Description A short illustrated tutorial to Kawasaki rose. I made it long ago for my friends.

The four shots on the top show the folding in progress.

Then shots on the left show the upper side of paper, while the shots on the right show the bottom side of it.

Search on youtube for videos.

Don't videos help you?
My hint is - pinch the diagonal mountain folds and fold them to the valley folds on the right. It's so easy when done once...

The roses in your tutorial look soo pretty... did you do wet folding? Or art thou simply a master?

alena-light In reply to ScreamingOutQuietly [2010-11-26 09:14:32 +0000 UTC]

Because I've planned to do an illustration, not a video. There's plenty of videos on youtube.com (^

I've attempted this rose so many times, it's frustrating! I've tried everything; tutorials, videos, diagrams. I can't get anywhere past the third step *fail*.

alena-light In reply to ViVoRiNo99 [2010-02-01 09:43:48 +0000 UTC]

I guess it's better to find a friend who knows how to fold it and ask him to teach you (^

BladeOfLoki [2009-10-14 03:41:44 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm not sure how to get from the third step to the fourth. I tried watching the videos too, but I'm still stuck. D: I'm just not sure how to fold it so I get that little square at the end.

alena-light In reply to BladeOfLoki [2009-10-15 12:04:34 +0000 UTC]

You should raise the diagonal creases and form the square in the middle.
Then wrap the diagonals in counterclockwise manner, using the parallel valley folds below diagonals.
These two actions will form the model shown on the fourth shot.
Is it too complicated?

Oh god.... It took me 3-4 youtube videos, 6 hours, and your tutorial to get it done... And it still looks like a messy little mass of paper. I really hope I improve after 5th...
