| Text | Fun little two-tone fox 1. With the color underneath, fold the two diagonals into a valley. Leave the sheet of paper open, in diamond position. The two diagonals intersect at the center of the square. In the diamond position, the square has an upper point, a lower point, a left point and a right point. 2. Using valley folds, bring the upper, lower and left points to the center of the square. We obtain a five-sided shape, with a point of simple thickness on the right. This form has three triangular flaps, each linked to the form by a hinge fold. 3. Unfold the left triangular flap from right to left. We obtain a 6-sided shape, with a left tip and a right tip of simple thickness. This form has two triangular flaps, an upper and a lower. 4. Using a valley fold from left to right, bring the left point to the point of intersection between the horizontal valley fold starting from the point and the valley fold marking the base of the triangular point. The triangular flap is transformed into a trapezoid with two parallel vertical edges. 5. Using the valley fold which forms its long side, bring back from left to right the trapezoid on the fold. We obtain a 5-sided shape, with a point of simple thickness on the right. The pentagonal shape has a triangular flap at the top and bottom, and on the left a trapezoid of double thickness over most of its surface. The trapezoid and the two triangular flaps delimit a small triangle of simple thickness. 6. Flip the fold up and down. Be careful, this is not the usual left to right movement. The point remains to the right. 7. Bring, by a valley fold from top to bottom, the upper edge of the pentagonal shape on the horizontal fold which passes through the point on the right and the middle of the vertical edge on the left. Fold only the top layer, let the triangular flap return to the top. The triangular flap, which was under the folding, passes above it. 8. Bring, by a valley fold from bottom to top, the lower edge of the pentagonal shape on the horizontal fold which passes through the point on the right and the middle of the vertical edge on the left. Fold only the top layer, let the triangular flap come back down. We obtain a complex shape, bearing on the right a small point of simple thickness. The shape carries two triangular flaps of simple thickness, one point of which extends outwards, the side opposite the tip being contiguous with that of the other triangular flap. We will focus on the left end of the shape. The triangular flaps delimit two thick imaginary triangles, one at the top left, the other at the bottom left of the shape. It is necessary to locate the meeting points between the horizontal edges of the two thick triangles and the left edges of the two triangular flaps of single thickness. 9. Form the upper left thick triangle by marking a valley fold starting from the middle of the left vertical edge of the shape and following the left edge of the upper triangular flap. 10. Form the bottom left thick triangle by marking a valley fold starting from the middle of the left vertical edge of the shape and following the left edge of the bottom triangular flap. 11. Form, through all thicknesses, a vertical valley fold joining the points of intersection between the horizontal edges of the thick triangles and the left edges of the triangular flaps. Normally, the folds marked at step 9 and step 10 arrive at these intersection bridges. 12. By sliding a finger inside the upper left corner of the shape, and using the vertical crease prepared in step 11, bring the corner as far to the right as possible. The upper left corner disappears, in favor of a point directed towards the right of the fold and aligned with the lower hinge fold of the upper triangular flap. 13. By sliding a finger inside the bottom left corner of the shape, and using the vertical crease prepared in step 11, bring the corner as far to the right as possible. The lower left corner disappears, in favor of a point directed towards the right of the fold and aligned with the upper hinge fold of the lower triangular flap. We now have two small points pointing to the right. 15. Flip the fold up and down. Be careful, this is not the usual left to right movement. The two triangular flaps and the two small points are below. The point remains to the right. Two long horizontal sides extend from it, towards the left. These two sides end on a point which carries a small triangular pocket. 16. Slide a finger into the triangular pocket on the left of the shape to lift it, then fold in half from top to bottom, in a valley, along the horizontal fold passing through the two left and right vertices. We obtain a complex shape with a long horizontal edge at the top. The shape is terminated on the right by a sharp point, on the left by a thick imaginary square end partly hidden, on each side by a triangular flap of double thickness (the future ears). 17. Fold the right point from the right to the left, with a valley fold following the right edge of the upper single-thickness triangular flap. Unfold, fold in the mountains following the right edge of the single-thickness triangular flap hidden under the fold. Return to starting position. This is a preparation fold for the exterior reverse fold made in the next step. 18. Using the preparation fold made in step 17, execute an outside reverse fold. This forms the fox's tail. It surrounds a point of each triangular flap, and is white in color. We will now focus on the fox's head, that is to say the imaginary triangle which protrudes from the fox's future ears, on the left of the shape. 19. Mark a valley fold starting from the base of the imaginary triangle and bringing the tip of the triangle somewhere inside the fox's upper ear. Unfold. Return to the mountains. Unfold. There is no benchmark. The objective is to form the animal's muzzle. 20. Using the preparation fold from step 19, make a reverse fold to bring the tip of the imaginary triangle inside. The muzzle is ready. 21. Fold each ear backwards in a valley, going as far as possible. Return to initial position. The fold comes naturally, you don't have to force it so as not to tear the paper. Each ear is now delimited by a fold which ends on the hinge fold bordering a large triangular flap. 22. Mark a valley fold passing through the lower corner of the front triangular flap and joining the end point of the fold delimiting the base of the front ear with the hinge fold of the same triangular flap. Return to position. 23. Mark a valley fold passing through the lower corner of the rear triangular flap and joining the end point with the fold delimiting the base of the rear lug with the hinge fold of the same triangular flap. Return to position. 24. Using the folds of step 22 and step 23, make an outer reverse fold to bring the white color to the outside. This will give the illusion of fur along the neck. This is a pretty two-tone fox. |
