The model is very well balanced and will fly well if thrown quickly. * Now enjoy your completed origami ninja star! * Tuck in both remaining points from the piece that’s now on the bottom into the top piece. * Do the same with the other bottom point. Tuck it into the pocket in the middle of the top piece. * Now fold a point from the bottom piece across the top piece. * Turn one piece over, and partially unfold the last step so you have two points facing upwards on one piece, and down on the other piece. You should now have two mirror-image parallelograms. * Fold the outer part across the vertical line you used in the previous step. ![]() * Make sure that both pieces are still mirror images. You want to end up with two triangular shapes together. * Now fold the outsideedges in to meet the vertical lines on the back of each piece. * Repeat with the other piece, but fold in the opposite direction so that you create a mirror-image of the first piece. * Fold the bottom half of one piece diagonally up to meet the crease from the previous step. Crease, then unfold to the previous step. * Now fold these in half vertically, so you’re back to 2×1 pieces. You could also use two different coloured sheets. To create a two-tone ninja star like this one, fold one sheet with a mountain fold and the other with a valley fold. * Once you’ve got two 2×1 pieces, fold them in half so that you they are are 4×1 in size. ![]() I prefer to crease it well in both directions, dampen the edge and then carefully tear, but you might find scissors easier. * The easiest way to get these is to take a regular square of origami paper and cut or tear it in half along the centre line. * This is a simple modular origami model, so you’ll need two pieces of paper, with dimensions of 2×1 (one side is twice as long as the other).
