This was actually really helpful. A lot of origami videos do half of the shape, then they time skip to near the end, as if we know how to do the middle part. When they do that, it's very annoying, but you actually showed the entire process. I sincerely thank you for that. Also, the icosahedron is very pretty. Thank you for showing the world how to make this beautiful piece of art.

[@welkinator]

Using the POV camera is a wonderful way to demonstrate hand made crafts such as this. It allows the viewer to see just what you see and therefore, just what they should see as they attempt to replicate it. (I always had a hard time learning knots when looking at someone else doing it in front of me.) Beautiful video.

[@marinaklimova1357]

I tried making this with other videos but only this one went through each step and now I finally finished making it. It looks awesome! Thank you for the video!

[@rosablack619]

Muchas gracias, me sirvió mucho, a los que se les complica les doy un tip, miren cada papelito tiene que tener 2 papelitos introducidos ( entrelazados) de cada color, así ya saben dónde poner ahora o introducir los papelitos y ya.

[@montseesquivel4560]

MUCHÍSIMAS GRACIAS POR TU OBSERVACIÓN!!! Me fue de bastante ayuda. Saludos.

[@CoralieEsau]

At first, let me say.. it was R.A.G.I.N.G! But I got hand of it! Thanks Origamite for teaching me awesome origami stuff. Ive been in origami for 3 years (started at 9 years old) and lately its hard to find stuff at my level. Again, thanks Origamite!

[@Origamite]

xXCocoDeBeastXx YT Thanks

[@cerealkiller3228]

To make it perfectly even all the way round, you actually need 32 pieces to continue the five-point pattern without ending up with six on the bottom. Good instructions overall though.

[@spontina]

So true! 32 units is tighten and more beautiful. Please post your instructions.

[@yeshupadmala8888]

I sure have to have to hand it to this guy, he knows what he's doing

[@jeffhall1803]

Thanks for the great video, it came out great, I will display it on my book shelve for many to see. I am very proud of it. thanks again!!!

[@obliviouscandybar]

I have been trying to make this since April! And no matter how many times I tried I kept screwing it up. That is until tonight. All of a sudden it just clicked, I finally understood what the video was trying to show me. I'm so glad I stuck with it. Now I have a sparkly and beautiful Icosahedron!

[@ek-cg8sp]

It's magic, I've made it! Thank you!

[@ieisenbart7703]

My granddaughter FINALLY got this but as a tutorial it might help if these had numbers on the tips so you could follow it more easily.

[@olayacovacevichherreros8619]

with the first little uniting united to the second, at half of the video i drew my own conclusions, AND IT WORKED!!! so now i am so happy thank you so much for that you made this tutorial, never have done anything clearer!! :) but the only thing that i didn't like was that you went a bit too fast :(

[@Valeriemlbb]

lol i did it with instict the video was playing but i was concentrated on the figure lol

[@nikolaicharrett352]

great tutorial i made one but the assembling part was kind of confusing so i just did it my own way.

[@2011Chocaholics]

Love how the structure is really stable. Great tutorial!

[@stephanieh6922]

[@jaymixo607]

so i divided post-it notes into 4 equal squares, used 5 different colours (6 units each) , and add an embellishment seen in peter keller's video (size is 1/8 of post-it notes) (kzbin.info/www/bejne/qp27YaBtaquHiq8) . the mini sonobe that came out is pretty awesome !! i'm working towards an even smaller one !!

[@origamiguy6431]

Loved it!

[@canaancasey5634]

I had to do this for part of an art project at school and the teachers instructions where as clear as mud. Luckily I found this tutorial, it helped a lot. Maybe I'll be passing art now, :P. Thanks.

[@minaart6246]

Thanks for great video. I made this ❤

[@matthewl6627]

Took an hour and a half to make but it was worth it

[@anyanasouslevent3426]

[@thehighestlevelbeing421]

Wow great creasing ;)

[@ayeshasaini8544]

this was pretty cool origami ball

[@jrx999orthomaspestano4]

Wait so I'm suppose to take a piece of paper make it into a square then make that into 4 squares?

[@kyleb.8894]

yes

[@TheBrilliantSam]

Size doesn’t matter, just follow the video’s instructions ngl

[@minecraftnerd5352]

can you do something that uses these pieces, but is of a higher difficulty?

[@kzukez]

is it possible to make the bigger version of this? a 6 point star? how many units would yo need

[@jull-yq3jz]

I do it! Thank u❤

[@joseytomolina3903]

There is like putting of other measures and it remains of 30 feet

[@austintupperware6071]

You know how when you looked at it from that one side there were 5 pyramids in a circle? And the other one you made with 12 pieces has 4? Can you keep going, making one w/6, 7, etc?

[@meili9239]

6 would become all flat I’ve tried but a combo of 5 and 6 works. I based one off of a soccer ball and it worked

[@lukepevensie]

can i use glue to hold the units in place?

[@jessb9267]

you can but that is not the point and it will not hold and look as good

[@dilaneduardobautistamartin3876]

Que wen contenido , aunque casi me desmaio:'v

[@johnelters4471]

How many units of each colour?

[@tobiokageyama4646]

I have 15x15 paper, will it still work?

[@crazycuz4842]

I took over 6 hours for me to make this bc i kept getting frustrated and just restarting bc i kept losing track where i was bc im stupid and it was going just a tiny bit fast but i got there in the end

[@stephanieh6922]

[@melanieluczak2419]

I don’t get how 30 units is enough to completely assemble it . . . What am I doing wrong?

[@LindaAmaliaMartinez]

Hi, what do you do?

[@brenolk4642]

OMG THIS IS PISSING ME OFF!!!

[@danicazeng8899]

Is this shape a stalled icosahedron?

[@Origamite]

Yes. It is the same

[@jrx999orthomaspestano4]

I know I'm probably about to sound really stupid but how many inches is 9 cent.?

[@Origamite]

Jrx999 or Thomas Pestano 9 centimeters = 3.54330709 inches

[@TheBrian123419]

Hello I'm Bruce can anyone do the assembly of the model I messed up 3 times I refuse to quit

[@shivangichopra6446]

This is awesome! It took a while but I got the hang of it! @Origamite I have a follow up question: Can I make the same or a different modular origami with kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHaalWuGnL2Yrrs as a unit? I have many of these already made and I would like to make something bigger using it. Any direction/resource will be of great help! Thanks a lot :)

[@madelinealcarazdiaz1834]

De 30 piezas uno me quedo con una estrella en el centro y en el otro como dice en el video 😂

[@gbowdeniv]

This is technically NOT an icosohedron, but rather an icosohedral star... Basically, if you: 1) build a regular icosohedron, and then 2) tape/glue a regular tetrahedron onto each of the 20 triangular sides, then you build something like this, an icosohedron star.I (Sorry, I'm kind of a geometry nut. Lol)

[@blizzardwolf0]

i made one but it was 27 sonobe units and wasnt round it ended up being an oblong shape

You went way too fast and with no explanation and where things should fold. Ended up getting an oval and getting frustrated.

Not everyone is perfect

[@jazzyoof3076]

Roy Loveday i'd like to see you try to make a tutorial

[@mad_mobmusic]

The point of it not being perfect is so you know how to do it. It would take more time to fold every crease perfectly, when the point of the video is just to instruct.
