Hello, fellow creators of Paper Iconic! Are you ready for another exciting project today?
It’s biology class time, and our star this session is the Oviraptor, a dinosaur whose very name tells a story. The word Oviraptor comes from Latin: “ovi” means egg, and “raptor” means thief. That’s right, egg thief. When paleontologists first discovered its fossil near a nest of eggs in Mongolia, they assumed it was caught in the act of stealing them.
But later studies turned that idea upside down. Further discoveries showed that Oviraptors were actually protective parents, found fossilized while guarding their own nests. So the “egg thief” was never a thief at all, just a misunderstood guardian from the ancient world.
Let’s move on to the next part of the lesson. Ready to recreate this fascinating creature with the free Oviraptor papercraft shared by SupSorgi?
Based on its appearance in Primal Carnage: Extinction, this papercraft captures the Oviraptor’s birdlike grace and prehistoric charm. Along with the default skin, the set includes four alternative skins for you to experiment with, perfect if you enjoy adding your own creative twist. Once completed, the model stands 19 cm tall and 32 cm long, made from just four sheets of paper. A quick but delightful project for dinosaur fans and papercraft lovers who enjoy turning ancient creatures into paper form.
