DIY origami paper fox – three schemes
Isn't it time we added some new ones to the paper zoo?inhabitants? Today, an origami fox will add to the collection of animal figures. We will tell you about 3 types of folding of the cunning forest beauty, the more interesting it will be to collect a whole fox family, where each toy will be unique. Take an orange, preferably double-sided, colored sheet and a black marker to draw a cunning muzzle for the fox. You won’t need more. Now watch carefully how to make a fox out of paper in no time.
Paper chanterelle: option 1 - simple toy
Even little kids can make their first paper fox.The following patterns will be more complicated, the more interesting it will be to tinker with them. We will need a square sheet of paper of a suitable color. You can make it from white office paper, and then color your animal or entrust this activity to children. Then fold the paper step by step:
- Fold the square of the sheet diagonally, then fold it in half along one of the bends into an isosceles triangle;
- Sharp angles of the resulting triangle bend to the obtuse angle. See Fig. 1, the step-by-step instruction in the pictures will not allow making mistakes;
- Now fold the workpiece in half from yourself. Having seized all 3 "walking" corners, bend them to yourself, focusing on the vertical axis of the convolution;
- Then lay curled corners - the extreme will be the ears, a twin central area, expand the (inside) and prozhmite forming snout fox of paper;
- Fold inside a tail of colored paper, through which the chanter becomes stable. Origami fox is ready, it remains to draw her eyes and nose.
This is what you should get:
Fox from paper: variant 2 - Japanese fox
Do you want to know how to make an origami fox inclassic Japanese technique? Everything is incredibly simple: by analogy with the first simple version of the toy. Here you will also need a square of paper. Scheme 2 converges with the first instruction in points 1-2, then this origami fox is folded a little differently. Follow the steps, first repeat points 1 and 2 (the previous simple fox craft from a square), and then:
- Unbend to yourself not the "walking" corners, but the strip of the plane from this side (as shown in figure 2). So you ask the "paws" of the cunning animal;
- Then unfold the muzzle of the fox from the middle corner, straighten the ears and arbitrarily bend the tail part, so that the fox origami stood confidently, draw a chanterelle from the paper.
We did it again! Hurray!
Paper fox: option 3 - volumetric complex toy
Ready to learn how to make a paper fox?with your own hands, so that the animal is as similar to a real animal as possible? Then let's proceed to the analysis of the 3rd (most difficult) scheme. It shows us how to make an origami fox with detailed anatomical elaboration of body parts. The scheme is not easy, but you will be able to be proud of yourself if you still manage to cope with the intricate folding technique. So:
- Fold a sheet of paper out of the horizontal orientationSo that its lateral faces converge in the center, then the stock of origami from paper should be sharpened both from below and from above. To do this, bend inwards all 4 corners of the convolution, then expand them (you need to label the faces);
- Lower corner "pockets" open from the inside (both) and squeeze on the plane. But the upper corners should not be opened, but turned inside (both). Did you manage? We make a toy made of paper for children;
- Upper corners (future ears) we bend to ourselves,Focusing on a groove. The ears must be folded back to themselves, reducing the formed regular triangle. Ears overwhelm one after another (see Figure 3);
- The upward angles of the bottom edge bend downwards,Fold the bundle in half (marking the center axis) and return it to its previous position. On the axis, fold the structure with a step (accordion), as shown in Fig. 3. The lower part now slightly overlaps the top. Angles of the step we bend to ourselves;
- He turns the package down with his face and bends to him the head of the future fox - the top corner of the workpiece. Next, make yourself a limb-separators of the front paws from the rear (see Figure 3 carefully);
- Acting strictly according to the scheme, systematically formDetails - paws, three-dimensional muzzle, tail. First, the origami chanterelle will appear angular, but then it will find spectacular final outlines. You can watch the video, if you understand the scheme is difficult.
A voluminous fox is not made from cardboard - it's difficulthold the shape of the workpiece. If you have mastered how to make a fox according to scheme 3, you can easily make origami animal figures of any complexity from paper. For example, you can easily make a classic Japanese crane or an amazing paper frog that jumps or opens its mouth. Didn't understand how to make an origami fox, but still want to make a toy for your child from colored paper? Use a ready-made template (Fig. 4). Here you don't have to bother with how to make a fox. Everything is simple: print out the finished drawing, cut out the details along the contour and assemble the funny fox with glue. It couldn't be easier.
