@Malasuerte94 This seems to be a misunderstanding. The layouts for this pop up sculptures are created completely by hand, without the use of a computer – and especially without the use of any 3d modelling software. Only if every piece fits correctly, I disassemble the model and scan every piece with a flatbed scanner. Afterwords, I use the scans to draw the pieces with "adobe Illustrator". I only use a cutting plotter, if the shapes are very complex, otherwise, I cut them by hand.
@Malasuerte94 You won't need a special computer to create such pop ups. It's a thing of practical experience with real materials (paper and cardboard) over a long time period. Best, Peter
Hi Peter! Am totally awed with the creativity I just witnessed......Fabulous would be an understatement. I know creativity comes from the soul and can t always be transferred but It would have been great if you could share this knowledge with novices like myself! Would love to learn how you develop your thoughts into those paper pop -ups ! Keep up the great work!! All the very best!!
@RecognizeDisNiggah The first sculpture in this video is from 1989 (the spiral). The other four pop ups are from 2010/11. Perhaps you know my other video with white sculptures (Six Amazing Pop-Up Paper Sculptures) – all these pop ups are from my studies. It is difficult for me to recognise, if I really got better through the years. I am a little faster now, and my constructions are even more complicated, but I am not sure, if my newest pop ups are better.
@StArCrAfTIIHighDeff Many thanks for your praise. No, you can't have the diagrams, as I don't want my pop up sculptures to be copied. Please create your own designs! Best, Peter
@DesignPD yeah i can see that, thank you for answering :) do you think you can share with me how you learned to make these awesome sculpture :D ( can send me a message ?)
@StArCrAfTIIHighDeff I learned to do these things by 22 years of personal experiences and a lot of trial and error. But I can recommend some books for beginners. Please visit my facebook fanpage (please search for peter.dahmen.papierdesign on facebook). If you look in my recent comments, you will find a list with many tipps and tutorials. Best, Peter
@Masterkiller9000 Yes, I already created some pop up cards with skylines and cities, but they are not available on the market yet. I hope that they will be published soon. Best regards, Peter
Peter u knw what what u do really is so special ......ur wrk are so fine its very adorable.....how abt sme colors will that make it look smewhat more artistic dont knw since u are the guru in this .............ADMIRE
@samalert Thank you for your nice comment. For all who would like to see more colour in my pop ups, I made a special one. Please search for the "Paper Pop-Up Peacock" in my YouTube channel. You can find more coloured artwork on my facebook fanpage. Please search for "Peter.Dahmen.Papierdesign" on Facebook. Best, Peter.
@trinitywongxy Please read the description below the video, right here on YouTube. There you will find a link to many tutorials for pop up cards. Best, Peter
Hello Dennis, thank you for your reply and your compliments. For you as well: keep up the good work, I just cannot believe my eyes seeing what you come up with! Best wishes from Amsterdam, Ingrid.
@IngridSiliakus Hello Ingrid, many thanks for your praise. Especially from you! I love your paper artwork, especially the Scockhol Arena pop up card. Keep up the great work! Best wishes from Germany, Peter
Hey pete. How does your geometry algorithm works??? I mean. You might think of a shape (or even a building!???!? great btw!) that you wanna make. do you then just try your way out, or does everyone work like your torturial shows it: make the shape one a paper, so the mountain folding is at top an fold the rest back. Or does it depend on the very shape?
There must be some sort of algorithm or "laws" that one can follow, when a sculpture is thought of(?)
@lassehn Hey Lasse! You are right with your guess: It always depend on the sculpture. Sometimes, I think of an existing building, or a certain figure, that I want to create as a pop up. In this case, I have to find the technical capabilities to "flatten" this shape (and to let it pop out again). The sculptures in THIS video don't represent existing things so the working process was "inverted": At first I thought of a special technique – an then I created the figure, that suits best.
@lassehn (2/2) ... Most of my work is trial and error. I don't use a computer, when I create new pop up designs. The first steps are always handmade. Only if the card shall be produced as a serial product, I digitise my layouts in a later step. I don't know much about mathematics, I prefer to try things out in "real life". And yes: My artwork is NOT origami, so I use more than one sheet of paper. Some of my pop up sculptures consist of more than 50 pieces. Best, Peter
I'm sorry, but I don't know any teacher for paper engineering. I myself had no teacher, but learned everything by trial and error - and I am still learning. As a start, the books "Elements Of Pop Up" by David A. Carter and James Diaz and "The Pop-Up Book" by Paul Jackson may be helpful. You will learn most from your own experiences, if you practice a lot. Best, Peter
Hey, I commented a few days ago...do you know where I can find a Paper Engineering teacher to teach me these stuff? I am really interested in this. Art teachers are usually easy to find, but I have never heard of any Paper Engineering teachers? I live in Vancouver Canada.. Please feel free to give me any suggestions! Thanks!!
@bestblaster I designed these sculptures to be single unique pieces, and I ask for your understanding that I don't give my plans away. But you can find links to more than 75 tutorials on my facebook fanpage. Please search for "Peter.Dahmen.Papierdesign" on Facebook. Best, Peter

@TheIronDildo I created the pop up sculptures in this video to be single, unique pieces, so I ask for your understanding, that I won't make a tutorial for them.

@yazzook Oh, the last one? This is one of the most complicated pop ups that I have ever designed. I worked on it more than 9 days (including the creation of 2 previous models, that I needed to get the right measurements and angles).
Furthermore, I created this pop up sculptures, to be single, unique pieces. I don't want them to be copied at all. You can find hundreds of tutorials on the internet. Please try one of those. I published some links on my facebook-page: "Peter.Dahmen.Papierdesign"

amazing, i don't know if you speak english very well, but i think adding a black and white effect might make filming easier for you, because then it would only be the white of the paper, and the black background. all of you paper art are absolutely amazing!
@LlamaBoyProductions Many thanks for your hint! Actually, I have tried a black and white effect, but I found, that it made the video look to "clean" and a little bit as if it was something historical (like a silent movie). You are absolutely right: My video is really not perfect, but I thought, that it is more authentic to leave it this way (in colour). Best, Peter
@DesignPD oh :D okay :) i mean, i think they look great as they are, but in the background there were like a little bit of almost flickering, sorta thing. but yeah, i can see how it might give an aged look to it :D
@CrispCards Until now, I have only made one tutorial, but I will make some more in the future. Please visit my YouTube channel and search for "Amazing Pop Up Card Tutorial". Best, Peter
@broetchenmampfer Lieber Brötchenmampfer, ich habe an den Pop Ups zum Teil mehrere Tage gearbeitet. Sie sind als Einzelstücke gedacht und ich möchte nicht, dass sie von anderen kopiert werden. Davon abgesehen würde ein Tutorial-Video sicherlich mehr als drei Stunden dauern. Diese Pop Ups sind wirklich nichts für Anfänger. Wenn Du Tipps haben möchtest, besuche meine Facebook-Seite: "Peter.Dahmen.Papierdesign" Dort habe ich einige Links zu How-To-Videos gepostet. Viele Grüße, Peter
