How to make the origami Devil Dragon v3
Designed by Jo Nakashima (01/2021)
Difficulty level: complex
Paper: 30cm x 30cm red tissue-foil
This is a new version of the origami Devil Dragon with the improvements from de Dragon v3. It has a better structure compared to the original version, a longer neck and tail. The face, hands and wings are the same from version 1.
Paper
I recommend using a large sheet of paper (at least 30cm x 30cm), otherwise some of the details will be difficult to make. It’s doable with standard origami paper, but I recommend higher quality papers like red tissue-foil for best results. The white side of the paper is visible at the snout and wings, so you might prefer using paper with color on both sides.
Diagrams
Notice: at first I’ve made these diagrams only for the video, not to be published separately. For this reason, some transitions or steps might not be so clear. If you find some step difficult, you can find more detailed instructions in the video tutorial.
