Full Figure Samurai paper model

Howdy Folks,

Is there a detailed Samurai figure paper model readily available for download?

I am aware of the Samurai Armor items.

Thanks,

BP

GPM (gpm.pl) has a samurai "figurki" for sale. The sode look inaccurate, but I think they could be fixed.

Papercraft of Date Masamune and Kuroda Yoshitaka (1/6?) were previously available from the maps.co.jp website, but luckily the Wayback Machine has them archived here:

If you're looking for 1/18 foot soldiers I recolored Zio Prudenziati's naked Hoplite and added Niku Mansei's generic red and black armor to make Ashigaru for the Akechi, Ii, Maeda, Oda and Takayama clans in my papermodelers.com Downloads folder. Download the supplemental file to make a total of 66 possible variants.

I might possibly do base figure recolors based on the Epson Olympics figures papercrafts but don't hold your breath.

Those two kits, are available on Amazon Japan, not as downloadable kits

Thank you Slawomir,

Altho not a full figure this from Epson is close enough for a needed display.

Samurai Armor with instructions downloaded free from Epson.
Printed 30 parts pages on letter size 110 Staples card stock at 90%.
That is a ton of printer ink.
Parts pages were given a coating of Krylon acrylic Gloss spray.
Cut out parts were edged using water color. To prevent smudging each part was again sprayed with gloss acrylic and allowed to dry before gluing.
Figure and sword bases were reinforced using cereal box cardboard.

His angry teeth are hidden, I was tempted not to attach the mustache but thought it must have some significance.

The model is 17 inches to the top of his antlers.
