Turning Origami Dragon into 3-D

Video Transcript

"Now it is time for our dragon to take a little bit more of a 3-D form. Right now it is just a flat sheet flat of paper, it looks like it has been runned over by a car. So what we are going to do this is the tail section and this is going to be his belly area cause here are his legs. So along this line here which you can see right here we are going to take and fold it up like so. Now that cuts even it in half but it kind of leaves his head out of place. What we have created here and I don't know if you can see this but you would see this as you are doing this is it has a line here and a line here creating this diamond shape. What we are going to do is we are going to fold our dragon neck back up along those edges. We would have to work it a little bit on the inside here. There we go flatten it down a bit. Give it that good shape. You can also take your handy dandy chopsticks and crease it down a little bit more and there we go here is his tail and here is his head. This is going to be his tail and he is starting to take shape."
