A whale of a good fold.

Diagram:
This whale model was folded based on a diagram at Origami-Club.Com.

My Experience:
Though the whale has very few folds, I had a tough time deciding how far to do each fold.

Additionally, the fourth step/fold, where a backwards fold is done, was a bit tricky to get lined up evenly.

I enjoyed doing this model for both the low number of steps and it is a rewarding model in appearance.

Personalize:
Personalizing is easy enough with a marker, but I’d recommend folding out the tail to distinguish your model.

Additionally, this whale has no hump. Simply fold in near the front and or further in on the back end to give the whale a hump near where the spout would be.

Additional Notes:
This model was constructed with blue paper due to an unfortunate lack of black. I’d recommend black for your model if possible.
