The Origami Forum

Hello everyone!

I've always hated making tissue-foil, mostly because I could never make it without all the "air-bubbles" and creases. A couple of days ago I found out how to do it VERY fast and VERY smooth, with -zero- crumples!

After I spray the foil, I wrap the tissue around a board (my faithful cutting mat!), and then simply put the board on the foil with the tissue-wrapped side facing down.

I it wasn't clear enough, I've put pictures on my site, in the Tips sections

thanks for the tip, I used it today making Tissue Foil I'll let you see the final results later, Im making the Triceratops from Origami Fantasy (Kuuso Origami )

and my buddy is making Nick Terry Ghost monk w/stick.

I use a vaguely similar method. I wrap the tissue (or unryu, or whatever) around a cardboard tube. After spraying the foil I can then roll the tissue onto it.

I finished the triceratops and the monk is yet to be made. But I used the tissue foil method to make paper for engel's heart with an arrow. Pictures soon because camera is comming soon.
