    The document provides instructions for folding an origami horse model using 48 steps. It begins with basic folds to shape the paper and then provides directions for lifting the head and tail upwards. A middle graft is added to provide more paper for detailing the head and tail. Further folds shape the legs, body, ears and mane. Additional shaping with mountain and valley folds is described until the finished origami horse is complete.

    Some Background Info about my Horse

    I wanted to design a horse. So first of I thought about the most prominent features of a horse. For me these were the head with pointy ears and mane, a long neck, four legs, body and tail. Then I projected my horse onto a square of paper. Doing so I realized that the triangles on the sides wouldnt be necessary and could be ignored for the further design process. When I fold those unecessary triangles inwards to the middle and fold the whole paper in half, it becomes obvious, that the head needs to be lifted upwards. For shaping the tail, folding it upwards wouldnt hurt either .

    Strip of paper

    Of course I didnt cut the paper apart, to insert my strip of paper , but instead made a pleat fold.

    Thats the base I got. Now something else got obvious: There isnt enough paper left for the head and it will only be a tiny little tail if I leave it like this. Thats when I decided to make a middle graft. A graft is kind of like a strip of paper that you glue onto your model to get more paper . In case of a middle graft, it is like cutting the paper apart along the middle line and insert the strip of paper there.

    So going back a step, I decided to fold the head and tail triangle to the middle and bring them up with rabbit ears.

    That way I got far more paper for the head and tail section to work with.

    The finished horse. Now the next challenge is to get colour changes for the main and tail. But thats something I have to figure out for myself first ;-)

    Here is what the new base looks like. See? Far more paper for head and tail. Now all that is left is dividing the front and hind legs from each other and shaping everything a bit. Easy eh?

    To divide the legs I added a pleat down the middle line, so I was able to fold some paper up. Inside the head I found some additional flaps for the ears that just needed to be freed. Afterwards I shaped everything a bit and tadah, the horse was all done.
