What is papercraft or paper craft?  Essentially it is the art of building three dimensional models out of paper,  card stock or similar materials. Add zombies to the mix and it gets even cooler!

Before we start, please keep in mind these zombie papercraft, zombie paper toy models, free zombie paper masks etc. are the hard work of some very talented graphic artists and illustrators. We’ve provided many links to the websites of the creators of these awesome zombie papercraft toys. Please take the time to visit their sites.

Some of them are able to offer these free zombie paper toys and crafts because they are selling something on their site. Many of these talented artists can even be commissioned to provide their services to you. Please take the time to support them. Visit their sites, buy something, or at least take a second to leave them a comment or drop them an email to say thanks.

UPDATE – 8/13/2023:
We first noticed ThunderPanada.com was be gone about 7 years ago. The site appears to remain offline and is no longer accessible. No worries though.

You can view them below.

5.  Zombie George Papertoy

This awesome adorable zombie papertoy model comes from paper project genius and artist Marshall Alexander.  I’m not sure why we love this little guy so much. Maybe the huge thick rim glasses and the name George remind me of a certain godfather of the zombie movie genre? Click the image or link above to grab your free zombie paper toy template.  Marshall created these models specifically to fit the small pages of  Volume 1 and Volume 2 of the Fat Chunk comics.  In case you aren’t aware, each of these volumes is a collaboration of awesome art and printwork of various artists. Volume 1 is a robot theme and Fat Chunk Volume 2 is all about zombies!

UPDATE – 4/29/2016:
Unfortunately this awesome papercraft toy resembling George Romero is no longer available for free download from the original author’s website.

UPDATE – 4/17/2018 & 4/16/2020:
The original artist’s site, MarshallAlexander.net appears to be gone. The links here will now take you to our uploaded copy of the original file we downloaded for free many years back. Please see notes below.

We generally try to avoid hosting any of the downloadable template files here on our site. While doing so does make things easier for our visitors and readers, we try to encourage users to visit the original artist’s or creator’s website whenever possible. Unfortunately, that just isn’t possible in this case. The original site, and all alternative sources for this zombie papercraft model, have disappeared over the years. This file was originally offered to the public for free download. We still get many requests for updates on this particular piece.

As a result we’ve chosen to upload our copy which you can download here.

Unfortunately, if you’re dying to have this papercraft zombie model while still supporting the original artist, your options are limited. Your best bet is probably going to be purchasing the book Fat Chunk Volume 2: Zombies by Jamie Smart. This model is reportedly included within its pages. That likely won’t go far in supporting the author since the book, its website and the original publisher appear to be long gone as well.  The book itself is becoming harder to obtain since it was originally published back in 2009. If we find updated info on the original artist, or how to better support them for their efforts, we’ll update this post.

6.  Zombie Cheerleader and Zombie Jock

These 2 awesome zombie paper toy creations were created by illustrator and graphic art extraordinaire Adam Steel. These zombie toys are a cute zombie cheerleader and zombie jock couple.  Now you can make this set of zombie prom king and queen using the free downloadable templates.  CLICK HERE for the zombie jock template and CLICK HERE for the zombie cheerleader template.  Too cool! Adam has a few other cool zombie creations you’ll probably end up seeing featured on this page.

7.  Zombie BFF Paper Toy

This free zombie paper toy features a happy young girl riding on the shoulders of her zombie friend.  You can clearly tell these two are going to be best friends forever!  To download the free template for this zombie paper toy CLICK HERE.  This little zombie work of art was created by Cubeecraft guest artist Abi Braceros (aka Abz). Thanks to Abi, cubeecraft.com and paperkraft.blogspot.com for bringing this awesome free zombie papercraft to the mass

8.  Seated Cube Zombie – Free Zombie Papercraft

This seated zombie papercraft has to be one of my favorite zombie paper toys to date. The sick details and gory exposed brain are just the right blend of realistic gore and cartoonish features! From the power rock wristbands to his Misfits t-shirt, you can tell this guy was a rocker in his living days.

This is an awesome collaboration by Brazilian artists Victor Negreiro and Julio Cesar.  Click here for the free pattern to create this zombie work of art. Although I haven’t had time to build this masterpiece yet it does look a little more involved than some of the other zombie papercraft listed here. Take your time. Make careful cuts and folds and you should be fine. The great part of papercraft is, in the worst case scenario you just print out another one and start over until you get it right!

9.  Free Zombie Papertoy- Left 4 Dead: The Tank

Anyone that has ever spent some time playing the popular video game knows the hulkish beast that is the Tank. You generally feel and hear this monster coming before you ever see him. As a gamer, when you sense the Tank’s presence your palm’s get a little sweaty because you know the zombie Sh*t’s about to hit the fan! Thanks to Saltnpaper.com now the tank can strike fear into the hearts of zombie fans on a daily basis in paper form.

10.  Free Zombie Papercraft from Macula.TV

This free zombie papercraft is brought to us from artist Christopher Bonnette on his site Macula.tv. We love the wonderful big eyes and cracks and wrinkles around the face. We’re not sure whether the dagger on the floor belongs to the zombie or one his recent victims, but it’s still a nice touch! This zombie work of art can be constructed absolutely free.

Update 4/16/2020:
Unfortunately the site Macula.tv is no longer up or available. We’ll update this post if we find the site has relocated. We did manage to obtain a copy of the original file that was hosted on the site. We’re making that file available for download below.

Download the template here.

11. Undead Larry 1 Zombie Papercraft:

Undead Larry is brought to us by Zombie Carter from TheZombieNation.com. He’s cute, adorable, and relatively easy to build. There aren’t many complicated folds or cuts, so this zombie papercraft is ideal for younger zombie fans to help out with.

Update: 8/13/2023: Unfortunately, it looks like TheZombieNation.com site is gone. That stinks! The good news is we’ve managed to snag a copy of the pattern which you can view here:

Undead Larry Pattern

12. Undead Larry 2:  

This is a second version of Undead Larry. Just like the original, this one is brought to us by the folks at TheZombieNation.com.

Update: 8-13-2023 As mentioned above, TheZombieNation.com doesn’t exist anymore. Luckily, we could upload our copy of the pattern to our server for archival purposes so Undead Larry 2 can live on! Well. . . not live on. You know what we mean.

Download the Undead Larry 2 Papercraft pattern here.
