Sea Turtle Guide

[Stylus]

Got the diagrams (more of a CP guide really), thanks. Actually they are the ones by Nguyen Hung Cuong. Now I have to see if I can fold from them.
I went to another college famous for marine biology: College of the Atlantic in Maine. It's best known for its whale studies. I focused on birds though.

Cheers,
Stylus

Hi guys

I stuck step 100 ; anbody has info please share here...

[Trouble]

step 100 is not a pleat its just moving the other pleat over

[Pop pop]

this may sound stupid but i really dont get the bottom crease on step 8

[Pop pop]

never mind

I need helps with steps 77-92 on the diagrams.
i just don't understand what i am supposed to do, and i have wasted 1 sheet of paper on this already.
Can someone translate the japanese or just explain to me what to do?

[bethnor]

i don't think the japanese says anything special. you are essentially forming the ridges of the shell with these steps. it is in fact very similar to the formation of the spines for kawahata's stegosaurus from origami fantasy, steps 26-29, except harder because the paper is locked on either side. use a 50 cm sheet and make sure your mountains are mountains and valleys are valleys. precrease step 71 on all the pleats you will need to do right away; the model becomes progressively locked each time you do steps 77-88, and it becomes harder to spread the layers.

thanks, bethnor.
i'll try that once my other sheet of paper gets here, i rage quit and burnt what i had done after several days of fiddling with those steps.

Been working hard on trying to successfully make Satoshi Kamiya's Loggerhead Sea turtle with the diagrams found in the Origami Tanteidan Convention 16 book. Unfortunately I can only make it up to step 78, then I'm lost. I don't quite understand how to do steps 79 and 80.
Please, if anyone has folded this model before, can you tell me how to do those two steps? Pictures would be helpful, possibly just some descriptive steps will do.

Thank you!
