After quite the search for a Minecraft Papercraft instructable, I was a little shocked to see there were almost none- so i went on a quest to bring justice to the inkjet printing, paper folding, and pickaxe picking communities. With that said, onto the instructable!


I think at one point or another, we're all wanted to have a bit of Minecraft in our everyday lives, and with Papercrafts, now we can! Weather you want a creeper to sit peacefully on your desk, or a pig riding Steve above your computer, with this instructable, you'll learn how!

(oh, and if you not into minecraft, there's thousands of other Papercraft templates out there, if you can't find one, i'm sure you'll have no trouble following along in this tutorial,)

Step 1: Finding Your 'Prints'

Before we can start 'crafting' our miniature blocks and mobs, we need to find a template for what we want to build, to help you out, i've compiled a multitude of templates, ready to print, for you to use. Just pick what you want to create from down below, and save it. When your set, check out step two. Oh, and in the parenthesis is the difficulty of the craft, for the most part these are easy, but some can be a bit more challenging!

The only things missing are Steves hand with a sword, bow and arrow, ax, and shovel and a bow and arrow for the skeleton not to mention the mine cart. :-)

Check out- http://pixelpapercraft.com/ - they have a huge selection of items!
jduffy54 says: Aug 26, 2012. 8:10 AM
I would add a light, so when you trigger it in some way (punching it?) it lights up, like I did before with a mario coin block.
BenBurge (author) in reply to jduffy54May 23, 2013. 6:25 PM
Sweet! Post some pics if you get something working- i'd love to see it!
FFDPfanJL says: Jan 2, 2013. 12:49 PM
ok. this is going to be hardcore, but i am gonna try to build 64 of each block and 2 of each mob (except steve) and make a mini minecraft world.
BenBurge (author) in reply to FFDPfanJLMay 23, 2013. 6:25 PM
That sounds awesome! Any luck with it!?
mdawg81400 says: Jan 25, 2013. 3:07 PM
Please help! I am having trouble with the "Your skin!" construction! How do you attach the arms and legs to the body?!? Please reply! ~The Mdawg
BenBurge (author) in reply to mdawg81400May 23, 2013. 6:24 PM
Sorry this comes a bit late, but simply attach the legs and arms as they would be the character in game! Arms on the side, and legs on the bottom of the torso!
Jon Kelley in reply to mdawg81400Feb 28, 2013. 4:05 PM
I can help you there. You see the tabs on the edges of the arms? Well, attatch them under the top body flap.
MACHOMINECRAFT says: May 23, 2013. 3:17 AM
oh btw can you add accessories like pickaxes the actual steve figure can hold? i think thats a really cool idea
BenBurge (author) in reply to MACHOMINECRAFTMay 23, 2013. 6:23 PM
The pickaxe is up there, but because of image hosting sites constantly changing i don't think i'll be updating the hyperlink-list much more...
Check out- http://pixelpapercraft.com/ -they have a whole section just for items!
MACHOMINECRAFT says: May 22, 2013. 6:21 PM
do you need a certain photoshop? i have 2 and im not sure if you need a certain one.
BenBurge (author) in reply to MACHOMINECRAFTMay 23, 2013. 6:22 PM
Nope! You can use almost any program to open these- but the easiest are: Paint, Window's Live Gallery, or Preview if you're on mac!

ok..one more thing you should add is the pigman....i know theres none in minecraft beta but its still a mob.You can find it easily on the Net. Good luck finding :D
BenBurge (author) in reply to wooohhhoooo9May 6, 2012. 7:43 AM
Just added- Sorry it's taken so long, i've been away, and totally forgot to check my email :/

Good call on the pigman too, i would have never thought of it..
wooohhhoooo9 in reply to BenBurgeJul 27, 2012. 9:37 PM
BTW, since the update theres some new mobs popping up like ocelots , snow golems , and iron golems.
bonastella says: Jul 7, 2012. 4:55 PM
Are these paper craft templates the right size?
Rebreg says: Jun 12, 2012. 9:19 AM
If you add small magnets to the inside you can rearrange them
Geeknxt says: Jun 6, 2012. 11:11 AM
Could you add an iron golem?

Thanks in advance.
acerobot191 says: Jun 5, 2012. 7:44 PM
I love all these but a torch and fence skin would finish my perfect model (I have Steve, a crafting table, a bed, a chest, some pigs, and a cute little mine!)
HerpDerp(pokefan880) says: May 6, 2012. 5:00 AM
Hmm, I see a picture of grass blocks, yet they look like origami, and not made from a shape net. If it is your picture, how would I make this box, and where would a net for it be. If it is not, then where is the pic from.
BenBurge (author) in reply to HerpDerp(pokefan880)May 6, 2012. 7:47 AM
Ah, you've cough me.. That picture isn't mine, but i liked it enough to through it in there.. Anyway though, To make a block like that you'd just use the same method you'd use to make a cube, but with minecraft patterned paper, if you check out here it'll explain how to make one similar!

Sorry, i guess in retrospect i shouldn't have used the pic..

Either way, Happy Crafting!
HerpDerp(pokefan880) in reply to BenBurgeMay 6, 2012. 8:14 AM
Thanks, I did indeed cough you! (I know you meant caught.) Funnily enough, I opened that same cube page up earlier today! I know, (since I used to be a mega origami geek) that the blocks in the pic are printed paper of an origami pandora box. I'll just make them out of dirt blocks and like. If you want, I can give you the patterned image once I make it! Thanks for the speedy reply anyways.
HerpDerp(pokefan880) in reply to HerpDerp(pokefan880)May 6, 2012. 9:11 AM
I just made a cube out of plain paper (6 Pieces, think of the trees!) , and I thought of something. Why not just attach the papercraft TO MY CUBE!!! EPIC WIN FOR THE HERPDERP.
BenBurge (author) in reply to HerpDerp(pokefan880)Jun 5, 2012. 12:14 PM
Oh, that's awesome! i'd love to see a pic if you could post one!
