Hints and tips?For folding, The best advice is to always fold as cleanly as possible, and take your time. Everything else comes with experience.https://origami.me/beginners-guide/https://origamiusa.org/glossaryWhat are ‘CPs’?Crease patterns are a structural representations of origami models, shown as a schematic of lines; they are essentially origami models unfolded and laid flat. Lines on a crease pattern may be indicated by ‘mountain’ or ‘valley’ folds to show how the folds alternate. If you’re particularly skilled at origami, they become useful instructions for building models. A common base fold is usually discernable, all the intermediate details can be worked on from there.https://blog.giladnaor.com/2008/08/folding-from-crease-patterns.htmlhttp://www.origamiaustria.at/articles.php?lang=2#a4
Oh hello, What origami projects do you recommend to help me destress? ;1pls help me, I get stressed very easily :')
Miku
i have 5 kanade ones i made and i put them on my shelf, they are indeed the only decoration my room has other than posters
>>627591Thanks for this, I made three so far.
>>627581>>627591am i supposed to just print this whole page? wouldnt the blue background waste a lot of ink? or do you cut the shapes out in gimp or something and put them in a new document? is this a very autistic question?
>>629614>wouldnt the blue background waste a lot of ink?You'd normally print this out in a printshop with a flat price per page so you wouldn't care. If you are doing this at home, by all means edit out everything in gimp to conserve ink.
>>629615ah, i see. thank you for the tip!
im just curious if anyone has and will be willing to send a pdf of the origami from china book, I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance.
""Origami Works Of Tu Kaiming"" I have this book and I will exchange it for origami from china contact me at: notademuerte2@gmail.com
>>627795Can you share only Zi Luang baby croco? Thanks in advance.
>>627795>I have this bookIf you bought this one, then why didn't you buy the other one as well? Origami From China is actually cheaper than Origami Works of Tu Kaiming.
Just, from where you got the image?
hi anon, i finding for this book, if you've get the file, could you please send it to me or you can exchange with some book i got, my email: helloimmeo123@gmail.com
Does anyone happen to have this book to share?
>>629606I second that, or just the rooster diagram please.
>>629606>>629607Sure, if someone would share OrigaMIT 2023.
>>629609Dude, IF you have the book you loose nothing by sharing just the rooster diagram. Most want the book for the gorilla. Please do all of us who actually fold these models a solid, and generate some good will.
You could check some convention archives.
I would be so happy if someone share KOC Vol1 book. I don’t remember when was the last time someone shared something here on 4chan.
does anyone can share diagrams of multipiece origami like Isseis t-rex ? seems to be very rare.
>>629592https://pdfcoffee.com/super-complex-yoshino-issei-3-pdf-free.html
>>629590>>629592>>629593not OP but thanks for this
thank you guys, but I already have the book. Any other diagrams of that type ?
>>629600Kind of a different thing, but have you folded any Kyohei Katsuta models? He has a bunch of cool two piece modulars and ones where you lay two sheets on top of each other and fold them together.Not the huge elaborate many-unit thing, but it might scratch the itch.
>>629602thank you. never heard about him before.
Pearto and my cat Iselda
>>628839That cat has a lot of polygons. Must have taken forever.
>>628839Very cute :)>>629419True!
>>628839Cute!
>>628839This is cute OP :3
>>628839so cute i like it

>>625251What's the method to re-color these templates? I want to make some Raptors stuff.
If you can make this thing a reality I'll resign as an art (netzach) tutor. oragami is kino
>>627324The fine arts brings the joy out in everybody.
>>627318NeatCan you re upload the same image Im looking for the sauce
>>627325I see you've never been to /mu/>>627314Dying to see your resignation letter OP, you can still redeem yourself

I was looking for for my copy of ChronoTrigger in the basement when I came across this box from when I was 15/17. These are some of the letters and notes girls used to send me. Most of them are folded normally. However some of them range from unusual to insane. The origami folded ones I literally haven't opened in 15+ years because I don't wanna fuck up the folds trying to get them back the same way. Is this a thing or was I just living in a different timeline?
Then there's this one. Which came from another girl. Where were girls learning these styles?
Huh.. I thought the letter folding was kinda interesting. I guess not lol.
Im 43. I used to see these in high school. I actually found one stuffed in an old box the last time I moved. I unfolded it and took a picture of the note. Never thought about grabbing one all folded up.
>>629454Man that takes me back. I'm not sure I ever got one that complicated but yeah we used to pass them back and forward to kids on different bus routes.In hindsight they probably put in a bunch of effort I didn't appreciate. I wonder if some Cleo magazine or something taught them it.
I would love to see more examples if anyone has them.
Ey /po/, one of the new Pokemon from Pokemon Sun and Moon version is Kartana. It looks like this. Can you make it in real life with origami, and if so, how?-/vp/
>>624503Yeah
>>629317>Random people bumping it.True, but jannies are very biased towards old threads too. There's that other one that has hit the bump limit for years and is still there because jannies are making sure that it stays there
>>629321Are you talking about that piece of crap clock post that should have been gone years ago?
>>629322Yup lol
>>624564>9 year old thread
What type of sticker paper is best for making stickers that stand against weather like heavy rain or snow?I bought some vinyl sticker paper and put a sticker on my friends car to test it out. We had some heavy snow and the sticker got a bit muddied. I need something that will really last. I'm not sure if there's different types of vinyl paper or if it's brand dependent? I used to use glossy paper and my friend said her sticker I gave her immediately faded in the sun.
Put stickers on then paint over with clear nail polish, make sure to get the edges too
>>629106By the way don't do this on a car body, just windows, then you can remove with nail polish remover on paper towel
>>628721There's higher quality vinyl, I think it's your best bet. Nothing's gonna last forever tho. Good luck with ur search
I swear I might be the only person making this kind of origami. I've been doing this since 5th grade after getting obsessed with Pacific Rim and making Kaijus and Jaegers out of paper. Somehow it evolved into this. I've seen other people try, but most end up wetting the paper or crumpling it too much until it gets soft and brittle. That's not how I do it. Thinking of selling some of these. Anyone wanna buy one?
>>629567This is how I make the human origami, anyone interested buying it?
>>629558It looks like doodoo, not voodoo.>>629568No interest in buying one at all.
>>629552>those nails
>>629571maybe he a flamenco player or shit
>>629577Damn flamingos.
