A 15 cm square of (tissue) foil paper in Android Green is recommended and will result in an Android of about 5 to 6 cm.

1. Fold and unfoldthe square in half making only a pinch mark at the edge.

2. Fold and unfold the edge to pinch mark making another pinch mark.

3. Fold and unfold along the diagonal making a pinch markapproximately where shown. http://www.origamiaustria.at

4. Fold and unfold along the shown line making a pinch mark only at the intersection. Page 1 / 6

5. Precrease into10ths using the reference point. Make sure to keep the marked areas free of creases. Note the distribution of mountain and valley folds.

6. Make one pleat at the top.

7. Precrease the showndiagonals as mountain folds.

8. Collapse using the shown creases. The top will swing backwards. You will get three tips together at the top. The arms will swing to the side of the body.

8a. Intermediatedrawing (the best I could do...) Continue collapsing until the model is at.
