Help me with the Eastern Dragon

Post by Shrodinger »

Hello, I need help with the "Eastern Dragon" of Joseph Wu. I don't know how to make the legs. You can see them on the 4th page in the second picture. I'm not very good at Origami, so please help me anyone. Here is the link for the diagram:

If anybody want to help me, leave a post here OR write me to my ICQ. You can find my number at the profile.

PS: Sorry for bad english

I can see why you would be having problems. Those steps are probably the hardest steps in those diagrams.
It's been a while since I folded this, but I'll try my best to help you. Open up the body around where it shows, with the lines you precreased in step 16. Follow the mines that it shown on step 23 and 24a very closely. Take note which lines are valley folds and which are mountain folds. Thats about all the help I can give. You should be able to figure it out soon, hopefully :D

If you want a very nice looking dragon, try a 6:1 rectangle. Pay lots of attention to how you shape the tail, too.
