I need help in folding the Bahamut by Satoshi Kamiya in step 147 to step 168.

Thanks

Hello!

Bahamut advice needed here! I'm having trouble in steps 167-172. Some part of the head seems to fold to the left, but which one? Is it the sink that opens?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

And risenfromdeath (..you post is quite old, but I'll answer nevertheless.) In 147 the head part will be created. It says, "fold and unfold", right? ( If we have the same edition in our hands!) You just make the creases, and unfold to a previous step in 152. The rest is pretty logical.

For steps 167 to 172, it's just an open sink and out. The only difference is that you have to change the corner of the sink to the reference point (circled on the diagram). Hope that helps. Oh, and put pictures of your Bahamuts when you will have finished them .

Thanks for the help, Sunburst. I managed to move on forward.

where are the diagrams? can't find them on the net..

They are in the book "Works of Satoshi Kamiya". If you want them, you have to buy the book.

Yo, i need help with steps... 135 to about 143 then from 161-172

been 4 days

Here's a photodiagram for 135-143. Then give 161-172 a try again.

Ask if you need any more clarification.

i need help on step 104. it says "fold the top left corner to the right, while pulling out the complex of layers"

what complex of layers is he refering to?



i may have screwed something up on step 103 but it looks just like in the book


anyone know what to do???

ough....found them. will check back when another problem arises

sorry to bother you guys but it seems, i can't go past step 106 now.

and i tryed this one

Hmm, well what you do in 106 is pull the two layers apart, realeasing paper in between. For 107 and 108, you're folding this paper inwards and crimping it. It's difficutly to explain in words or diagram... but maybe this helped. I dont' have time to make a photodiagram as of now, we'll see. Give it another try first.

And for future note, use the 'edit button' to modify your old posts instead of triple-posting.

so what i do is like a sink or something? so that the edge is now inside?

sorry for triple posting, didn't see the edit buton.

No, you're valley-folding the paper on the edge (that you've pulled out) inwards.
