Hello, fellow creators of Paper Iconic! Are you ready for another exciting project today?
In Japanese pop culture, nekomimi (cat ears) and animal-inspired characters are beloved symbols of cuteness and playfulness. These designs often become mascots, characters, or even fan icons, and it’s no surprise that they’ve also found their way into papercraft.
Today’s project introduces Neko Girl Papercraft by たご (Tago). This model was originally created to celebrate a friend’s blog reaching 10,000 visits, and it’s based on their mascot character, Neko-san. Even if you’re not familiar with that story, you can simply enjoy it as a charming nekomimi girl papercraft that reflects a popular theme in Japanese culture.
Despite its simplicity, requiring just four sheets of paper, the model captures a delightful level of detail: a petite loli-style girl with cat ears, a long tail, a beret hat, high boots, and a belt decorated with a tiny fish. Once completed, the papercraft stands at 22 cm tall. Files are provided in both PDF and PDO formats, with image-based instructions to guide your build.
