Hello!

I am from Austria and my English is not really good. But i have a big problem with a English origami instruction for a Butterfly. My problem is, that i didn't understand the instruction of the butterfly. So i want to ask all of you,...can someone test the instruction for me and can send me a finished picture of it,....because i need it for a magic trick...and there i need a origami butterfly that can flapping his wings.....!

It seems to be the model shown at http://members.aol.com/davidpetty/mom36.htm

Or if not check http://www.itsjustabitofpaper.com/Diagr ... flyred.pdf this last one includes cutting but it can give you an idea

Good luck
