ePaperCraft SHIRYU

Make something you can hold.

ePaperCraft SHIRYU brings 3D design and hands-on papercraft together. Shape a model on screen, add colors or photos, unfold it into printable patterns, and turn it into a real object with paper, scissors, and glue.

Start with more than 70 included models, from animals and vehicles to dragons and imaginative creations. Print and build one right away, then change its shape and appearance or design something entirely your own.

From your first shape to your finished paper model

• Create and edit original 3D models in SHIRYU.
• Customize shapes, colors, patterns, and part placement.
• Automatically unfold models into printable parts, then adjust their layout before printing.
• Follow illustrated guides from the first clicks to cutting, folding, and assembly.
• Use the original models you create commercially.

For hobbyists, teachers, families, and workshop leaders, SHIRYU offers a satisfying connection between digital creativity and making things by hand. A design does not have to stay on a screen: it can become a little creature on your desk.

First developed in 1999 and refined over more than 25 years, SHIRYU was selected as an Entertainment Division Jury Recommended Work at the 10th Japan Media Arts Festival.
