Functional Claws
I made this super easy and functional claw from paper for anyone who wants to elevate any cosplay!
Supplies
Paper (any paper will work for the rough draft part)
Pencil/pen
Scissors
Hot glue or Tape (any tape will work for the rough draft part)
Thin elastic band
Rough Draft Templates
Make a rough-draft of the shape of the claw and joints
Note: this might take a few tries to get the desired shape you want
New Templates
Make 2 templates for the claw and the middle joint
Note: the template will be different for everyone it’s your custom design
Last Joint Origami
For the last joint get a smaller piece of paper and fold it like this and use hot glue or tape it to keep it together
if you want to extend it you can cut out a triangle and attach it to the the top to make it longer
Constructing the Parts
Make the rest of the claw and middle joint by following the template you made
Movement
Now use the elastic band and connect the parts from the underside
Decorating
Decorate how you like and you are finished!
