Paper sloop model making Exquisite cardboard sailing ship handmade

This article is a contribution by "Qin Jiahao" on the craft website, using cardboard to make a sloop model. Not to mention, the ship model made only of paper is very realistic and exquisite. It seems that as long as it is waterproof, it can be launched into the water for trial sailing! Let us follow his explanation and see how this beautiful sailboat model is completed~

I recently finished watching Pirates of the Caribbean 5 one by one. When I saw Captain Blackbeard making models of the stolen ships, I became very interested, so I came up with the idea of ??making a ship.

The first materials that need to be prepared include cardboard, 502 glue, wool, canvas, utility knife, ruler, pencil, and frosted paper.

The first step is to draw a long grid of 12 cm long and 5 mm wide on cardboard, and then cut it out with a utility knife. This is the material to build the keel. You need to prepare more. I did not take pictures, please Make up your own mind.

You can see that the upper left corner is made of cardboard, and the upper right corner is a part of the keel made of 4 such paper strips. The bonding parts must be fixed with 502 glue. Finally glue several of these parts together.

Don’t forget to insert the mast in the middle before gluing it together. The mast is also made of cardboard cut and pasted.

Fill the gaps in the keel with paper strips.

Then glue four horizontal masts on the main mast, and then tie the wool between the mast and the hull.

The next step is to fix the sails, cut the prepared canvas to the appropriate size and then use needle and thread to sew the wool to each edge of the sail. Note that the wool is slightly longer than the edge of the sail, and the extra part is used to fix it to the mast.

This model looks likeIt’s complicated. In fact, you only need to use your imagination when making it. There is more than one way to make it in many places. The key is to experience the fun in the making process and ignore the results. After watching Pirates of the Caribbean 5, your heart will surge. Probably everyone’s There is a Captain Jack Sparrow in my heart, and the production process is as if I am going to sail. I hope everyone can make their own free sailing boat.
