I hope they helped and you were able to finish the model. It is a great one to practice wet folding.

Those are joisel gnomes. I have always loved his models, such a shame he did not publish more of the crease patterns before he died (not that they could be reproduced by anyone but the master). Those are based on the bootleg pattern that uses 3rds.

Hey guys, i know stephan webers bull is fairly an old model. I am having the toughest time trying to get the bulls ears and horns correctly. The diagrams on the origami tanteidan steps are hard to see. I envy all who had finished folding the amazing bull. I've tried lookig at other peoples finished bull to see how its folded. I've watched youtube by origami live repeatedly. Im currently using printer paper to pratice. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Basically you are pleating the top layer to form the horn..
so its nothing more than a simple pleat

Okay , the pic in the next step in the diagram made me think that it is something like a rabbit-ear,

I will try it again.

Thank you..

Hi All...

I am back with this model...
It has been a while since I last folded anything...so I am going to retry this amazing bull :-)

I reliazed, that I am still stuck at the step 13-14...maybe that was the reason why I stopped folding that bull :-P

Well....I am now motivated again...
The picture posted above was deleted somehow...
Hope someone can help me to pass that step :-)

Cheers,

Hi! Sorry for the late reply. Looks like you found the solution as I was folding the model! :P

I'm sure yours is the same, but maybe these pictures still help. Let me know if you have any questions!
