Assembly tips for optimum results
Each part has its own number with large symbols for your convenience. I recommend starting tentacle assembly at the end. Find the part marked with the letter “a” and continue gluing in the order a-b-c etc. Read the instructions carefully before assembly. If you want to make a larger model, print the pattern on A3 paper and enlarge it up to 145%.So, are you ready to take up the challenge and dive into this exotic world of papercraft decoration? Enjoy!
