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
For each date that I go on, I would like to give my date something that I have folded myself. My first date is the 7th and I will be gifting a crane then.Do you guys have any more suggestions? Traditional is preferred, but contemporary or from something (like an anime or video game since she really likes those) is also welcome. My origami skills need honing, though, since I took a several year long break, so simpler origami is preferred for the time being.Thank you for your help.
>>628853Unfortunately, my main means of photography (my mobile phone) is out of action awaiting a new charging port. I have however folded a swan (the night of my post) and a heart (a few nights ago). The heart contains a message on the back asking if she would like to be my girlfriend, we agreed to decide whether we should truly continue dating or not after the first date. I just thought it was a creative way to ask the question. Everything has been folded on a 3x3" (7.6x7.6 cm) square, which were cut from standard A4 paper. The heart was colourized using two crayons, hatched along the axes. Is colourizing a good way forward and should both the crane and swan have added colour?The update on dating was that she was unable to meet with me on the 14th. I know that some anons may question her motives, but it is because of a very tight work schedule, I will not say much more at fear that I will reveal too much information. She wishes to meet on the 1st, but if not, then the 8th, it depends on her next schedule which releases soon. She already is hinting at a second date on the 14th before we even have had the first. I think the long initiation helps with this. We both really like each other and that the first date is the final piece to the puzzle before we decide on truly becoming boyfriend and girlfriend.Truth be told, I came very close to saying a certain three words tonight, but I still think it is too soon, even if it has been two and a half months tomorrow. I am feeling very lucky this year, for a number of reasons, so I have a newfound sense of confidence, but I must reign it in for a time.I wish to ask the people of this board, in case any other anons are watching. I would like a beginner friendly guides for the following.>flowers (roses, hydrangeas, bluebells and primroses are her favourites, but anything would do, I am particularly fond of plum blossoms)>house pets (cats, dogs and rodents)>small birds>fish>horses (her favourite animal)
Unfortunately, I am ill this weekend, so no date, but my mobile phone is back. These are the things that I made.
>>628956I will now contribute a peafowl. I draw daily for her. I like drawing, but had no reason to before meeting her.
This might be a bit too hard for you, but I love this tutorial too much no to share it.The description of the video contains the tutorial for the basic Hyndrangea, which is neat in itself.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrJft8Za8wg(Jo Nakashima has a video on the basic Hydrangea too, who has added a lot of helping graphics for beginners)Two models that should be rather simpleOrigami Hiromi on Youtube- Crane Circle- Heart CraneAnother more intermediate model:Sampreet Manna Origami on YoutubeMagic Butterfly Heart Stand
>>628966Thank you. My knowledge prior to this board was traditional, plus some stuff from Michael LaFoss that I remember seeing on Activity TV growing up ~15-20 years ago. I will have a look when I get back home.
This is a search engine to find CPs on adrive easily. It is a library with 1000+ crease patterns, and you can filter them by BP or 22.5, shape of the starting polygon...https://bogdanthegeek.github.io/CPoogle/
>>628962do not abbreviate crease patterns
Welcome, this is a SHARING thread, where you request and share single diagrams (preferably). And I would like to encourage sharing this mockingbird.

I've been searching for so long and have found nothing, I wasn't lucky enough to get it pre ordered and like yeah any help would be really appreciated
>>628950Thanx. That suits me just fine, 'cause the only thing I want from the whole book is just the Wyvern diagram.
>>628951Understandable. It was a long shot anyway. That book is really hard to find, not even second hand and trading is out of the question, anyone who has it already has everything I've got to offer. Gonna check that taobao thing and see if it's worth buying one or two diagrams.
Hmm so now we wait
Hi. I'm Arellano.. I have the full book, apparently you understand how difficult it is to acquire it, as well as the books I request (whoever has commented on it), so I look for exchanges. My email has already been posted, but I write it again, in case anyone is interested... <<arellanoarturo636 (@) gmail.com>>I leave an image of other books I have

I had a question but none of the existing threads are really too relevant so I thought making a general help thread from the get-go (beyond what’s in the welcome thread) would be good so even if my question gets answered the thread can be used for other people’s questionsI’m making a papercraft where I want to paint part of it gold for some extra pop, but I want neat and clean lines. I’ve seen a lot of artists use washi tape to do this in their art and I want something similar, but I have inkjet prints and don’t want any of the ink to lift up. Any tape recommendations? Or possibly other techniques? I’ve done some googling but I don’t wanna take my chances with buying a ton of tape just to test it.
>>619959Never mind, I figured it out. I think he left out an important part of these steps. The triangle in the middle was the key for what I was doing wrong. I KNEW I had done everything correct up to this point, so it was just about figuring out what I missed.
some sites you use to find templates? im a begginer
>>621939Usually i'm looking fot it at PaperZoneVN, but sometimes at Youtube, Pinterest, yeah cuz i'll take anything free
IS PAPERZONEVN DOWN FOR ANYONE ELSE AS WELL... I DON'T WANNA LOOSE YOU BABYYYY I NEED TO MAKE CHRISTMAS GIFTS
has anyone used a cutting machine to cut papercraft models? i recently got a silhoutte cameo 3 and i wanna use it on that
Teach me how to make a paper crane
>>628863no>>628864I shall sage it so your thread disappears infinitesimally quicker.
An old thread died for some zoomer ESL newfag to shit up this board.
>>628920Which part was difficult?
>>628926Not really, the clock thread is still up, and that was the last thread on the entire board last i checked
you fucking nigger bumped off a relevant thread i fucking hate tourists
does anyone else remember lucky stars? those origami stars made by gently tying paper? bc I've never heard anyone else acknowledge them and i think I'm going mad
>>628780Isn’t there a book about this or am I remembering wrong
son realmente populares hoy en día bro
Is there anything more based than making one's waifu/husbando out of paper?
>>625888Yeah, actually getting laid with somebody you love.
>>625890>3dpd shitsounds like cringe
Pic is kill but Just out of curiosity was it 2D or 3D posable doll?
I made a paper doll of wife a while back, I need to find a proper way to store it though
>>625892Here's a repost, it's 2D.There are a few papercrafts out there that are posable figures but I haven't made one.
RE-POST REQUEST. It's been pretty dead lately, not even requests, so I don't know if any one will read this. Can some one please re-post "Origami Pro 7" and "Origami Tanteidan Convention 29". They've been shared everywhere else already, so why not in 4chan?
>>628811No problem.
can some1 plse repost otm214 here 4 those of us who dont have a scribd subscription? thanx
OTM 214 leaked on Zhezhixueyuan but when I tried to open the post I got this message:"Sorry, this post requires a reading permission level of 50 or higher to view."I've never seen it before. Is there a way to get higher permission level on Zhezhixueyuan?
OK, forget Zhezhixueyuan, I found out how to get the file from scribd:https://scribd.vdownloaders.com/
>>628912Unfortunately to get higher permission level you have to do stuff like decorating your profile, adding others as friends, engaging with others etcIt's a very typical chinese siteI've been there once. There was this guy who was looking for a tanteidan magazine. Luckily I had access to it but the damn site didn't let me comment because I didn't had that "permission level" so I thought I would pm him but to pm somebody you gotta add them as friend first which I did but it took him a day to accept the request and by that time someone had already posted that magazine. This pissed me off really badly.Also they have a credits system. You earn credits by posting magazines and books and similar stuff or by collecting bounties and you spend these credits by viewing books posted by others.Another thing I found was that you can add personal information like phone number, address, place of graduation etc on your profile(it's not mandatory but to earn higher permission level, you have to) which makes no bloody sense 'cause it's a damn Piracy site.It's a big mess.Also can someone share the diagrams for the yuki sato's dahlia or the huywern from vog 20 years?
People here who ask for leaked models should kysLiterally just go on Telegram or any papercraft website. You'll find it AND not end up making 2-reply, useless threadsAnyway, thing im making to be at least OCRIP >>622919
It's name is single dahlia and is designed by yuki sato aka ori_sato
Hello, could someone please share it? I would really appreciate it.
