Step 5 shows a (blintzec)
Pig base. Though it looks
similar to traditional Double
Boat (shown below), they are
completely different.
Pig base:
In Standing Crane, | explained the trunk in a tree structure.
The base of tracitional Pig shows a structure with a typical
Use of the trunk. The Pig base has a trunk in the middle
and three branches at each end. You can see the central
river in the circlo-river diagram that corresponds to the
trunk,
From the viewpoint of “molecules” or areas of grouped
creases, the base consists of two quadrangular
“molecules,” that is, two 1 : 2 rectangular "molecules."
‘Now, let's take a closer look at quadrangular “molecules.”
‘Any quadrangle can be folded so that all edges align,
(Robert Lang proved that its true with any polygon, but,
here we examine only quadrangles.) For example, as
‘explained in Orizury Transformation, a quadrangle that has
‘an inscribed circle can be folded as shown in the left ang
‘center picture in the middle row. The center quadrangle is
folded in the same way as a Water-bomb base from a
square. If we extend this pattotn to a rectangle and other
quadrangles, we must add a crease to make a trunk.
‘The ctease pattern on the right is for Tiger | published
before, Although it has more creases because i is based
on 22.5" angles, you can see two 1 : 1.5 rectangle
“molecules” next to each other. They define the basic
structure, and the other parts create flaps for ears. So this,
pattern can be applied to different quadruped animals.
This Cow is also derived from @ Pig base, though nol fram
