How can I use this resource?

With this 3D craft resource, you can make paper birds that look like swallows. Low poly models combine computers and programs from the digital world with paper, coloring, scissors and glue from the physical world. You‘ll connect all the parts together to form triangular shapes and from that comes... a swallow! Most paper animal models look simple, but you have to be very patient when folding them. Fortunately, these swallows are composed of relatively few triangles and are one of the simpler paper models. However, it‘s still important to be precise! You can use this resource to create your own low poly swallows in three sizes. You can also use this resource to teach about low poly models.

What does this resource contain?

This resource contains templates for making low poly swallows in three sizes. Each template has several triangles that form the shape of the bird. You can color the different surfaces with colored pencils or felt-tip pens. You can follow the instructions to cut, fold, and glue the triangles together.

What are low poly models?

Low poly models combine computers and programs from the digital world with paper, coloring, scissors and glue from the physical world. You‘ll connect all the parts together to form triangular shapes. Three-dimensional paper animal models are made using folding patterns that consist of several different triangles that have been calculated together with the help of 3D programs. This gives them a geometric and abstract look. Paper crafts are a fun and easy way to make low poly models. Low poly paper crafts can help you develop your spatial skills and concentration.
