For #StarWarsReadsDay : Darth Maul Animated Instrux!

October 4, 2013

Hey SFs…
To celebrate Star Wars Reads Day, Oct. 5, 2013…. here are possibly the most requested instrux of all-time: EZ Darth Maul!

There are better Origami Maul’s out there… but this one is simple yet has 5 horns and an arm with no cuts. (The light saber is a separate piece of paper)

It took a LOT of tries to get this thing to the point where I could call it EZ…

… but in truth it is still a little tricky!
Plus, these instructions are animated — not Kellen style — which will make it even trickier. Watch it a few times and if you’re still having trouble just leave a comment and either I or another SF can probably help.

Okay, here they are. Click on them to start the animation. (Then give it a second, because I set the speed to slow…) Have fun!!!

p.s. I’m going to give this Darth Maul away tomorrow at my Star Wars Reads Day event at BBGB bookstore in Richmond, VA!
If you can’t make it to that event, click here to see if there’s one closer to you!

Tips from Webmaster Sam

1) After you submit... be patient. It can take 2-4 weeks for it to appear, simply because of the number of submissions submitted before yours.

2) A STRICT policy on the site is NO PEOPLE in your origami photos, including you. (Your hand is okay, but that’s it!)

3) Remember, clicking on SUPERFOLDER STOOKINESS is the best way to see ALL the origami SFs have posted! And if you like it, comment on it!

4) Take a little extra time and make sure you've got the BEST picture you can get of your origami. Maybe even crop and rotate the photo using a website like: PICRESIZE.com.
