Buttercup?

Post by silverlinkx2 »

I've looked through tons of books and online, but I can not find a diagram to make a Buttercup flower. I've seen diagrams for just about every flower out there, but nothing for a buttercup. I need a good quality diagram too, like something you'd see out of

Do any of you know any good places to start? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Buttercup, Daffodil, Narcissus ?

Post by HankSimon »

I assume that you are looking for Daffodils. You can also look for Narcissus, I my guess is correct.

See:

Does that help ?

Yes! That's it. Perfect. Although it's 5 petals, not 4 :P

Also, I don't think the daffodils will work, they seem to be pointed petals and buttercups have round petals. I wouldn't normally be picky but I'm asking because I want to make a bouquet of them for my girlfriend and her favorite flower is the buttercup, so I want it to look as close as possible to the real thing.
