5.3. Character and Scenery Elements
- Assemble the main character elements, such as the Catbus and Mei. These often involve layering multiple paper pieces to create a 3D effect.
- Construct the scenery elements, including trees, bushes, the power line tower, and the Jizo statue.
- Use the sponge provided to apply any textured elements, such as the green foliage for the bushes. Apply a small amount of glue to the base where the foliage will go, then gently press the sponge material onto the glue.
5.4. Final Assembly and Placement
- Once individual elements are assembled, carefully glue them onto the base according to the design.
- Pay close attention to the placement and angles to recreate the scene accurately.
- Allow the entire diorama to dry thoroughly before handling or displaying.

6. නඩත්තුව සහ රැකවරණය
To preserve the quality and appearance of your paper craft diorama:
- දූවිලි දැමීම: Gently dust the diorama with a soft brush or compressed air to remove accumulated dust. Avoid abrasive materials.
- ස්ථානගත කිරීම: Display the diorama in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperature changes. These conditions can cause fading, warping, or damage to the paper.
- හැසිරවීම: Handle the diorama with care, avoiding excessive pressure or bending of delicate parts.
7. දෝශ නිරාකරණය
Here are solutions to common issues encountered during paper craft assembly:
- නොගැලපෙන කොටස්: Double-check the part number and orientation. Sometimes a gentle trim with a craft knife can help if a piece is slightly too large.
- Glue Drying Too Fast: Work in smaller sections. For intricate parts, apply glue to one surface, position, and hold briefly.
- Glue Drying Too Slow: Ensure you are not using too much glue. A thin, even layer is usually sufficient. Use clothespins or clips to hold parts together while drying.
- නැතිවූ කුඩා කොටස්: Work over a tray or a light-colored surface to make small parts easier to spot if dropped. If a part is lost, consider carefully crafting a replacement from spare paper if possible.
