From the Edo, Meiji or Taisho periods. Here my own attempts at paper models from over 200 years ago.

thank you OP for sharing these! Do you know if these models have a particular name in Japanese? I would love to research them.

Those are very nice. Makes me think that doing something similar with one's own drawings would be very rewarding.

looks good but try painting with watercolors

These are awesome! Consider taking it to another level by putting maybe a black card stock on the cardboard or even start on black posterboard!

OP, thanks for sharing these tatebanko. It’s great to see the final product. May I ask what the dimensions are of the uncut sheets?
A
Anon01/21/25, 12:52No.624719
I reckon the flat walls need layers of card.

I came here from pol and now I'm dropping politics, trolling, and shitposting to write, produce, direct, and film a tatebanko remake of Au Hasard Balthezar set in urban Japan in the 1980/90's starring a friendly house cat the size of a horse. Thank you for fixing my life.
