This is my second attempt on the pig! This time, I did the close sinks better and used pink paper- though that is clouded by the lighting.

Nice nose in the air attitude and shaping.

Can you try a different room with different lights, so we can see the pink paper ?

It should be a white flap, that makes a right angle. In step 27, on the right, It looks like its just a measurement, but it is actually the flap. Sorry, if this doesn't help.

Thanks! Anyway, I took a photo without lighting at night. Think I'll take one in the day to make the pink stand out more.

Step 26 Pulled out Flap

Post by HankSimon »

>>>Which Flap is pulled out in Step 26 ?

1. Way back in Step 5, the Flap on the bottom is the one we're pulling out.
2. In Step 26, there are 3 Flaps, the two, thinner outside flaps on each will turn into the ears. We will focus on the Middle Flap only.
3. Sub-Steps of Step 26:
A. Partially open back to Step 25
B. The Middle Flap was Valley Folded in half, when you folded the whole model in half in Step 25.
C. Now reverse the fold in only the Middle Flap into a Mountain Fold. In order to complete this action, you will have to re-close the whole model.

Shazam ! Step 26 should be complete and should look like the picture Step 27...

Let us know if that doesn't work.....

Thanks I got it... I know this will sound really silly but I thought that the bit that looks like _l on the right of the diagram in the next step was two lines pointing to something. I just realised that this is actually the border of the white coloured flap.

Noob mistake lol

My pig without lighting...
It was night time, so the pink paper ended up looking like kraft paper.

Anyway, I'm gonna fold another one, this time with orange paper! I'll shape the ears this time as well.

Great model, Quentin, by the way! I've been a silent fan of yours for a while now and am awaiting your book expectantly.

Great rendition and shaping, Sara, though the paper is quite crumpled. Still, well done! I'm a fan of Quentin too!

I like the contrast. It looks like you blew him up... by blowing in his nose :-)

I would like to know Quentin's technique for dry shaping his pig with such very smooth sides.

Here is mine, first try. I like this simple models where the shapping is the key for a good looking finished model.
