Basic tutorial on three-dimensional cards [13]: Invert the V-shaped axis

In the production of three-dimensional cards, there is another type of axis shape that is very common, that is, the V-shaped axis. Through the V-shaped axis, we can make the style of the three-dimensional card more unique. How to make a 45°V-shaped rotating original?

The basic V-shaped axis may bring a strong sense of effect in the production of three-dimensional cards, because it can cause the components we need to protrude to rotate 90° when the card is unfolded. You can use this Axis creates the feeling that an element is emphasized or moved from the inside out. For example, we can show a little flag being raised, a cow jumping for joy, or a bunny emerging from a magic hat. If you use a pair of V-shaped axes, you can also create the feeling of lovers hugging each other and kissing each other or the puppy pricking up its ears.

In this three-dimensional card tutorial, the first thing we need to see is making a symmetrical V-shaped axis. This structure is usually used to hide components in the folds of cards. When the card is almost completely opened, the component body will "pop out"!

First, you need to gray out the pattern as shown below on a square paper (make 2 V-shaped axes)

The solid black line is the line that needs to be trimmed, and the dotted line is the folding line.

First, continue folding and unfolding the middle line, and then folding and unfolding the diagonal lines. At this time, you need to consider how wide the two small wings you use to stick to the card need to be. Generally, there are no specific requirements, as long as they are beautiful and strong. Cut along the top and bottom black lines, but also cut from the middle horizontal line. At this time you will get 2 V shapesaxis.

Start folding, where the green dotted lines are peak marks and the red dotted lines are valley marks.

Flat the V shape again, align the vertical middle crease of the V shape with the middle crease of the card, and then apply white glue to stick the left and right wings to the card.

In this case, we can see that the crease where the two winglets are located is a valley mark, which means that we did not hide the left and right winglets. If there is anything unclear about the instructions here, You can refer to the previous three-dimensional card tutorial three-dimensional card basic tutorial [11]: X-shaped structure three-dimensional card 2. At the same time, you can also fold it into a peak to hide the small wings.

In order to cover up the effect of this V-shaped axis, we specially cut two small flags. Paste the two small flags to the left and right sides of the V-shaped shaft respectively. You can see that whenWhen the card is closed, the small flag and the V shape are hidden together, and when you unfold the card, the small flag will suddenly "pop out". Of course, you can make some other cute little things, such as insect tentacles or antlers, depending on the main shape in your card.

Here are some simple examples of physical three-dimensional cards to help you understand.

You can see that this cake body uses the independent frame of the three-dimensional card basic tutorial [4] we teach you. The candles and numbers are used in todays tutorial.

The principle of the three-dimensional card below with a little girl coming out of a fishs head should also be a V-shaped axis. You can figure it out for yourself.

This is also true for jet skis~
