Elephant

Model by Joseph Wu.

Abstract elephant model without thusks.

Folding tips

  • Step 19: this is easier when you unfold step 18 first, then re-fold the top layer while keeping the lower layer still.
  • At step 20, you should fold the model in half with a valley fold, then rotate the model as depicted in step 21.
  • During step 22, note that you’ll need to squash from the center; the model becomes asymmetrical. Step 23 makes it symmetrical again.

Paper & size

When folded from a 17.5cm square, the resulting model ends up 7.5cm long and 6cm in height.
