neck at the back of the head and then glue the neck on the rock, using something to stabilize the model while it dries

it looks like spiritomb is going to be an "expensive" paper model: a few pennies in the base are probably going to be neccessary to keep it up right.

Hey Paperpokes Team,

Did you know that spiritomb and sableye, because thei Ghost and dark type, they have no weaknesses?

That would've been good to put on

Oh very nice... i'm very impressed at your models of pokemon that don't have what you might call a solid state...
Are you guys gonna do some Halloween special pls? :)

@trash: Um, I guess you haven't been following, but every model from October has been a "Halloween special". Crobat is probably going to be THE Halloween model, unless Mankey, Slakoth, and Houndoom get released by October 31st as well. Houndoom was originally the model for the day of Halloween, I think, but then some new models got added to the roster.

Megan is right it is much more interesting to know that it has no weaknesses instead of copy/pasting random gibbirish from Bulbapedia.

Great model though! I'm not on that level yet but I'm getting there...
