Intro: How to Origami an X-Wing StarfighterHi there!Ever wanted your own starfighter to destroy a giant paper Deathstar? You're in luck!Image Notes1. Pew Pew!2. Pew Pew!3. Pew Pew!4. Pew Pew!5. Luke goes hereStep 1: The BaseMake a base by starting with a square piece of paper.Fold diagonally on each side, then turn the paper over.Fold in half twice, then turn over again and pull corners together. It should form a diamond shape. If yours is a triangle, you forgot to turn it over!Step 2: Make a diamondLift one fold so that it is pointing upwards, then open and flatten it. Turn the left side of the diamond to the right side and repeat with the next flap. Turn it over and repeatwith the other -an-X-Wing-Starfighter/
Image Notes1. Open this part, then push the top i-an-X-Wing-Starfighter/
Step 3: The hard partFind a side where the edge of the paper goes across the point like the end of step one, the open side should point downwards. Fold each side into the middle, thenunfold. Lift the edge that runs across to the top, allowing the sides to fold inwards. This should make an elongated diamond shape. If the sides do not meet in the middle,the side corners of your new diamond shape are not at the points you made earlier. If you still can't get it, try folding the top point of the paper down to make a crease inthe middle. It will be easier to fold the elongated diamond shape. Repeat on the other 4 sides.Image Notes1. Fold this so that it meets the middleImage Notes1. Fold this one in too so that it looks like photo 3Image Notes1. This should be the corner of your new diamond.2. If you fold the top down, this will be around about where the crease is.Image Notes1. Pull this towards the top of the page2. The sides should start to go to the middle, but you may need to fold i-an-X-Wing-Starfighter/
Image Notes1. CORNER!Step 4: The CockpitA nice easy step. Fold the top of the diamond down on 3 sides.Step 5: Erm. Step 5!You should see four legs at the bottom. Fold each leg halfway, allowing it to turn inside out do that it looks like a mountain from the side. It is easier when you are startingto fold it to the top by pulling it gently sideways and up, then pulling it down. Flatten it. This is similar to making the tail and neck to a paper mi-an-X-Wing-Starfighter/
Step 6: Shaping itThis step gives the starfighter a more slim (aerodynamic) shape. Fold one leg to the side so that it flattens out at the bottom. Fold one of the top sides so that the bottomfollows the crease from the leg and the top isn't quite at the point. Repeat on other sides.Image Notes1. Not quite at the top2. Following this creaseStep 7: The cockpit and lasers.Find the side that looks different from the others, this is the cockpit. Pull it up and fold it in so that it is three dimensional like the pictures.To make the lasers, point the starfighter towards you and on each of the legs, flatten the tip and bring it towards you. Flatten it down and you should have a nice 90degree angle.Step 8: Kudos!You now have your very own X-Wing starfighter (I hope)These do not fly, but are very cool. You could make a bunch and hang them from your ceiling if you really wanted. These aren't my own design, but I hope you had funmaking them! Please ask if there is a step you don't fully origami-an-X-Wing-Starfighter/

Also looks like some of the pics are out of order. I made it to here and then I was totallylost. I would really like to use this instructable. Hopefully you can update and make corrections.jpayton1 says:Oct 9, 2011. 8:06 PM REPLYVery nice variation on the frog base, and not nearly as complex as other x-wing designs I've seen. I could teach this one to grade-school kids.jholst says:Oct 9, 2011. 7:39 PM REPLYI can't figure out how one gets to pic 3 in Step 3. When I fold the edge in as described in the first two pics, they meet in the middle at an angle, not straightacross as shown in pic 3. And the bits sticking out in pics 3-5.from the directions, all I come up with was another elongated diamond.Maybe I need Origami for Dummies.Xenobia says:Oct 9, 2011. 3:06 PM REPLYI have read all of the comments and updated a few of the steps. Please let me know if there is anything else that needs more/less detail.bparry1 says:Oct 9, 2011. 2:21 PM REPLYI think you've made a mistake here - based on the later pictures you appear to have folded down all but one of the sides, rather than only one.Also, I assume "repeat step 2" ought to read "repeat step 3".Besides that, lovely instructable. I now have a lovely X-Wingoid sat by my igami-an-X-Wing-Starfighter/
pedistrarian says:Oct 9, 2011. 1:17 PM REPLYyou forgot to add, that after you have all the flaps done in the last step, to turn the 'page' so that it looks like the right side of picture one.pedistrarian says:Oct 9, 2011. 1:15 PM REPLYfor those of you who turn out with a triangle instead of a diamond, just turn it inside out and fold along the creases already made.jstarkmuth says:Oct 9, 2011. 12:44 PM REPLYAm I right to assume that after flattening, each of the four "pockets" must be folded to the inside at the center fold? Otherwise I can't seem to achieve thelast picture.I'm having great difficulties with the descriptions and the unsharp photos .stuuman says:Oct 9, 2011. 10:36 AM REPLYI can get to photo 2 of this step (3), but I cannot duplicate any folding to move on to photo 3 or beyond.bbonsen says:Oct 9, 2011. 10:08 AM REPLYStep by step pictures or more detailed steps would be helpful, I am having trouble getting my paper to look like the last picture.Xenobia says:Oct 8, 2011. 2:09 PM REPLYAdded extra pictures to step two and step three, hope they help.cbarrios1 says:Oct 8, 2011. 7:39 AM REPLYMy son and I are having difficulty with this step. We get it to look exactly as it should by the end of step 2 but are not understanding how you get it to looklike the first picture in Step three from the last picture in Step 2. A little help or more pictures would be appreciated! My son is super excited to fold thisfighter.AlmightyFduffle says:Oct 8, 2011. 5:26 AM REPLYi dont get this step, can u post more photosKentsOkay says:Oct 8, 2011. 12:06 AM REPLYThese are way too awesome!dave spencer says:Oct 7, 2011. 4:55 PM REPLYthanks for the 'ible, my son and I just built two together!slugfritter says:Oct 7, 2011. 1:04 PM REPLYI like the angular shape. It reminds me of the Arwings from Star Fox.mikeasaurus says:Oct 6, 2011. 11:56 PM REPLYIf you put a picture of the final project as the intro picture I'd be happy to feature this awesome Instructable!Kiteman says:Oct 7, 2011. 1:47 AM REPLYBeatcha!mikeasaurus says:Oct 7, 2011. 10:01 AM REPLYNice!Xenobia says:Thanks!

Origami is a paper folding art that emerged in Japan (Yoshioka, 1963). Origami has two types, classical origami and modular origami (Tuğrul & Kavici, 2002). A single piece of paper is used in classic origami. Different items, animal figures and two-dimensional geometric shapes can be made with classic origami.
