Origami Crease Pattern Class 3 (Part 1)

This is part of my Origami Crease Pattern Class video series. It is a tutorial on the first set of downshifters common to boxpleated insects. This specific example comes from the abdomen of Damian Malicki's Sun Beetle which Damian kindly gave me permission to use. This Origami Tutorial will help demystify precrease and collapse myths on this structure.

Again, super helpful. Without this tutorial I would've never guessed it was supposed to be done like this. Thanks!

This was very helpful. Especially for the beetle. Those pleats were always a problem while precreasing.

Wow, i remenber watch you on Twitch, long time ago, you were folding the basilisk i guess, from bodo (like a bird with scaled tail) you said you were starting to read CP. Look at you now, helping us to understant CP, for this i thank you good sir, and Hope you all the luck with the class, i for sure will watch all. Cya

I just finish your model samurai
Very hard to collapsing but very ez to make detail

[Fadilanse]

Me: challenging myself to complete the collapse before you explain it
Boice: this one you don't have to precrease it
Me: dammit!

[pritish]

Hi Boice do u think the vinegroon by Kota imai is a good model to practice after this

[leifemery]

I watch you and fearless flourish a lot
Where do you get the crease patterns for the complex models?
Like the sun beetle you showed in this video
You a great job with this channel and you really helped me learn more about origami!

So when I folded this the sink fold off angle creases deep in the paper didn't match up to the crease pattern exactly but it doesn't matter so long as the visible mountain/valley folds are correct - is that a good way of looking at it?

damn dude I can't do that face hugger LMAO that's like telling a man who is afraid of spiders or snakes and saying to him pick it up. lol ! I can't look at that damn thing ! the mere thought of i cringe.
