Starfruit

Starfruit shoots stars in five directions.

If your Christmas tree is looking a little sparse, Starfruit can help decorate! Happy holidays, everyone!

This is the PvZ2 edition of Starfruit, but I didn’t bother making the leaves. If you really want them, though, you can try using the leaves from another plant like Bamboo Shoot or Peashooter.

Bonk Choy

Rapidly punches enemies ahead or behind

This little dude is one of my favorites. It took a while for me to get the top of his head just right, but I think I’m finally satisfied with it. Enjoy!

Steps:

Start from the bottom. It’s easier.

Make sure the eyes line up with the previous row.

The eyes should bulge out a bit (check the numbered edges pdf to reference fold lines).

At this point, the head splits into 4 separate leaves/pieces.

Cut off the dark green parts to form scalloped edges.

Attach the side leaves first.

The front and back leaves should go last. they will overlap the sides.

For the arms, start with the base.

Then attach the rectangular flat pieces.

Make sure the lighter piece with the line down the middle is on the outside. Use a pen to curl up the leaves.

Glue the darker piece to the inside. You can cut a cleft in the leaves to match the original art.

Attach the arms to the bottom. Note the larger arm goes on the left.

I didn’t bother making the inside of his head double-sided, but if you want to, print a copy of the 2nd page and glue the pieces on the inside.

Bamboo Shoot

Lobs explosive shells at multiple zombies.

He can also double as a pencil holder 😉

Make sure the brown paper faces inside.

The lighter brown ring goes on top.

Continue to attach pieces from top to bottom. When you get to the eyes, make sure the eyebrows line up.

Each eye is a separate piece. Put the front together first…

…then close up the back.

Place each eye so that it aligns with the black circles on the body.

More progress

For the branches, start with the leaves then work toward the stem.

Completed branch.

There’s a circular shadow on the side of the head where the branch should be attached.

Beet

And the beet goes on…

It’s been a while since my last model so I’m trying to get back into the groove. Here’s Beet from PvZ Adventures!

I took a few photos for reference. Note that the actual model is slightly different since I tweaked it a little after putting it together.

Start with the top of leaf…

…and glue the underside of leaf behind it. I find it easier to cut off the white parts after both sides are together rather than before.

Next put the stem together. Attach the dark diamond-like piece inside first.

Then fold the outside over it.

The leaf should fit right in. Secure with glue.

Assemble the head next. The part that sticks out here is the brow; make sure the eyes are centered on it.

When you’re halfway through the head, you can attach the leaf. It should be centered on the back line.

The pieces should be aligned down the back seam.

Fume-shroom

Fume-shrooms shoot fumes that can pass through screen doors, ladders and trash cans.

I modeled him using 3 separate pieces to make assembly easier. Put them together separately then glue the gun to the cap and then center on top of the body.

The seams should line up along the back and the gun should be centered in front (if you look closely, there’s a dark spot where it should go).

Flower Pot

Flower Pots allow you to plant a plant on the roof.

The perfect accessory for all those plants you’ve been making! If you pair it with a bamboo tea coaster, you can really get your zen on 😉

I designed it to be 2 pieces, top and bottom, that you assemble separately then glue together. For top heavy plants like the Chomper, you might need to weigh down the bottom (with pennies or more paper) and use a wire/paperclip to attach the plant stem.

Jalapeno

Jalapenos destroy an entire row of zombies.

This guy is a little tricky to put together around the pointy parts… I recommend starting from the bottom up for the body. A pen or pencil tip is useful for pressing the edges together if your fingers can’t. As with Wall-Nut v2, I took photos of each step during assembly to use as a reference.

Wall-Nut v2

These lumps.
I know you wanna slump up on
These lumps,
But you can’t ’cause you’re a chump!

 – Adventure Time

It’s been a while since my last model, but I finally got around to doing version 2 of the Wall-Nut: now with 50% more lumps!

Version 2 is a bit more complicated than the original, so I took photos of each step during assembly. You can view them here.

Chomper

Chompers can devour a zombie whole, but they are vulnerable while chewing.

I saved the most difficult model for last… Assemble the top+bottom purple head parts first, then the lips and attach them to the mouth. Glue the teeth to the back of the lips. Don’t forget the tongue. Add the spikes along the top center of the head. Attach the stem to the back of the head, just below the center. Since he’s top heavy, you might have to crush the stem a bit to center the weight on the base so that he doesn’t fall over. Finally, glue some leaves from the Stem pattern to the base of the stem.
