Um Hi Blog

Haphazard Origami

Ask the Um Hi Guy!

Um, Hi!

Despite the two pre-existing ask pages, I still get quite a few questions directed towards me specifically.

While I can be contacted at umhiguy@gmail.com, I’m always happy to help.

You can request that I fold something for you, but I won’t make any promises about taking them.

Note: I’m only human. I don’t have the answers to the universe. (Probably)

I had a bit of an issue finding time for origami. Luckily I found some spare time hiding in the back of my closet, so I’ve recently employed it for this purpose.

Hello, I’ve heard of making origami chopstick rests out of chopstick wrappers and I’ve seen several tutorials in this area. I’m wondering if you could make a rabbit out of a chopstick wrapper. Any help is appreciated!

Oh goodness. I can’t make a rabbit out of regular paper. Sorry I’m not of much help here.

I’ve never attempted to fold Plo-Koon myself. I’m afraid I’m of no help here at all.

2 questions. What steps to you subtract to make ig88? And how do you fold Bossk?

Remove steps 4, 10 and 12 and replace step 1 with a small fold up. Hope this helps.

Post instrux for 4-lom. He is the 5th best bounty hunter in star wars. 1st is Boba Fett. 2nd is Jango Fett. 3rd is Bossk. 4th is IG-88.
Sincerely,
The Mysterious Dark Shadow…

4-LOM is very similar in design to my Mandalorian, minus a few steps. Due to the similarity, I’ve never felt the need to make separate instructions.
