THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've looked everywhere for a good wet-folding tutorial!
Brady Nehls Haha no problem :)
very informative... and your models are amazingly simple, minimalistic... eye opening for for folders looking for new horizons...
This is such a great and informative video. I'm just starting out and it's hard to find good information so thank you for making this!
Baconfan hey, I'm glad to hear that ;) do you start with wet folding or with origami? if you need help dont hesitate to ask :)
So that's how you do it. I've beem folding the whole thing with paper that's like thin construction paper, then mold it after wetting it quite a bit from the faucet. It turned out well in spite of my stupid technique.
You are awesome dude I made your leafy dance with tang and it was so fun to make :)
Thank you for your compliment ;) Sounds good! Have a wonderful day :)
thank you very much for the tips, previously I wasn't even able to fold the simple pelican
+TheGaurdianSeesYou I'm glad to hear that. You're welcome ;)
Thanks Alexander for this video, i have searched EVERYWHERE for a tutorial for papers. This helped me learn more about wet-folding! :).
But today i was looking for info about Tissue papers, and how you can treat it with MC glue. I saw your video about how you treat MC glue with other papers, but you didn't do it with tissue papers. Can you maybe make a video about tissue papers, and sandwich papers?
I'm sorry that i ask a lot! don't feel obligated to make a video about it!
Thanks!
Nathan Buis You're welcome, Nathan. I have never made my own double tissue or treated tissue paper. But my friend Damian is very good at it and you can find a tutorial by him here: How to make double tissue paper - TUTORIAL I hope that helps ;) If not please write again.
quietmarverick Thanks :). I have another question: Where do you get your MC glue? i can't find it anywhere in the Netherlands, and when i searched on internet, i didn't know wich one was good and wich one was bad. Can you maybe give a website where you buy it? or the website from the shop where you buy it?
Thanks! :)
Hey. I buy this one: www.amazon.de/METYLAN-NORMAL-APETEN-K-125GR-MK40/dp/B000QB2ZXI/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1408257560&sr=8-9&keywords=tapetenkleister I'm not sure what name it has in netherland. In germany it's imprtant that there is written "normal" on it. Because it's without chemicals I think. You should look at amazon or on shops where you can by wallpapers. ;)
Thanks! I actually found something lookalike: www.praxis.nl/verf-laminaat-decoratie/behang/behangbenodigdheden/behanglijm/perfax-cellulose-behangplaksel-metyl-125gr/1205408
Do you think that this is the same? There's standing: 'For normal and heavy wallpapers'
Looks good. Ithink it's the same or something very similar. :)
Great video! Thanks
Wonderful and thanks for the video!
+sazure2 You're welcome ;)
I just didn't get how you dry fold and then wet shape.Isn't it hard to get the paper wet after you already folded it that much?do you soak it with a cloth too?and I would also like too know if I could try wet folding with a tissue foil.
Can Cebeci I use the spray bottle to make it wet at the end. But I don't wetten the whole model but only a part... shape it and than I wetten the next part and so on. You can also do this with a cloth corner wich is a bit more wet than I showed in the video. Which kind of tissue foil to you mean? The self made or the one by Nicolas Terrys origami-shop? However both are not good for wet folding.
quietmarverick I meant the one from the origami shop but I didn't know it was different than a self made one.Anyway,thank you for your reply
Can Cebeci Okay. Yes there is a huge different between this papers. Self made paper has a complete aluminiumfoil layer between two layers tissue paper. You can shape it very much better than the "tissue foil" by Nicolas Terry. And you don't need water or glue to shape self made tissue foil because of the foil layer in it.
This is a very good tutorial thank u :)
wet folding, here i come !
+péter csákvári Haha nice :)
this ,akes sense, the collapse was very hard for the theif of the last geometry for me, mmy paper was too wet so it wouldn't stay crisp
+TheGaurdianSeesYou Yes that's it. Most often the people wetten the paper too much. I made the same mistake when I started wet folding.
Very helpful! Thank you! How come German people are awesome at art and engineering?🤣
Hey and thanks :D I don't think I'm that awesome xD
List of paper shop?
It's below the video ;)
Du bist eindeutig deutsch haha gut erklärt !
Haha ja der schreckliche Akzent :D Danke ;)
Is elephant hide paper, really made from elephants? Or is it just named that?! I don't think I'd want to do that if it really is from elephants.
Tom Cat Of course it's NOT made from elephants ;) It's called like that because it's very strong paper. You can wetten it often and it will not tear that easy.
Ok! I just wanted to make sure! lol
I never heard of it before and tried to find out if it was really made of elephant but couldn't find any answers through Google.
This is my first video on wet folding paper. Totally amazed at the possibility. Thank you for posting
Mister Schabert... in normaly paper is no glue...!!! 😂😂😂😂
got paper? XD
This is one of best videos of paper wetting I have ever seen folded. Thank you.
This video is most excellent. VERY good information. THANK YOU, Friend!
Great video. I only recently started experimenting with wet folding but I love how soft the final result is. Elephant hide is so far my favourite. I didn't know about f-color paper and I'll try to get some.
Sandra Laurentino Indeed elephant hide is a fantastic paper. You can do that much with it and it's so robust :) Glad you like the video!
Ich muss es meistens garnicht nass machen da ich ein wenig schwitze und da erübrigt es sich :D
I think the link to theart papers shop is a Croatian shop! ;) Good tutorial! Now I'm a lot into the wet folding stuff!
Toma Perica Are you sure? I can't read that x) I would really love to get those paper because I know it'S good. But never got it :D Thank you, have fun ;)
can you show how to make origami bull ?
Thanks my friend, trying to learn how to do this.
thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
Thanks for the wet folding tutorial though it helped :)
Oirgami Nick You're welcome ;)
Alexander where can i buy paper on Mexico capital?
Sancho Panza What kind of paper? As you can see in the video description you could get some papers online at origami-shop or kim's crane. Sorry but I don'T know shops directly in Mexico. Never been there before.
Was für ein kleber verwendest du damit es danach in Form bleibt ? Hab das noch nie gemacht. Bei meinen Figuren habe ich das Problem, dass die Faltung wieder auseinander gehen.
Echt gutes Video 😂👌 du bist Deutscher oder?!
x.unicorn.x danke :D jap, bin ich ;) unschwer am schlechten englischen Akzent zu erkennen xD
Super b 👀👈👌👌👌🙏
Hello! You helped me alot, Thank You ❤
elephant paper is made out from elephant's poop!
Thanks for the video. What type of paper is best for wet fold? What gs is ideal for making good creases but also holding shape? Thanks
As I told in the video it depends on what you like to fold. Do you fold a model with less folds or with many folds. Dou you fold with big size or small size. Do you fold with curves or do you fold geometric. There is not ONE PERFECT paper for wetfolding ;)
I have 200gs watercolor paper but I don't get how you can possibly fold anything even a bit complex with it. I mean, it lets you fold it when it's wet, but you can't make sharp creases anyway, besides the model gets ridiculously thick pretty soon, so it becomes almost impossible to make a crease through multiple layers. Is such paper suitable only for simple models?
Yes paper with 200gsm is only for models with very less folds. Only 1-4 layers. Maybe 6 or 8 layers if you use very large paper for huge model. If you like to fold simple model you can use 100gsm watercolor paper. For intermediate models you can use elephant hide which is also about 100gsm but very different to watercolor paper. For wet folded intermediate to complex models I recommend to use about 30-80gsm wet folding papers like Tant, biotope paper, multilayered chinese papers etc. May I ask which model you like to fold. Maybe I can help you with the paper.
Thank you for an answer. I didn't have any particular model in mind, just tried to get my hands on wet-folding and see how it feels. I started with rather simple models (like Edwin Corrie's dragon for example), they work out fine but I saw that the problem would arouse with more complex ones. I tried to make Satoshi's Pegasus (which I folded dry from "kami paper" before) but it quickly became impossible to continue. My current goal is Satoshi's Cerberus and Phoenix 3.5, so I'm looking at tissue foil maybe. If go with wet-folding, then I think elephant hide will do, but these models are too complex for me to wet-fold since I don't have any experience with wet-folding.
gghelis Ah okay. For models like Kamiyas phoenix and cerberus I recommend to use double tissue paper. I wouldn't wetfold those complex models. You can wet shape them at the end. They have so much folds which have to be perfect so that all is nice at the end. And with wet folding you always lose a bit accuracy. Tissuefoil is also good paper for phoenix. Sure welt folding is a nice thing but not good for everything. So you should try wet folding with easy models first and fold complex models with other papers because there are also very much cool dry folding papers.
By double tissue you mean I have to glue to sheets of tisuue paper together? Or is this some special kind of paper?
My problem is all these tricky papers are not sold in my city, they are hard to find in my country, so I have to order them online in stores like origami-shop. I ordered tissue foil because it is the only type I have some idea about. Ordering all other types, like unryuu, washi, lokta, elephant hide etc. is like hit and miss, pretty risky.
gghelis For double tissue look at this video: th-cam.com/video/vUBENLeJSmw/w-d-xo.html yes it's only gluing two layers tissue together and it's really great paper for complex models. You can shape it with water or mc glue at the end. And you really don'T need expensive special papers from those shops. Sure some of them are really good but you can fold with self made papers very very very nice too. The self made tissue foil is much better than that from origami shop. If you can buy foil in your country (that one you use in your kitchen) you should make your own tissue foil: th-cam.com/video/gzLx6KFdenc/w-d-xo.html.
:( I want to make your masks, plz make a tutorial
Oirgami Nick Sorry but I can't. I have promised it to the friend who taught me.
Do you recommend a certain paper for beginners?
TaelorOrigami Elephant hide ;) It works very good and it will not tear if you use too much water.
Ethan's for the video! All the information I wanted
