will u please help me to make my parrot?
-
I made mine using 2cm x 4cm pieces in Red, Dark Blue. Light Blue, Yellow Green, Yellow, White, Black and Off White. The Beak is made of recycle magazine paper. I started at the head and worked down to the tail. Then I added the beak.
What colors are you going to use?-
thank u so much, that u have come forward to help me. i just want to make your first attempt -parrot, this has less color compared to your second project macaw, i want to use the same colour u used in that.
-
In the first one I used light green, dark green, dark blue yellow and the beak is goldenrod (I cut up a postal envelope). the feet are floral wired wrapped with thin strips of the goldenrod.
-
thank you so much, for helping me out.

as iam not that much familiar in 3do , i have lot of doubts in ur project.
how did u make the neck part somewhat bending ie., the front side of parrot under the beak
and how u separate the front side of parrot from back side,i had noted only in your project, the front side is shown separately, its very nice
next how u attached the wings to the…[Read more]-
to make the neck I start with a ring of 26. I find the top and bottom of the head then work the top in wedges. (kind of like how you the make the wings on the swan.) Then curve each row down a little at a time. The wings are actually continuous from the body. Once I get to the part where the wings attach you have to assemble separately the tops…[Read more]

I’m sorry if I make it sound difficult. It’s really not.!!!
-
thank u so much… i understood the wings part .
but little bit confusing in the head part, as u said please post some more pictures, and can u make diagram for the head, it will very helpful for people like me who are the beginners of 3do and very much interested in learning that-
I drew a partial diagram when I started the Macaw. It just got too complicated at one point and I couldn’t figure out how to explain it in a drawing. Any way, what I do have I’ll scan and post as soon as I can.

the ring of 26, is the base for the neck? or it is the mouth part where the beak starts?
and how the front side looking different under the beak?-
It would be like the bottom row of your swanbasket. Just fit them a little loose so you can slip small pieces in the bottom to work outwards on the beak. as you start the head from the ring, pick a half for the top. If you are making it like my first parrot, i doesn’t really matter which 13 you use as it’s all one color any. Take that half and…[Read more]

I didn’t use a diagram. I sort of invented the technique. see below for more detail.

don’t sell yourself short. I’ve only been doing this style of origami for about 4 years. considering the project took 6 weeks to complete, I would have to be a series of videos. When I started going off on my own and make these pieces, I made a lot of mistakes. I have a box of projects that just plain didn’t work for one reason or another, but I…[Read more]

You do pretty good now. I’d love to see you 10 or 20 years from now.
