Papercraft Edit Meaning

1.

A hobby of crafting three-dimensional models out of paper, not too different from origami. The difference is that papercraft involves cutting out shapes and holding them together with glue, whereas origami involves folding a model from a single sheet of paper without glue or cutting. Very similar to card modeling.

B-chan: That's papercraft for ya. C-san's really gotten into it these days.

See origami, paper

2.

The occult art of changing the meaning of things by writing or stamping things on pieces of paper and moving them around. A skilled papermaster might give himself the privilege to drive, or make himself a citizen of many nations. Regrettably, most budding papermasters sell their souls and become file clerks instead.
