Turn Photos Of Your Head Into A 3D Paper Model

Online app Paper-Kit creates a 3D digital model of your head, which you can print out and wow your friends with.

You’ve always wanted a 3D paper printout of your own head, haven’t you? That way you can put it on a stick and pretend like you’re conversing with a decapitated android version of yourself. An android you that’s, er, made of paper.

Well now you can finally live that dream with the Paper-Kit app, which enables you to turn a photo of yourself into a 3D model. All you have to do is take a pic of your head from the back, sides, and the front, upload them to their head-modeler web app, and they’ll do all the hard work of creating a digital 3D model.

Then you print it out and, using some scissors (be careful with these as they might be sharp), cut out the different components, fold, and stick them together—then off you and your replica head can go on whatever adventures you like.
