Creating Fins for Origami Manatee

Now that our fish base is finished, we are going to go ahead and fish start with the fins. If you look down here you can see what we are going to do here is we are going to take this. We are going to prefold this one and we are going to fold it like this. Now this part is not like this, this part is actually going to be down and this is kind of like a reverse dog ear almost. So you fold it out like so or first rabbit ear however you want to look at it. So how we are going to go about this is we are just going to kind of take this guy and fold it down here like so and crease it back up all the way to this side here. You are kind of opening this up into a crease like so. After that is done you just want to take and pull it back. As we pull this side open, this side is going to come up so we would just let it do that. What we are going to do is just work it to meet this end here. There we go and we would work it down here and meet it on this end as well. As you can see right here, this just needs to be folded over. We would work it and make sure that we get this corner good and perfect just like so.
