Walking in the rain cp help by Obelisk

the part im having trouble with is the part to the top left of the hair, and to the right of the umbrella part on the crease pattern. It seems like the point is split to make a handle for the umbrella, but if you fold it true to the cp it looks nothing like the base. Then for shaping it seems like a point is missing, you can use that flap to make the handle for the umbrella, but then you wont have the long piece of hair on the left side, and vis versa. Any help is appreciated! If not I'll just use the flap to make the umbrella handle and be missing a piece of hair but it should still look good. Thanks!

I could be wrong, but I believe the umbrella handle is at the bottom left, next to the sleeve. It is attached to the hand, and points up. As you can see in the base, the two long flaps on the left and right of the head become two long strands of hair.
This is an intruiging model, I will try it when I get a chance.

Thanks for the reply! Ahh i think you're right! the left arm flap is longer than the right by 1 unit, i thought this was a design flaw and he hid the extra unit with a reverse fold, I'll finish shaping it and post pics!

This is one of Obelisk easiest anime characters...id like to see more of his human figures attempted..the lotus lady is a favourite of mine...his c.ps are never too over styled but his shaping is exemplary literally summoning the wood spirit into the piece
