are not exactly perpendicular to the edges. This form already suggests a mask.

Before t,Jou flatten this inside reverse fold. look at step Sc.

SC

INSIDE VIEW. Adjust the position

of the flat triangle so that it is centra!!t,J placed between the mountOin creases,

_---._c_~____' then moke the crease. ~

5d

Before completing the crimp

with another inside reverse fold. make sure you leave 1 cm (1/2in) of paper inside the nose ..

... Iike this.

5f

With just 5 folds (1 diagonal, 2 crimps. and '2 voUeys in the che;eks),

vou-have already created a mask. From here onwards, lim sure you can create your own variations ...

... or go to step 6.

Place- your Arst Anger agoinst the inside of the nose.

THE NOSE.

Create a rounded chin with a pleat Fold which begin about 1 cm (1/2in)

.. below the mouth

luck the corner right inside, as for as the centre hoe.

To finish the brow. we need to create both 'broken" and "rounded' creases. The broken crease is in the middle

90 BROKEN CREASE.

Hold your right thumb as shown. and push forword from the back with your left hond.

lOa

First. with your left thumb. press the middle of the rounded mountain mode before.

so that it touches the cheek.

lOb

Then, without moving your left thumb, swivel the pleat at the edge of the paper so that A touches B. This will create

a new broken crease under vou left thumb. Make a sharp crease.

Repeat an the right.

l2

first create rounded mountains (step I 20). then create ears by making volleus (step 12b).

These 2 new broken creases create tensions that press the cheek louers together.

Narraw the mask bu folding the left and right corners behind, as shown.
