Folding Instruction
    Video : Happypuppytruffles

Another of those snails.This snail has a tail too :).Coming to folding details.The folding starts with square base and further the foldings are similar to origami iris fold .The foldings can be divided into 3 parts.
  1. Folding to get the head and antenna.
  2. Getting the tail.
  3. Expanding/opening the shell.This is bit tricky be careful else it would rip off.I actually was careless and it ripped.

Origami snail - 1

Day 101 - Origami Snail - 1

Model : Origami Snail
Design By : Traditional
Complexity : Medium
Folding Instruction:
    Diagram : The fold
    Video : Super1600
Paper : 4.5 Inches



While folding the origami heart ring yesterday I found this paper napkin origami snail instruction on the YouTube channel by super1600.

Origami snail starts with a square base and going ahead the folds seem similar( not the same though)to the origami bird base.

The Instructions can be divided into 2 parts.First part explains to get the head and antenna and the second part to blow the shell.

One needs to take care while puffing the shell else it would rip the paper.The head and antenna folding is bit cumbersome.The instructions on the video are good but due to the use of the paper towel and white colour the instructions are not that clear at certain points.You need to watch the video carefully to understand how the antenna and the head is made.
