The Outside Reverse fold is a technique used in many Origami models to give them the 3D look.
The outside reverse fold is the inverse of the Folding a Point Inside Reverse fold.
- Start with a Kite base.
- Fold the kite in half along the center crease, then rotate 90 counterclockwise.
- Make a valley fold, by folding the point so that it now faces downwards.
- Unfold step 3.
- Slightly unfold the kite.
- You will notice you have three creases. A mountain fold from Step 2, a mountain fold from Step 3, and a valley fold from Step 3.
Turn the valley fold from Step 3 into a mountain fold.
This will leave you with two mountain folds on the inside. - Now push the spine created from Step 2, until it’s flat.
- Fold the two corners against the paper and flatten.
And that’s an example of the outside reverse fold. The next fold to master is the Rabbit ear fold.
