Kwai Japanese Beast Monsters, Buildings and other weird stuff

This link at Paperkraft leads to a one eyed Japanese child monster:
Hitotsume-kozo Papercraft ~ Paperkraft.net - Free Papercraft, Paper Model, & Papertoy
I explored the site and found a page with links to more strange creatures:
作る - ボッチの紙の遊び場3
The Rhino couple in formal wedding dress are interesting if a bit odd.

There are Japanese free download urban buildings and links to models you could buy if you lived in Japan:

Models you could buy if you read kanji and had credit card on a Japanese bank:
??????????? - Yahoo!?????? - ??????????????????
The Edo era models look very desirable.


This page at bottom has links to many many simple very cute animals dressed up like people.
Danger: May Be Too Cute For Work!!!

The paper model figures represent Yokai, fearsome creatures which infest Japan and bring trouble to travelers, unsuspecting virgins, and to both the virtuous and the wicked.
I had not realized what a dangerous place Japan was, how easy it is to stumble upon and annoy a Yokai and doom yourself to a horrible fate.

This very useful book describes the different kinds of Yokai lurking in Japan's dark corners, and more importantly how to defend yourself from a Yokai attack. Everyone planning a trip to Japan needs to read it.

Be careful, be safe, never turn your back on a Tengu.
