Low Poly Airship, Steampunk Airship, Airship Papercraft, Paper Model Blimp, Ceiling Decor - DIY Printable PDF Papercraft Template Download

Please note no items will be shipped to you as this is a downloadable PDF template.

Bring a bygone era of adventure into your home with our low poly papercraft airship template. This impressive paper model steampunk airship is a statement piece to bring a 'wow' factor to your home. It will look great as ceiling decor in a living room, bedroom or man cave. The printable template is purposefully designed to be plain with no colour so you get to pick the colour of card used. If you want a steampunk or dieselpunk vibe, use the template as a starting point, adding metallic card, cogs and gears to make your airship unique. The fun part of purchasing a KaBlackout template is that you can customise it or try out alternative variations. A hand-crafted airship built by you would also make a unique gift for anyone who dreams of voyaging through the skies!

The PDF template and assembly guide are supplied as instant downloads so there are no shipping charges and no need to wait for the delivery truck, you can start creating today!

All our photographs show real-life papercraft sculptures handcrafted by us and not computer-generated images. You can see more photos of our work in our About Us section.

Your order comprises multiple PDF files. Included will be a black and white template for your sculpture and an English language assembly guide which can be printed on either A4 paper or US Letter size paper. In addition you will need some basic craft supplies such as scissors and glue.

You then follow the advice in the assembly guide to cut out the component parts of the sculpture from the template and stick them together to build your sculpture.

Due to the nature of our products being digital downloads we are unfortunately not able to accept returns, exchanges or cancellations.

However if there is a fault with any of the files you have downloaded or if any of the files are not as described please contact us within 14 days of purchase and we will try to resolve the issue.

No, just ordinary paper cardstock available from high street stationers and craft shops. The templates are fully compatible with both US Letter and International A4 format paper.

Card stock is available in various sizes, colours, textures and finishes from stationery and craft shops. Part of your fun in the creation process is to choose your own colour scheme. Card stock is often classed by weight in GSM which stands for grammes per square metre.

Unfortunately a few home printers have difficulty with heavier cardstock. If you are unlucky this way, you have the options to either get the template printed at your local copy shop or try using a lighter cardstock that your printer can process.

In the assembly guide for our sculptures we will suggest a particular cardstock weight based on our own experience of building the sculpture shown in our photographs. This is just a suggestion, if the suggested cardstock is not available, use whatever paper and cardstock you have to hand and see how you get on. However using heavier cardstock will give you a sturdier finished sculpture, while using lighter cardstock will mean a less durable result.

There two alternative ways to stick your sculpture together. If you want to use glue, we recommend that you use a white glue that turns clear when it has dried. PVA-type glues such as Mod Podge or Elmer’s Glue-All are ideal. We have a short video showing how to assemble a sculpture with glue at https://youtu.be/k9j8HYASC4g

If you prefer, high-tack double-sided adhesive tape can be used instead of glue. We use this method when we are assembling sculptures which use speciality materials such as glitter or metallic-finish cardstock which can be difficult to bond with PVA glue. Unlike glue, tape bonds instantaneously so you may find that you can assemble your sculpture faster and more neatly by using tape but this method is more expensive.

This will vary as some crafters are more experienced than others and some sculptures are more challenging than others. We give each sculpture a difficulty rating running from 1 to 5. (1 is easy and suitable for novice papercrafters, 5 is challenging and aimed at experienced papercrafters). Each item listing will tell you an estimate of the difficulty level and assembly time.

No.

Finished is bigger than I thought. I bought several 3d but it is one of the few times when the file has no errors of samble or in the labeling of parts and parts; It was nice to put it together and I would love to add an image of the result but my dog also found it cute and jumped on it.
