This is the tutorial for my ORIGAMI WINTER TREE. I sort of reinvented the wheel with this design. Last year, I was trying to make an origami bonsai tree but all the tutorials I could find used paper mache branches. I wanted mine to be all origami so I started designing branches. What you see in this video is what I came up with. As a matter of fact, the last tree on the right at the end of the video IS the one I folded last year. I decided to do this tutorial after I found it while organizing my origami workspace last weekend. After coming up with a design, I found a few designs using the same origami technique to create branches. I should give a shout out to a model called Tree Of Death by Spliffonaut and Eric Joisel's Ent. You may find it tedious to fold all the pleats to make this model. I like pleating. As a origami designer starting out, a logical place to begin many model ideas is with pleating. My last model, Scalloped Bowl, and my next, Flying Squirrel, use it too. There are many different ways to fold different combinations of branches after you have the 32 x 32 grid folded. Always use an even number of squares when spacing branch points. The more branches you have on each row, the shorter they all are on that row. That makes sense, right? I recommend 6 - 7 points on the bottom row of roots, 5 - 6 points for the lower branches, and 4 - 5 points for the longer upper branches. This makes the base stable and the tree shaped more tree-like. The most important part of this model is probably the shaping. You may spend as much time shaping the branches and roots as you spend pleating. TO SHAPE THE BRANCHES, find the middle space between the flaps of a main branch and press each side to round them. Articulate on the folds that run at odd angles to the branches to give them more character. The main trunk should be divided in half and squished on either side as well to make it rounded. Notice that the bottom set of branches will move away from the top set while you are originally forming all the flaps. The different looking tree in the middle is an example of how differently you can choose to make the branched from the 32 x 32 grid. I believe I started it by folding a valley fold at 5 down, mountain fold at 9 down, valley fold at 14 down, and mountain fold at 18 down. The roots were spaced by 2's and 4's and kind of just squished flat to hold it up. The branches are, I believe, all 4's and 5's. There are an almost infinite number of ways you can fold something plantlike using this technique. I'd love to see a picture of what YOU create. Please visit rickmanorigami and leave me a picture comment of your version of Winter Tree. PLEASE CLICK THE LIKE BUTTON FOR THIS VIDEO if you liked it. Thank you so much, Origami Friends! Now you too can turn paper back in to a tree.
Surprised that I was able to make this, but it turned out super cool! Thanks for a great tutorial
Comments like this make me want to keep sharing my designs. Thank you for your comment. I'm glad it turned out so well for you!
:D Even early on (before my audio would sync with my video and I decided to leave out the sound) I wanted to add humor to my videos. I have a fun personality. I used to be a theater student in college. Having my own RUclips channel allows me to cut loose and be goofy like that. Sometimes I think, "Oh, Tim, leave out all the silliness. People just want to see the origami." But, I think that's what makes my channel different. It's entertaining even if you aren't going to fold the model. *Bazinga!*
this is sooooooooo beautiful, and iv folded so many for myself. im happppppy thnxx
1 person doesn't like turning trees back into paper.
you mean paper back into trees?
hahaha
You really got me with the 64x64. Venus flytrap sounds fun
Thank you, Nathan Buis! As a matter of fact, I'm just about to film my next origami video tutorial for part two of my Modular Rhombicosidodecahedron. I hope you like it and videos I make in the future just as much :)
Hi, Christina! I'm glad my vid makes you feel that way. The only thing I can compare ASMR to is guided meditation. Like focusing on a candle flame in a dark quiet room until your state of mind changes. Anyway, I'm glad you like and please do continue to enjoy.
your work is amazing! its a wonder I'm only finding your channel now. I haven't watched the whole video yet but do you mention anywhere what size paper and type of paper is best for this?
I'm really glad you found this video useful, Alex! My goal is to bring you original quality origami videos every week. Please help me reach more people by liking and sharing my videos.
what kind of paper did you use???is it okay to use colored paper???
what can i say, you are good at origami. you are probably one of the best at origami. keep folding papers as long as you want. and i will remember you. keep making good work.
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement Jinsup :)
Good suggestion, firtha06. Box pleating is a logical place to start for beginning origami designers. Stay tuned next week and you will learn more about box pleating when I show you how to fold my model Flying Squirrel.
Great question, WiredSnail01. Yes, Winter Tree is my design. I came up with the technique without looking at anyone else's instructions. Afterwards, I did find other similar models. spliffonaut has a video for a very similar model called Tree Of Death but does not credit any designer. Under copyrite laws for origami I can claim this as my design. If anyone thinks I am infringing on their copyrite I'm happy to discuss it. Thanks for the question and the complement :D
You must be the master of hardcore origami
Double layers. In this example, the roots and trunk are double layered and the top and bottom set of branches are single layered. At the end, you can see a tree that looks "fuller" in the middle. In that example, the roots are single layered and each set of branches is double layered. This tutorial is about a means to make multi branched trees but not really about a specific model. Of course, I had to choose one arrangement to show the technique. Fold it any way you like :) Thanks, Anthony Tran!
incrível Tim você já é um dos grandes nomes do origami !
Obrigado pelas suas palavras gentis. Eu não percebi que eu era um grande nome no origami. O que te faz dizer isso? (Thank you for your kind words. I did not realize I was a big name in origami. What makes you say so?)
bom seu trabalho inovador com essa técnica de "grade " ,você também desenvolveu vários modelos complexos
Isso significa muito para mim que você percebe. Eu adoro origami e eu quero contribuir para a teoria do design. Eu acredito que as grades grandes da caixa do número têm mais segredos a descobrir. (It means a lot to me that you notice. I love origami and I want to contribute to design theory. I believe high number box grids have more secrets to discover.)
I'm sorry, julio. What part don't you get? I'd like to see if I can help you. If you find my official Facebook page (link in the video description) you can message me directly.
Wonderful. Beautiful. Nice.fine.fantastic.
Waw. You make such nice tutorials! Thanks for making them!!
Thanks, Alex ! I think it's pretty cool too. Now if only I could figure out how to give it leaves like a bonsai tree...
paper quilling is what i'm trying! Layering them on top. Thank you for the great video!
I folded it, really awesome and thanks for the video
Thank you and you're welcome :)
Waouh thats really beautiful
well done rickman as always a good model A HUGE LIKE FROM ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
excellent video, really clear instructions. thank-you!
Thank you. This was one of my first videos. I have tried to get even better since then. The skill level of my audience is so varied, sometimes it is difficult to know exactly how much information I need to give to be clear. I'm glad you like the video.
Really very nice 👌👌👌
Sorry to bothering, but I do not have patience to read the whole description, and I would like to ask, is it your own design? Anyway, it's really pretty, and thanks for the tutor :)
dude!!!! you are awesome!!!!
tnx for the video!!!
Please if poossible Tim in the Months and Years ahead make some Origami Video Tutorials about how Origami Models are made using Box-pleating.
This would be much and Greatly Appreciated.
:)
I like the way you said that, berny vargas.
Did he make the other trees using the same technique?
The trees at the end of the video? Yeah. I used box pleating to create them all. The arrangement of flaps is different in each though. The tall one is from a larger piece of paper with a wide river separating the branches and roots. The more full tree has, I believe, three rows of branches but they are shorter and all about the same length.
I tried this with Koreon Hanji paper.... didn't work, too springy and the final bends did not hold. will try again with foil.
You are welcome, firtha06! I'll keep posting as often as I have a good model to share. Like and share the videos to help me reach more fans :P
awesome tutorial
Good job Tim! But one suggestion, You should wet-fold this model. ;)
Another Excellent Video Tutorial Thank-You please keep them coming it'd greatly Appreciated.
:)
5:39 LoL, I got the time^!!^
I shall go to Great Lengths And Beyond even to the Moon And Back...Again!
Can you please design origami corals? I need them for a school project.
Sorry. I won't be making a video on origami corals but if you modify the tree design in this video you could design your own. Look up circle/river origami patterns and try to design your own model. Try it. I bet you'll have a lot of fun! Best luck.
Simplemente hermoso
Gracias! Eres muy amable.
It's so cool
Wow I’m doing this thing where I make a whole bunch of Origami animals in a tree, I saw this tree and thought that would be PERFECT...😐then I fast forward to see how difficult it was😫 ahhhhhh why did I pick this treeeeee
It was very Nice Beautiful
p.s i'm alex reyes an old subscriber but i lost my old channel soo ya.... :D
Ты крут!!!
)
Haha, I like to put jokes in my videos. My Flytrap model IS 64x64. Have you seen that on, Miguel?
Ok Thanks Alot for the Reply much Appreciated.
:-)
Bra you made me mess up 😐😐 good one tho 😂😂😂
i thing that's a pretty cool idea ;)
3:36like how many boxes! I am sick of trying!! It have to turn Ok
Wet-folding would be a great technique to use on this model.
omg tingles.
Thank you, Arvanid scorpionking.
What happens at 5:44?
Allong a crease 14 spaces down from the top raw edge of the 32 by 32 box grid, pre-crease a set of diagonals as shown drawn on the paper in the video.
Wow !!!!!!!
Could you make a redo with talking?
Hmm, I might do that someday. But it probably won't be for a while. Thank you for the suggestion.
@@RickmanOrigami Wow, thanks for replying!
@@RickmanOrigami Also, why haven't you uploaded any videos for 2 years?
You're welcome. I think it's very important to respond to comments and I'm super appreciative when anyone wants to ask questions about my art. To answer your question. I have a four year old and a very demanding job. As far as origami, I try as hard as I possibly can to 1. Have my art in some kind of exhibit at least once a year 2. Go to and participate in one origami convention at least every two years 3. Produce one origami video of an original design every six months. While I've proudly been able to keep up with the first two, my video tutorials have suffered. I promise, I intend to create new videos. I swore to my fans the next video I produce will be a full tutorial on my Jabberwock model, which has proven to be an extremely difficult task for me when balanced with my every day life. I will eventually accomplish this goal and I believe there will be many more video tutorials of mine to follow. I really appreciate my fans. Stay subscribed. I will make more tutorials. It's just been difficult to maintain my schedule but I believe I will be back at it again in the future. Thanks for your questions.
@@RickmanOrigami
By "full tutorial do you mean a long one like Ridley 3.0 and Smaug 2.1? Or like Dungeon Dragon and Ridley, in a series?
I think you are a very talented origamist. I don't think I could have been able to figure out Jeremy Shafer's Hangman. Bye!
Yes it would :)
Is it really 64 times 64?
No, Olivia Liau. That was only a joke. My Venus Flytrap model is 64 x 64 but the Tree is only 32 by 32. You could apply the same concept to a 64 x 64 grid, or a 100 x 100 grid for that matter, but then too much paper gets bunched up in the pleats and you wouldn't be able to shape the branches.
Rickman Origami
Really? If so I will finish mine up because I had it pre-creased but I saw you put in 64 X 64 so I was like "......"
onmg this is so hard
Hints to boost difficulty: try it with a 13 cm paper
Yes, folding this model from a 13cm square definately makes it more diffucult. Have you done that, imakuniaw? If you want to try something else fun, fold it with a 12in square of 20lb paper and wet fold it, using string to wrap the branches as it dries. The result is very nice looking.
Hey Tim can you make a tutorial on how to make a origami ryijin dragon head
Thanks for your suggestion, alex. At this time, I'm not doing covers of any other origami artist's models. I have, however, recently designed my own origami dragon. Pictures are on my Facebook page and I plan to have a tutorial up soon.
This vid may be a long time ago but I’m nearly dead for folding all those mine turned into a blob.......... I was using very small piece of paper XD 😂
where the dimensions of paper?
I used a 7.5 by 7.5 inch square cut from 20 lb printer paper for this tutorial. It is based on a 32 x 32 box grid.
I actually hated that part with 64*64 and oh boy I actually almost ripped my paper saying I’m giving up
Ha, yeah. It was a joke. I was trying different things when I first started making videos. I don't make jokes like that anymore.
Rickman Origami understandable because this was like 5 years ago but that was actually funny
He has to do the troll for the 10 minute mark.
I'm not sure what you mean. I made this video way before RUclips made rules about 10 minute videos. At the time, it seemed like a manageable amount of time for an origami.
Can you make ruyujjin 1.2 please
Sorry, no. I have my own art to work on and promote. If you want to learn about how to fold a Ryujin ask around on some of the origami sites and forums. If you are polite and not pushy eventually you will find people who have experience with that model who are willing to help you. Any version of Ryujin is difficult and it will take a lot of work on your part but you can do it. Or you could always fold some of my models. :)
When I saw the note I literally was like 🤦💆
When i saw 64x64 i said omg
im cursing for 64x64. hahaha. fortunately u r just kidding :p
Haha, yeah, Winter Tree is only 32 x 32 box grid. I'm happy I made that joke. It gets a lot of people. The model I'm working on designing now, however, is going to end up being between 68 and 80 box grid!
OMG. goodluck with that dude :p
coool
Is there anywhere to find the crease sheet and if you have instagram follow my origami its @folded_trees im going to try make this and use it as my new pic
No, I don't have a crease pattern drawn, besides what is seen in the video. I may draw one someday when I am not working on so many other projects. You could probably draw your own by folding the model, unfolding it, and studying the creases. I don't have an Instagram but it sounds like you're having fun with it. I wish you luck.
dont get it
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many folds
Have you... seen my other models? :)
Спасибо, Yakomoga Oригами! Будьте уверены, чтобы проверить мои другие видео.
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡when you put 64 x 64 I believed it then paused the video and folder a piece of paper into. 64 x 64 grid. Now I have wasted a hour more than I should have😡😡😡😡
Never trust an origamist. We try to get people think little pieces of paper are gazelles and dragons! Really though, thanks for having a good sense of humor about it. If it makes you feel better, I don't make jokes like this in my videos anymore to eliminate confusion. Thankfully, you can still fold the model from a 64 x 64 grid! :)
Rickman Origami LOL "Never trust an origamist" Well, I watch the video, then fold it. This is a great model for winter :D
64 x 64 grid? OMG 😂 😂😂😂
boo!!
bad
