So, there are many figures, but we will show you something original. This paper toy can change shape and transform the way you want it. We offer you to fold origami "transformer".
Origami "transformer" is a toy that can have several variations. For example, there is a Suriken - a throwing star of the Japanese - an ancient weapon. It can be transformed into an ordinary asterisk and into a tulip. And there is an origami "transformer", which can be both a cube and a rose. As a rule, children like these toys very much.
How to make origami "transformer"? First, we will tell you about meerken. We bend horizontally in half, then we bend and to this line we bend again two halves of your paper sheet. Now again you need to fold the sheet in half - again horizontally. We bend the corners on the right and left sides to the center. Now we bend them along the oblique. Repeat the same with another sheet, glue the parts with glue or adhesive tape. And your figure is ready. If you flip it the other side and expand the corners in the opposite direction, you get a six-pointed star.
Origami from paper "transformer" may be different. The cube that turns into a flower is called kusudama. It can be done like this:
In order to get support lines, bend the sheet across two times - a cross-shaped bend is obtained. Flatten the sheet, fold it in half horizontally. Make a fold and straighten it again. Now repeat all the horizontal folds vertically and bend again. Now you need to fold the double triangle. If you can go over the corners with the “valley” technique, then your origami “transformer” will be two-color.
Now we make zipper folds on one and the second side - this will allow us to push the corners of our product inward. Repeat the same manipulations on the other side. The top of the product must be laid to the right. And then gently bend it inward. Two of the peaks on the side lift up. The first module we have done. It remains to do five more of the same. Attach these parts to each other using glue or tape. You should get a cube - a wonderful origami transformer. And now this, at first glance, a straightforward figure, is ready to show the world and you the wonders of reincarnation. If you bend the corners of each small square to the center, you get a fluffy ball. If these same corners are bent inward, a rose will turn out. Just try to glue the parts in advance so that they do not fall apart at the moment when you will demonstrate the transformation to your loved ones.
