What is pepakura. It's a question most of us ask ourselves when we first hear the word. I personally had to google the name as I had absolutely no clue as to what it was.
Pepakura is the art of fold paper to make three dimensional paper models of just about anything. I became very interested in pepakura after attending FANeXpo Vancouver, and seeing all the different costumes that were made using the pepakura technique.
"But Cy, I suck at crafting" Have no fear. Pepakura is just a matter of following lines and matching numbers. If you can use a hobby knife without cutting anything off your On the right track. If your not good at crafting or are unsure,start with something small and work your way up to harder builds.
To start with you can get away with just having a hobby knife,cutting mat and a glue stick.
This will get you started and give you an idea if you like it or not.

what other words to pepakura namely because I am not sure plain paper or paper drawings or other paper is also the same as pepakura .. please tell me .... sorry about my bad English
