Turning Flower Base into Bird Base for Origami Dragon
Now we have our flower base here and what we are going to do is turn this to a bird base. So if you look down here on our table here you can see just how it looks. If you open it up it is all squished inside like this like a little napkin. What we are going to do is take the opening that we have here and we are going to fold it to this center crease that we have already created. We want to make sure that everything stays really good and tight cause if it doesn't then it would create problems for us later. Like so. Smash this down, here we go, do the other side. Make sure it meets up in line with the other one. There we go. Now what we are going to do is we are going to open this like this and we are going to pull it open this top sheet like so and the crease is going to be form right here where we made our initial bends right here. As we pull it up these pieces would naturally going to lay down like so. Once again just work it to where it wants to work and make sure we get our corner tight. We are going to stop and repeat it on the other side.
