Simple origami tutorial on how to fold a swallow paper airplane

A paper plane that looks like a swallow may not bring you further flight records. But it is undeniable that this paper airplane, which looks like a swallow in appearance, also has its own charm, because it is quite different from other paper airplane folding methods. You can see this just from the origami steps. The production of paper airplanes is relatively complicated, and there are many cutting places. This operation itself is not conducive to improving the flying ability of paper airplanes, but it will make the style more beautiful and attractive. Without further ado, follow the origami encyclopedia to try this swallow paper airplane, and easily challenge your favorite origami tutorials.

1. What you need to use here is rectangular paper. Fold the top and bottom edges of the paper in half, then unfold it so that you can see a horizontal crease in the middle of the paper.

2. According to the prompts, you can see that an X-shaped crease needs to be made on the left side of the rectangle, fold it out according to the arrow in the illustration, and then restore it.

3. Take the intersection point of the two creases made in the previous step on the left side of the paper as the base point, and fold it to the right.

4. Then fold the top and bottom corners on the left side of the origami model toward the crease in the middle. After restoring, you will get two creases as shown in the picture. These two creases merge into a triangle.

5. Open the upper part of the origami model as shown by the white arrow, and fold the diagonal crease downwards.

6. Fold the lower quadrilateral upward.

7. Also follow the thick white arrow to advance the lower diagonal crease upwards.Row folding.

8. Fold the folded triangle downward.

9. At this time, fold the two bottom sides of the two left-facing triangles made earlier toward the left top corner.

10. After completing the previous step, fold the two sides inward again.

11. At this time, use scissors to cut from the top left corner.

12. Fold the two triangles divided into the top left corner after cutting inwards.

13. Then fold the lower part of the origami model upward.

14. Use scissors to cut off the excess part according to the dotted line in the illustration.

15. Then unfold the origami model.

16. In this way, the swallow-shaped origami airplane for childrens origami is completed. I will also tell you how to fly such a paper airplane later. Use your fingers to pinch the end of the swallow-shaped paper airplane, and then release it forward with force.
