Retard here. What's the best or cleanest way of adhering separate pieces of cardboard/paper/laminated paper when making a card? All I can come up with is crude kindergarten-level stuff like taping the edges and using gluesticks and etc.
Recently I got inspired by this guy who models their cosplays with cardboard and I got surprised by how good the round shapes ended up look like. I only want to make a mask with round shapes but every tutorial I found uses straight strokes for the template and I want to know if I can find more information of how to do it the other way
>>625438yup.
>>625421For searchable terms: a **dart** is the sewing/pattern term for the type of cut shown in your helmet pattern photo used to turn a flat surface into a ball-like curved surface. The opposite concept of adding material to get a saddle-shaped surface doesn't have an exactly analogous term in sewing to my knowledge, but **godet** comes kinda close.
>>628206If you just want to start getting your hands dirty, one way to come up with 2d cutting patterns like you see here is to work backwards from 3d to 2d. For example, let's suppose you wanted to design a suit of cosplay armor that will fit you, and you want to know what shapes to cut out of foam or cardboard that can be fitted together into your armor. You get a friend to wrap your whole body in saran wrap, then wrap around that saran wrap with duct tape. Then you draw on the duct tape with a sharpy and try to partition the surface of into areas that have roughly zero gaussian curvature (either flat-ish surfaces like the front of your chest, cylindrical-ish sections like your upper arm, or conical sections like the taper of your forearm), areas with negative gaussian curvature (pringle/saddle shapes, like where your pectoral muscle attaches to the arm), and areas with positive gaussian curvature (roughly spherical bumps like your shoulders or roughly spherical indents like your armpits). mark each region with a +, -, or 0 according to what its curvature is.Once you separate the surface into these curvature areas mark each side of each label each side of each sharpie line with a number so you can put it all back together later. Then carefully cut off the saran/duct tape along the sharpie lines, preferably with kiddie scissors so you don't stab yourself.
>>628207Now sort the pieces +, -, and 0 piles. The zero pieces should flatten out nicely as they are. They can just be cut out of foam as they are. + and - pieces will stubbornly not want to lie flat as they are. The (+) pieces will get taught around the edges and loose in the middle when you try to flatten them. They may even tear around the edges if you try too hard. To get it to lie flat, you add some some labeled sharpie lines around the outside then cut them (like in your helmet photo). These are your darts. Do this until it lies flat.The (-) pieces will get all wrinkly and fold over themselves around the edges if you try to flatten them. to get these flat, you gotta remove some material around the edges. Draw some pizza slices (godots) around the outside and label the edges, then cut the pizza slices all the way out, but hold onto them. Do this until each of the pieces lies more or less flat with no overlap around the edge of each main (-) piece. Now you have a bunch of flat pieces which you can trace onto your cardboard or whatever. Add a little extra size around all edges (except for the edges from darts and godots) so the thing isn't skin-tight. Cut all the pieces, bend them into shape, and glue them together by the edge labels. Now you have some fitted armor.
>>628208If you want to learn about this stuff in more detail here are a few different avenues you can dive into pretty deep:For sewing and patterning stuff: look up Colette Wolff's "The Art of Manipulating Fabric". Which covers darts and godots and a million other things that come in handy for this kinda work.To learn about the curvature type stuff requires a lot of math background, but generally speaking this is the primary topic of differential geometry of surfaces. Here's a URL to a free textbook pdf: https://docenti.ing.unipi.it/griff/files/dC.pdfChapters 1 through 4 would get you to a working knowledge of why the saran-wrap and duct tape method with the +, -, and 0 curvature regions works. Fair warning that diff geo pretty much demands you understand multivariate/vector calculus and linear algebra, and maybe some real analysis.I have also seen someone mention developable surfaces, which is the principle object of study in paper-folding mathematics, AKA computational origami. That's another fruitful avenue of study, but I warn it's significantly more challenging math than the diff-geo. That being said, you can just use tools other people have made based on this math without understanding it.

(It's my first post on 4chan, let me know if I do something bad)Have you heard of a legend about 1000 of paper cranes? People say if you make 1000 of them, your wish can get granted. So, for the sake of my wish I decided to try. I have over 100 cranes, but I rarely have time to make more, so I'm trying. Have a nice night, byeee!
ive been working on it! i have about 500 so far, its been a bit since ive counted
>>627976I did it, I finished 1000. I wrote my wish on the other side. Took 17 days to fold them all. Not sure how to display or present them because they’re all just on a big paper bag. I’ll let you guys know what happens!
>>623776>>628022I folded 1000 about five years ago. My wish did come true in the end, but it took two more years to manifest. Just a heads up.
>>623776It's pretty much the only thing I can do without reference. I fold and leave them about places. My third one is still my favourite, a little purple flower print thing that looks somehow jaunty. They're always slightly uneven though. I hate that.
>>623777I tried my best
Does anybody have diagrams for this model? They can be found in SAOC "origami Records vol1" the book with shipping is too expensive just for the one model.
Do any of these contain diagrams? Or is it just the CP? From my understanding the book I mentioned was the only one with diagrams

how me make nice moustache man?
>>628060You get a piece of paper, you read the thread, find the instructions and fold nice mustache man.
>Paperboots get smaller
>>623911cute and wonderful. God bless you.
omg boat family
>>623912it makes me sound like a fag but I love how whenever you find build instructions they can be in any possible language. Just looking at the meaningless diagram saying I need to ㄎ歸ㄑ雖ㄙㄩㄜˉ
this is such a wonderful photoi hope you'll have a great day anon
>>623911 Me encantaría saber cómo hiciste el chiquitito.
So I am tea dyeing and then baking paper to get a nice distressed look. I want to bind it with some this twine to keep a rustic look, but I am worried I will just keep ripping it.Pic related is my test leaf I made from my over cooked pieces. End of the day this is a prop for a table top RPG, so it will need to be strong enough to stand up to handling. Anyways anyone here ever worked with distressed paper or hand bound books? Any help would be great.
>>628101The plan for the book I am making is 5 leafs of 5 sheets for 100 pages, a protective sheet at both ends... Eventually I will figure out a cover but that isn't really a paper issue though idk how to attach it so it might be paper related.
>>628101Soft string, a cardboard cover to prevent tears. Leave the binds themselves a little loose. Japanese hemp stitch is pretty easy on the paper. If your twine is rough, consider painting it with a little starch and water. Dry, crumple, paint again and it'll soften up some. Try not to soak the bits you're stitching if possible.If you want some cheap prints find the manual for Netstorm, Islands at War. Has some pencil sketches toward the back showing through the paper from the scans you can print them and then soak.
made years ago and I want to recreate, cannot find the diagram or name of the shape anywhere
>>625093man that's cool it doesn't even seem possible
>>625095No problem.
>>625093the 3d paper jew
Cool
>>625098Oh no I see it too
I got this action figure used for cheap. He was missing his vest so I made him one out of orange cardstock and rubber cement. It's a very amateurish job but I am still proud of it
>>627899>>627890Thanks guys
>>627821Very nifty, it worked out great Anon.
Not an origami person but I respect the craftsmanship, sick vest!
Looks great.
>>627821fuck yeah dude, i'm glad to see this. it adds tons of personality. fits pretty much perfectly on him.
Hello guys, what happens?I would like you to help me choose a good role of origami, I want to raise my level (Very complex figures) and do complex things but here in Colombia it is impossible to find good quality or special role for origami.A friend in the USA will soon come and can bring me paper. I want to know which one should buy according to my needs.I will put options that I have in mind. My friend is in Florida.
De los de la foto, te recomiendo el #7, el #3 y el tant (#1).¿Has utilizado alguna vez algún papel "especial"? ¿Cuál ha sido el modelo más complejo que has plegado? Porque también depende mucho de esto anterior. Pues, por ejemplo, estos papeles no te servirían para plegar modelos complejos o muy complejos, como los de Shuki Kato o Kamiya (tal vez solo para practicar), pues el papel se va desgastando y "lastimando".Te recomiendo mejor, buscar "duo thai", Unryu (mulberry), shadow fold, alios kraft, tissue foil, hanji, satogami, momigami... Papeles de preferencia, artesanales hechos a mano, como los de la. Tiemds de Nicolas Terry o Pham Hoang Tuan.Si te puedo ayudar en algo más, escríbeme a arellanoarturo636(arroba)gmail.com
>>628117Make your own paper.
You should try making "double tissue" with regular tissue paper and wallpaper paste (or pure methyl cellulose if you can get it). There's lots of different techniques for making it, and shouldn't be hard to find video tutorials. For fancier stuff, I'm not too sure what's around in Colombia but you could look for mulberry fiber papers at art supply stores. You can make those kinds of papers fold very nicely if you treat them with methyl cellulose or wallpaper paste (the same way as you make double tissue).
If so could I please have it
