You can fill a jar up with paper stars, its a cute room decor item.
>>621412Tried this a while ago and my hands started cramping bad after 20ish stars. Can't do this shit no more.
>>621428kek, my stars turned out so crappy. they look like blobs after doing it for 2 hours.
Are you supposed to cut out the text "make your own star"?
why is making paper stars so addictingi can fill up an entire evening folding strips and listening to tunes
Ive done some basic stuff and i want to learn more advanced stuff in origami as a project. What books are good for that?
Search no more mi friend, i started with this book (Im still finishing/reading it) and i consider it a good start: https://ia803201.us.archive.org/1/items/genuine-origami-jun-maekawa-2008/Genuine%20Origami%20%20%5BJun%20Maekawa%5D%20%5B2008%5D.pdf
>>611090this so much.
>>614560I didn't have good experience with this book. The theory is nice, teaching techniques and essential ideas in progressively more complex models. But a lot of the models, in my experience, even simpler ones can be too disappointing/challenging. I mean this book is supposedly written for beginners. I just checked gilad page, reviewing from memory:1. squirrel - the example photo and the one in diagram is different, so your result won't look the same as Jun Maekawa's2. box - "locks" and bullshit don't work. I honestly have no idea how to make this properly without glue3. spiral shell - good luck making everything aligned4. giraffe - I really dislike this one, dunno, the fact you fold the back and hide it behind really annoys me5. helmet - good luck making this stand, even gilad couldn't do it, fuck this model seriouslyI think I dropped the book a few models after this. I kept hitting problems that I blame on subpar models. I decided just to fold stuffs I find interesting from /po/. Not following Maekawa's curriculum. I'm much happier now. I just don't think the book is good recommendation for beginners. -----John Montroll's Teach Yourself Origami's first half has all of the essential models they used to teach in schools.
Try to follow this plan to become a successful folder . 1 .Sonobe .2 . Kusudama .3 tessellation .These are good because very repetitive folds practice makes foolproof and you can use glue for assemblyThen 4 .Beetle . 5 .Fish . 6 .Spider .7 scorpion 8 . Butterfly two colours .9 .Bee two coloursThen try some simple characters .After that you should be familiar enough with diagrams and precrease to attempt more complex models such as birds dragons .
>>619941wrong board, scipo
No Stencil thread? What has happened to /po/ ?
>>620127Just an idea but wouldn't making a silk screen fix this? It takes a bit more effort and money to make but I think the effect would be cool.
This looked fun so I tried it, does this have any glaring issues?
Moar stencils
>>621823Since the janny deleted my other post showing it more straightforwardly, don't forget you can use a paint bucket tool to identify islands.
I hate it but I still love her with all my heart.
>>622054And rightfully so..that Looks good..
>>622054That's a fine looking work, especially if she's standing and stable, without the need for support
>>622054if you did that by eyeballing every piece of paper cut out, i'm impresseddid you colour everything with crayon?
I got this picture of a few pins badges representing animals, possibly origami models (that's probably the intended effect).Any of you know if they are origami models and not just polygon-shaped animals?And if they are origami, any idea of who the creators are?
I don't recognize those, I suspect they're just meant to look like origami without being based on real designs.That said, the koala looks a bit like Gen Hagiwara's and the fox reminds me of one by Hoang Tien Quyet
>>622075Thanks for your answer. I'll try to find pictures of those two models you talked about.
My stuffSay nice things about it
>>615798Thats some nice stuff.
>>615798Wow this looks just so cool! !I like the Gura's one specially
>>615798I came to say mean stuff but that's super nice and clean, lots of variation and a dedicated shelf. Shit son I wish I was half as dedicated to anything. Good work!
pretty good job
>>615798 How much time did you spend for this? This is a very cool origami
even now there is hope for /m/anbut this is /po/ so lets ee 'em
>>616527I've posted this before but here is 5GB of mecha papercraftsPart 1:https://mega.nz/file/XFEATCwA#grTaRziOebKr-vHIyt4UhhKCOm1UUwR7FDeyYb3AuFgPart 2:https://mega.nz/file/WY1wVAbD#yY4CIn1j8sBt8AmLUu8WWelngPBj8ysTmuPKpTfFHMIEnjoy!
>>616544Nice anonThanks
Does anyone have any Ideon or Xabungle patterns?
yooo its so cool
Hello, this topic is for people to make "public" exchanges, that is, post a file publicly and the other person posts another, so that everyone can download it. For example, I have Origami Double and I want to exchange it for Marine origami. If anyone posts Marine origami publicly I will post Origami Double the same way. Thanks for understanding.
Yo, dat midearth origamin yo? So yea if u could ups em 3. Thanx
>>621244Problem is any1 that has that book (it s called The best paper folding series 4) most likely already got Dinosaurs and Katsuta books. Good luck tough.
i was on Origami Abraham's twitter and he wrote that this magazine sometimes has origami tutorials , but google translate couldn't tell me which issues .
>>620236available on kobo dot com as an e-book , but for someone unwilling to pay $5 dollars to expand their library , i doubt you can afford it
>>621819It's also available right under the request made for this book for free.
Hi, I'd put this information before, but I think that thread had been eliminated. But one more time, and sorry for all you :( Do anyone have that book? Could anyone shared in this thread? Thanks for your atention
Why isn't anyone using papercraft as skin for 3D printed stuff?
>>620992No. Encasing it in expanding foam is though.
>>619810That must have took forever lol.You have to glue together tabs at every connection?I don't understand the 3D printing part.Is it to give structure to the paper?
>>620001what was the issue with wireframes?
>>619855how? what material do you use for these? i cant imagine just paper being strong enough
>>620973Prints of this size are limited by dimentions of print area. While ppl do print lifesize figurines they have to turn model into large number of parts and fit them together post print. While I can't deny difference in methods might seem silly, building doll by gluing plastic bricks together doesn't do it for me.>>621383If you mean cardboard assembly I worked on I paper doll thread I had only partial succes as I have not included any marking on parts which made fitting it together more or less guess work. Pepakura can be forced to work with model set of parts clipping throuhg one another at 90° angles but doesn't provide any way to mark where and how those parts intersect.
What paper do you guys use for your origami?And what is your favorite paper?
Just sharing this Kangaroo model I just made.
>>621830This stuff(pic related) is my most used as far anything that requires any larger paper with colors. It arrives perfectly square and it's cheap. There is better paper I've used, but it's usually for special models. I think my favorite so far is shadowfold. It's thin and easy to use.
I use car paint masking paper for more complex models.it's strong, thin, keeps it's shape and it's dead cheap.
I've always admired people who can do these things. It's impressive dexterity and a performance just watching it and the results can be so beautiful and tacticle too. Crazy the talent I can see browsing this board. Making me consider trying it so it's interesting to see what papers people are using.
Hemp paper
In remembrance of the last paper planes thread, which just so happened to be one of the oldest boards on 4chan that passed away quite recently, this thread will serve as its successor. Hopefully this thread won't be prematurely bumped into oblivion like the last one did.Anyways, this thread could serve as a sort of "Paper Planes General". Feel free to post your designs, .pdf files, and folding instructions. Anything goes as long as it flies or at least looks like its supposed to.
