I have found very nice looking models, yet I cannot read the language in which they are written in . If possible, could someone give me a translation of these diagrams?

Snail, Duck, Scorpion, Peacock and Heron

Hi Cupcake,

I thought the instructions were pretty much clear without explanation....the mountain and valley folds are marked well and also the squash folds etc. If you start folding one of the models and have problem with any step, do write back.

Your rabbit design is very nice. You should fold one with pink paper and place in on a bed of grass....it would look so real.

Okay, I will try doing these diagrams, but they are quite confusing...
PS: Look for your request (Pink Bunny) On the "What have you folded lately" topic

Hey Cupcake,

That's Hebrew and I've yet to find a web interface that translates Hebrew. But paperz' point is well taken - they are admirably clear diagrams.

Babylon-http://www.babylon.com/affiliates/landi ... 1&lang=eng Can translete Hebrew to English and me too
Just ask about any one of the models or any step and I'll be happy to help.

Thank you all. I am going to start folding them now. PS: Paperz, look here and here

step 2, 3 & 4 is just folding a birdbase, is it not?

Yes ,step 5 is the bird base.

Step 24 of the Duck... I have part 1 done, but I need help with the rest. Done Snail

The step 24 has many folds involved. The fold B is an inside reverse fold....once you do it, the model looks like shown in the top-right- hand corner. Inside reverse fold again as shown in bottom-right-hand corner. The result is shown on bottom-left-hand corner.

Next fold the 'E' part under the 'F' part to finish the tail. The next step (25) is basically shaping the duck once you finish all these folds.

Your rabbit looks very cute in pink. The paper colored with a crayon...innovative!

Pictures (remember, these are first attempts made with copy paper, so don't be expecting much )-

They're raiding my computer!
Thank you everybody for offering to help BTW:Paperz, your information didn't really help me, but thanks for trying. I eventually figured it out

Sorry Cupcake....would you be able to explain how you did that step (24)? Your models though in copy paper, look excellent! Especially the duck and peacock

After part 1 there is an enlarged view of the tail. Then you mountain fold and valley fold, as shown and then fold part E behind part F (Then repeat on other side)

Note: Sadly, the duck and peacock each only have one foot, so they usually have to be propped up against something.

This is the site I use for Hebrew to English, its not perfect but it allows you to enter the letters of the Hebrew alphabet easily (just click the symbol and it will appear in the conversion box).

This is diagrams is simple, and you can fold this models use only pictures of folding.
Good Luck.
