11. At the halfway mark on the top edge reverse fold the front of the model up.
12. Now release the trapped layer of paper on each side and fold it forward. If you were to make this with regular kami (color one side white the other) you would be making a partial color change.
13. Sink the center layer in and then fold the outer layers into the inner sink.
15. Now pull out the trapped layers inside of the head to make it larger.
16. Pleat the beak in a bit. 17. Fold the flaps forward, they are about to become wings!
18. Fold the flaps back at a jaunty angle for the wings!
19. These are the finishing touches. Fold the back of the head in to the body, then sink the top of the head and the next spot down in the front of the head, the rest of the head can be managed just fine with mountain folds.
