Create origami from the peacock modules yourself

Preparation : When making origami from the peacock modules, first familiarize yourself with the Chinese technique of creating paper models that resemble elements of a conventional designer. Prepare rectangles of colored paper, for this, the long side of the A4 sheet can be divided into eight different parts, with a short part of the sheet divided into four parts. By drawing a sheet into rectangles using a simple pencil and ruler, you can then cut it into lines. As a result, you get rectangles measuring 37 × 53 millimeters, from which you need to collect as many modules as possible. To make the modular origami peacock look very unusual, use colored paper of several contrasting colors to make the craft.

Creating modules : When assembling origami from the peacock modules, you first need to work on adding color rectangles to triangular modules. The rectangle is folded in half so that its middle points out, then the edges are bent towards the center, after which the module should be turned over and its edges raised. At the top is a large triangle, and the bottom corners are wrapped through it, and the result is a module with two pockets and two corners.

Assembly of modules : Creation of origami from peacock modules begins with the assembly of paper modules among themselves, and such elements for an unusual craft are attached without glue, and the corner of one triangle is inserted into the pocket of another part of the product. Although the easiest way to assemble a paper peacock according to a ready-made scheme, you can apply your own imagination by changing the shape of the bird's tail, or using the most unusual ornament. Collecting an origami peacock, start with the base of the tail of the bird, for which you will need to use 28 paper modules. The tail should resemble a huge crown, and when assembling it is desirable to use modules of three or four shades - white, greenish, yellow and bright pink flowers.

The simplest origami of the peacock modules you will be able to accomplish if the bird's tail is not an integral structure in the form of a fan, but assembled from several strips of paper modules assembled together. And if you have already mastered the technique of creating origami from "Chinese" triangles, you can make a more interesting paper peacock.

Since the beauty of crafts depends on the brightness and shape of the tail of the "paradise" bird, start assembling this element from the creation of white triangles of an arc-shaped detail. From the base, a couple of rows of paper parts must be laid, and then three triangular elements, outwardly imitating the color of the feathers for the peacock's tail, are assembled separately and carefully inserted into the assembled tail base and carefully fixed.

30 color modules will go to the assembly of the body of the bird, for this triangles are laid out in six rows in a circle, and then on the eleven modules the breast of the paper bird is collected. To the peacock's breast was neat and gradually passed into the neck, in each subsequent row it is necessary to use one color module less than used in the previous row.

The peacock's neck consists of twelve rows of Chinese triangles, and in each row you can use only three parts - one green and two yellow triangles. When the neck of a bird of paradise is collected, it is enough to attach a peacock beak from a small modular element of red color. The tail is attached to the almost finished paper artwork in the last place, if desired, it can be attached with glue, but correctly assembled origami will perfectly hold and without any fastening materials.
