Make An Origami Dragon
Choose foil paper for your origami dragon and always begin folding with the foil side down so that your design will feature the foil.
Pre-fold the paper wherever needed prior to completing major folds. This eliminates the danger of missing a fold when you need it.
Fold your origami paper to the bird base, one of the most common preliminary folds in origami. From the bird base many animals are actually formed.
Crimp-fold the upper corners down towards the longer spokes at the bottom. Make the two folds even on either side and press firmly.
Sink the center of the top fold in towards the crimp folds.
Fold the wings into position above the legs, head and tail. At this time you should also crimp fold the jaw upwards into place.
Make the legs by creating double rabbit ears. Bend them towards the front and the back of the dragon.
Create mountain and valley folds on the wings and the tail. This will give the dragon a more three-dimensional look as well as help protect the wings from bending.
