When I was 10 yo, I got an amazing origami book where I learned about origami "purism" philosophy - always using only one square sheet of paper, no cuts and no glue. What do you think about those self-imposed limitations for aesthetic reasons?
>>
>>620948
that is literally what origami is. what do you mean self-imposed?

anything else is kirigami / paper craft.
>>
>>620970
It's a fairly modern convention. There are a number of traditional models that contain cuts.
>>
>>620970
What >>620972 said. Plus, folding non-square rectangular or other shapes of paper (triangles, pentagons, ...) is also origami (like money bills, teabag or chopstick wrappings, ...)
>>
And to answer OP, I think self-restriction sometimes makes it more difficult to create - something like Kamiya's Ryujin from a square could more easily be obtained from a long rectangular string - but sometimes makes it easier - common bases, more symmetry, diagonals being medians, etc.

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.

how did you do it

>>620845
the bind is just really good glue and gauze, i slashed the pages with razor to let the glue seep in, left it to dry for a day basically, then sticked the gauze onto it, then the cover onto the gauze
probably the easiest way to do it with this many pages

since you folded two, unfold one gently and lay it out flat .Either press it down under a book then take a photo like that .

>Most easy diagrams are too boring and done too quickly
>Most hard diagrams are impossible with most origami paper

Anybody have books or diagrams that require more than your basic origami skills, yet don't require very fine paper to complete? Some of the easier diagrams from amazing origami is what I'm looking for.

instead of asking for c.p ask about the paper ,a number of easily sourced papers of between 15gsm up to 50gsm is suitabe for intermediate models of up to 200 steps ,even some thin gift wrap . Kraft paper in packs of 25-5- or on the roll just be sure its the recycled type .As the kraft paper for packaging is thicker and tends to rip

Really retarded question here.

I have new newest 5.0.18 version of Pepakura Designer. When I try the “add outline padding” version for the print-out, the color is fucked. Fist of all, why the hell are the flaps a greyish color? It looks horrid. And because of that greyish color of the flaps, when I add color in the flaps as well, it doesn’t show me the right color, but a blurred-out color that is not ok to print at all.

I have always used Desinger 4 and wanted to upgrade to 5 now. And in 4 the outline padding color works just fine. The “upgraded” version has this shit now. Am I missing an option in the options menu? Because I did try every option out there, clicking and unclicking, seeing if there was something in the colors setting, but I haven’t found anything.

No colored flaps is NOT an option. Should not be for anybody, because you can make much smoother papercrafts with a 0,5mm margin of error and you don’t need to color-out the white specks if you don’t glue it on precisely. This is not acceptable. And should not be for Tamasoft making this fucked-up 5 designer “option” you can’t get rid of?

Can anybody help me on how to remove the flap color in Pepakura 5 please?
>>
>>617107
I have version 5.0.13, I have never had that problem, if you say it is the current version, it would be better not to update, but for my part, try downgrading to that version.
>>
>>617107
yeah I'm on 5 too and not having this problem

send the PDO and ill see if it does it to me when I add flap color
>>
>>617110
>>617108

What version do you have?

I directly installed 5.0.18, then cracked it with the offset and then inputet the serial code from the net that are generated. I use Win10, updated to latest updates as well.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that I cracked it? Or maybe it's only a .18 feature?
