The Origami Forum

The maneuver that is used in the blintz frog base is kind of confusing for some people and the question has been asked a few times here, most notably for Charles Esseltine's dragon. I made a video to explain it so that I could link to it in future threads. The video is at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DrHFj4cbKc

I once made a crane variation out of that base. Theres 2 heads and 2 tails, but you can make it look like 4 cranes

The blintz frog base is very versatile. It has been used for beetles, dragons, monsters, etc.

Noboru Miyajima's Knight on Pegasus uses a small variation of it
