SHEDINJA


292 / SHEDINJA - Pokémon Papercraft
Name:
Shedinja
Type: Bug/Ghost
Species: Shed Pokémon
Height: 0.8 m (2'07″)
Weight: 1.2 kg (2.6 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Shedinja's body is based on an insect's shed exoskeleton. Therefore, its body is completely hollow (it possesses no internal organs). The shell consists of chitin and is entirely incapable of movement. As it is the shed shell of a fully developed Ninjask, it has a similar shape to the latter. Shedinja's entire body is brown in color; the abdomen is of a darker shade. There are four protrusions where Ninjask's limbs were growing. What appears to be its eyes are actually slits; perhaps formerly for the Ninjask the shell housed to look through. Shedinja has one pair of what appear to be tattered "wings" on its back, which is actually where the exoskeleton was torn by Ninjask to break free of the shell. Between its "wings" there is a hole, out of which the Ninjask escaped. Each "wing" divides into three smaller pieces. These "wings" actually don't perform any function, as Shedinja's body is immobile and levitates. Two horizontal lines circle its abdomen. A white halo constantly floats above its head.

Reminds me of a baby Dragonite. <3 && I love the base for Shedija. Usually, I'm not a base person, I'll just stick a magnet in the body but this base is brilliant.

This is my 3rd model I built. It looks awesome! I used a paperclip to make it look like the halo is hovering above the head. Thanks Paperpokes!
