Langkos Rabbit

Post by fege »

Theres a CP of Langkos Rabbit and I had no Problem finishing the base but somehow the headgives me some problems in case of shaping, so i would be glad if someone could help me with that.
And a second question concerning the rabbit: Is the model back-opened?
Origami ftw! ;D

I have the second question too. However, mine's Belly-opened.

For the head, you need to (I think) make a crimp fold making the big long open-sinked flap pointing towards the belly. Then you can make two Outside-reverses and in the second, release some paper for the eyes. Then squash-fold the eyes. For the ear's they're pretty easy. You can figure it out yourself. :wink:

If I understand what you said correctly that is pretty much all wrong... Yes from the collapsed base the model is closed back and open belly. But through shaping you close the belly as well. The base in its self isn't as simple as it seems... Depending on the order you collapse the creases depends on the way the flap arrangement comes out... So that is probably another reason why shaping is difficult because the flaps (mainly back legs, tail and stomach) are most likely collapse wrong. I know for a fact that sr123ification collapsed the base incorrectly. If you could post a picture of your collapsed base maybe I can help some more. This is a model that is more tricky than it seems and will be hard to explain without making diagrams or photo-diagrams... neither which I plan on doing. But if you could please post progress pictures that will be great and Ill try and give some further advice :)

I guess it's not as easy as I thought.

Good job but you've folded the arms wrong. :P

You actually need to make a simple Rabbit-ear with all the layers attached in the flap you petal-folded. :P

EDIT: Oh and, The front side is the back side and the back side is the front side. (Hope I'm right)

I said that the Front side is the inside of the rabbit and the back side is the Front view on your picture. Got it?

And the two petal-folded flaps on the front side are supposed to be Rabbit-ears, not Petal Folds. Hence the "missing line" on the CP. :wink:

Lol, why would you be annoying? We're just helping you out!

Anyway, valley-fold the side which you call "Front side" in half. Clear?

And ask all you want. We'll always help you out someway or another. :)
