Creative 3D Scene with Fox Papercraft
If you’d like to try your hand at 3D crafts, here is a pretty 3D Scene with Fox Papercraft for kids to try! The lush green is perfect for spring!
We love creating forest crafts here – there’s so much opportunity with green foliage, and you can add in as many animals as you like!
That’s why we had a lot of fun creating a full-fledged jungle diorama, featuring lots of animals in their natural habitat. However, sometimes you want to create something simple, without overcrowding the scene. And that’s where today’s craft enters the picture!
Today we have a 3D forest scene that features a cute little fox – nothing else! It’s simple, cute and great if you’re just starting out with 3D crafts!
Creative 3D Scene with Fox Papercraft
Supplies required:
- Colored cardstock papers
- Cardboard
- Craft glue
- Pencil
- Sharpies
- A pair of scissors
How to make the 3D Scene with Fox Papercraft:
1. Download and print the scene with fox papercraft template. The template includes parts for both the base of the 3D scene as well as the elements that go into the scene like the fox and trees.
2. We’re going to do this scene with fox papercraft in two parts – first constructing the base, and then adding the elements. For the first part, you need cardstock or thick craft paper in different shades of green. Trace the four patterns of the base on green cardstock and cut them out.
3. We also need some cardboard strips, about 1 cm thick. Make sure the length of the strips doesn’t exceed the length of the square frames from the previous step.
4. Let’s begin the assembly of our scene with fox papercraft! Start with the plain square – this will be the bottom layer. Stick two cardboard strips on opposite ends of the square. If you like, you can cover all four sides too.
5. Apply glue on top of the cardboard strips and place the second layer on them. Now you have an opening through which you can see the base.
6. Take another 2 (or 4) cardboard strips and stick them on opposite sides of the top layer.
7. Apply glue on top of the cardboard strips and place the third layer on top of them. Secure them in place – you should now have two concentric openings. Continue step 6 and stick more cardboard strips on the top layer.
8. Let’s put aside the base for now and move towards the trees. Trace the patterns on green and brown craft paper and cut them out. Attach the tree tops to their trunks.
9. Bring back the base and attach the trees on top of the third layer with glue, aligning them with the cardboard strips.
10. Apply glue on top of the cardboard strips and attach the final, fourth layer on top. You’ll notice the trees appear to peep out of the sides.
11. Our scene with fox papercraft is taking shape! We’re moving on to the fox now – trace the patterns on craft paper and cut them out. You can use a deep orange or brick color for the fox, and white for the parts.
12. Let’s start by getting the parts ready. Stick the white tip at the pointy end of the tail and the furry chest on the upper part of the body. Attach the face on the bottom half of the fox head.
13. Time to put everything together! Attach the head on top of the body and the tail behind the body, applying glue on the back. Stick the legs on the bottom of the body.
14. Take a black Sharpie and draw some eyes and a little nose for our fox – adorable!
15. Place our little fox in the 3D scene, attaching it to the third layer, on the bottom.
16. Make your mushroom out of red and white craft paper and stick it on the topmost layer and that’s it – your scene with fox papercraft is ready!
Isn’t this absolutely adorable? We love 3D crafts because of the multiple possibilities they offer. For instance, you can add the elements on any layer you choose, so you get a wonderful effect. All it takes is a little planning, and if you follow our steps carefully, making this will be a breeze!
