Agreed. There are TONS of articles on CP collapsing here but that still doesn't make up for experience: practice, practice, practice. XeniX has even kindly shown a step by step PHOTO diagram of the collapsing process. I'm not trying to discourage you. Just give it another shot I'm sure you can do it. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Here's some clues.hobbestheprince wrote:What I still can't understand is how you know which are the valley-folds and which are mountain-folds from the crease pattern. I've read just about everything there is to read about crease-patterns, and I don't get how you guys are doing this.
The bottom part of the model, first crease from the edge of the paper is a mountain fold, then goes valley, mountain and valley into the middle. The diamond in the middle is mountain folds around the edge. Look carefully at the middle, and there's a kind of waterbomb base going on. . Bash away! It CAN be done, and YOU can do it. One day

Dwarf instructions
Whilst I agree it is a relatively easy CP, sometimes you need that extra help. To this end, I've nearly finished a photgraphic guide. It will help you get the basic shape sorted, highlighting what I consider to be key steps, but the wet folding and finishing will be down to you.
It should be up in about a week or so, after its been proofed and tested by one of my folding friends.
Ideally it will be a PDF, but it may be a Word file initially until I can get to a PC that lets me do a decent conversion. God, I wish I had indesign...
And, of course, it will be free!

I believe that there are free PDF converters available, altho quality varies by use.

Google free convert PDF ... or remove the word "free" to see lots.

I use PDFcreator to convert any document to PDF file.
It's free!
After installing the PDFcreator you can use it as a printer. Just choose the PDF creator as the printer and "print" PDF file.

This is a dwarf I folded.

By the way, can anyone help me figure out the Cp of the dwarf playing the trombone:

I see that Gonzalospinettte was successful in making a similar model, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get in touch with him to get more info about the model and how he made the Cp of this model..

Hi all. I just stumbled across this forum while working on Joisel's dwarf. With a little help from this thread, I managed to fold it. Thanks to everyone who posted advice!

I did the dwarf with the cp of http://www.ericjoisel.com/creating.html.
the variations
I molded the face in order that the expression is obvious. I did the skirt seeing the photos of the dwarf.
