PLEASE CHECK OUT THE INSTRUCTABLE if you want step by step instructions. thank you.

This is me folding an origami dragon.
it uses just an 8.5x8.5 square of paper (make a square form a regular sheet).
I've also made an instructable detailing the folding process.

i cant properly access the video, the screenis just white.

Works for me. I suggest you make sure flash is working properly. I don't serve up the videos -- youtube does.

you were right, its fine now ps im starting to make my own instructables

jabapyth (author) in reply to 1333jmJan 8, 2010. 6:08 PM

I did answer, but I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. In my opinion, the comprehensive series of photos included in the instructable make a far better teaching tool for learning origami than a video would. This video was made first, and its purpose is to give you a general idea of how to fold the dragon. For better/more followable instructions, I would highly suggest looking at the instructable.

jabapyth (author) in reply to 1333jmJan 13, 2010. 10:31 AM

Thats fine, I'm not mad; It's just sometimes difficult to communicate w/ just text ;-)

jabapyth (author) in reply to 1333jmJan 7, 2010. 8:29 AM

Have you tried using the step-by-step instructable?

cool, but this would be better if you put step by step instructions instead of a video. still cool

jabapyth (author) in reply to pagangodJan 2, 2009. 1:39 PM

Good idea. I'll see if I can do that soon.

jabapyth (author) in reply to jabapythJan 3, 2009. 2:06 PM

sorry for asking so many questions but how do you make the step by step instructable

cowscankill says: Dec 31, 2008. 10:12 PM

That is pretty good.

k.o in reply to cowscankillSep 25, 2009. 5:58 PM

wat do you have to do to make a video or make an instructable

jabapyth (author) in reply to k.oSep 25, 2009. 7:08 PM

well I just used my digital camera to video myself, and uploaded it to instructables. Its a pretty simple process. To make an instructable I like taking an exhaustive amount of photos, as that's the best way *I* learn. I'm pretty sure there's an instructable on here called "How to Make an Instructable"

k.o in reply to jabapythSep 25, 2009. 7:56 PM

thank you!!!!!!!!

k.o in reply to k.oSep 25, 2009. 7:58 PM

k.o in reply to k.oSep 25, 2009. 8:10 PM

jabapyth (author) in reply to k.oSep 25, 2009. 8:07 PM

jabapyth (author) in reply to Naruto001Jan 3, 2009. 2:07 PM

I've made something like this about a year ago for a Western Civilization class I was taking when we had to build a castle for Lords and serfs and such. It took so long and I completely forgot how to do it RIGHT after I made it.
