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
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?
>>629552anon ur a genius. i love ur artwork
>>629552I'd buy a book for the technique. How the fuck do you do this?
this is ridiculous, you're making yourself a laughing stock, and you should stop posting immediately.
>>629686tell me your thread is on page 10 with less replies without telling me your thread is on page 10 with less replies.
>>629686fuck you, i would take 2 and a half OP's over your foolish negativity

>>547093goddamn this thread is old, trump wasn't even president!
Does anyone happen to have this book to share?
>>629610>Please do all of us who actually fold these models a solid, and generate some good willMy good will has left the building a long time ago.
>>629643that pretty much sums it up why this whole board is dead
>>629647No, it really doesn't sum up anything. It just means that I'm not going to keep being the only person to upload stuff here for everyone when we have a shit load of people who come in here and don't contribute anything.I admit, the board is extremely slow, but it in not completely dead.
>>629676i was talkin about the general feelin not about u specificallymost of us who come here dont have the newest or hard2find stuff.just what u can easily find online already.so we got nothin 2 sharethose who have it mostly come 2 trade not shareso u know.adjust ur expectations.(again talkin in general)u would have better luck on discord.telegram or a .onion site.but its been my exp those guys are not the sharin type so u better have somethin 2 trade
>>629677Copy that.

I want to make a papercraft mask for Halloween, I was thinking maybe a goat or a cow.Where do you find patterns / templates for masks? I've tried searching with search engines, looking on Reddit, on torrent trackers, on Libgen, but no luck so far.
>>625335Can I grab the skulls ones from this? I'll make a temp email if you're still around.Also, anybody got a chicken/rooster mask template?
>>625329Are there papercrafts for luchador masks?
Hello 4chan, could you help me make a paper mask like the one in the image? I'm new to the subject and have no experience. Thanks.
>>627583Idk man but those are cool
>>628220Heh
Use YouTube and look for paper mache Halloween and mardi gras mask tutorial. You can use glue instead of plaster but the idea is the same
>>628315>That sounds like it would defeat the purpose of a mask...you know...because God is fake.Big if true.
>>628315Regardles of how much of a redditor you are... It has nothing to do with the purpose of a mask.
Paper bros how do i get into DIY notebook making with A4 sheets. If you've got any guides, PDFs, videos, or bookbinding resources, drop them here.Thanks.
https://youtu.be/UmvZAKvts58?si=Y5oXI9hU0CkbI-s8https://youtu.be/98SdMoq4kcc?si=O_NpmbsqdRBS4YSithese two videos really helped me to get on the basics, it's actually pretty simple, in any case, i recomend checking out japanese bookbinding tutorials as wellhttps://youtu.be/s9P07WAbYHs?si=P6VMqDcrnWafkoqE
>>629633cool anon i'll check these out
>>629632https://www.youtube.com/c/DASBookbinding this channel is awesome, i dont recommend you japanese bookbinding as your first project, try some little notebook in order to familiarize with folding the paper, perforate it and doing simple sewing, from there you can try more complex things, buy a simple kit with needles for bookbinding, it will help you a lot after you r first project.
>>629641Great thanks anon
>>629641ultracomfy stuff. he even answers questions in comments
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?

Agree. Anyone got Puyan 2026 extra collection
I'm curious to know
>>629657i'm new to this so idk yet. i'm guessing pic related is your favorite?
>>629657I enjoy simple dragons derived from the bird base. Dinosaurs are cool too
does anyone can share diagrams of multipiece origami like Isseis t-rex ? seems to be very rare.
>>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.
Any more input for me ?

>>629662thank you bro
Papercraft with additional / alternate materials, aluminum, wire...
These are really cool. They've got a neat stylistic look to them. They need like a web series or video game with this visual style.
>>629461
Not into warhammer but their power armor is fuckin cool
Miku
>>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!
>>627796Not seeing any niseke here, but that post is GRAPHIG.
will you make one?
>>629650Oh, are you his biggest fan then?
>>629651No, I'm just not going to fault people for being smart and becoming filthy rich in the process.
>>629652You're not a native of /po/
>>629654What makes you say that? I've been coming in here regularly since 2010.
>>629655Nothing, this has been an experiment.I just wanted to see how much response I'd get to slagging off Musk on the slowest board on 4chan.
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?
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.
>>629454[spoiler] That's really cute [/spoiler]
