Hi all
I am a 3rd year graphic design student at derby and need to make an origami rhino. I have the Ronald Khon instructions and have managed to get to number 26 which I can't seem to get past. I really need some help so if anyone has any tips or hints that could help me I would be very greatful

hi judy, nice model to try.

it is a multi-folds manouver, so I'd suggest face it step by step, first change the horizontal mountain folds to valley

then fold the delta below

then fold the vertical delta over

finally move right the top layer

and ta da!...

(not bad for the first time yeah?). Good luck

hi judy

never mind. send me the picture in a Private Message (PM links here below, between PROFILE and WWW)

here is a picture of the paper before starting the step, maybe you can compare it with yours

luck

Sending pictures with private messages works exactly the same like posting pictures on the Forum, so if anyone doesnÂ´t know how to post it here, he/she wonÂ´t be able to do it on a private message.

As an alternative to Koh's Rhino there is another at: http://www.fishgoth.com/origami/anidiag.html (The Webmaster and creator is on the forums here under the name "fishgoth" I believe). Its not particularly easy over the other though.

Thanks for the thought Joe The white
I had a look at that one and it looks even harder especially for me as I have no experience of origami until now but cheers anyway
