Jar Jar Binks 1.1
This is still a preliminary version of the head of Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars Episode 1. I'm trying to develop a more sophisticated version with longer ears and better eyes. It is already improved in regard to the folding sequence. |
You have to start with a fishbase. If you are using two-coloured paper, the colour of the skin should be outside, colour of eyes and inside of ears should be inside.
Mountain Fold
The mountain fold is formed by folding the paper away from oneself.
Symbol: alternating dashed and dotted line
Squash Fold
Prefold both sheets of paper along the valley and mountain fold. Then open the model, fold one layer of paper along the valley fold and flatten the model using the mountain fold.
The big white arrow tells you to open the model.
Valley Fold
The valley fold is formed by folding the paper toward oneself. An arrow shows where to fold the piece of paper to.
Symbol: dashed line
(Inside) Reverse Fold
Prefold both sheets of paper in both directions (mountain and valley). Then open the model a little bit and bring the top point down so that the mountain fold edge becomes a valley fold edge.
Repeat on the other side.

Sink Fold
The sink fold is a method of blunting a point that has no open edges. The fold should first be precreased. Then carefully open the model and tuck the point inside. Flatten the model afterwards along existing creases.
