A model rich in detail and color
This storage pot is built from a carefully designed structure of 36 pieces, delivering an expressive, characterful result. The templates are spread across 9 pages, with a color scheme that brings the character to life:
- 5 white pages for the beard, moustache, hair, and selected costume elements.
- 2 red pages for Santa’s iconic coat and hat.
- 1 black page dedicated to the trousers, shoes, and eyes.
- 1 beige page for the facial skin.
Altogether, the assembly requires 12 A4 paper sheets to achieve a sturdy, well-balanced result.
Final dimensions and challenge level
Once completed, the model displays harmonious proportions: 130 mm wide, 170 mm deep, and 200 mm high. Spacious enough to function as a storage pot, yet perfectly suited to festive décor.
With a difficulty level of ★★★★☆, this project is aimed at enthusiasts who enjoy taking their time, following each step with precision, and savoring the satisfaction of an object that is both useful and decorative. A demanding challenge—but a truly delightful one.
