Here it is joined together.

Step 9:

Start inserting Row 11 with white units.

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 7/21

We will be adding 9 white units…

…and 12 green units in this row.

A view of the model at this point.

Step 10:

Keep adding green and white units.

Row 12 - 11 Green and 8 White units

Row 13 - 10 Green and 7 White units

Row 14 - 9 Green and 6 White units.

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 9/21

Step 11:

Now add only green units.

Keep reducing the number of units by 1 as you

proceed to the next row.

Which means,

Row 15 (but only green units) with 8 units, Row 16 with

7 units and go on till you have 4 green units in a row.

Step 12:

Now similarly add white units. In the next row insert 7

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 10/21

units (increase by 1) and thereafter reduce 1 unit as

you go on till you have 3 units in a Row.

This is the model we get at this point. Since we have

inserted the green and white units separately, we get

a head like structure with a mouth.

Step 13:

For the thighs of the frog, make this structure.

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 11/21

Step 14:

Make one more such piece.

Step 15:

For the legs, make the below structure.

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 12/21

Step 16:

We will need 2 hind legs and 2 front legs for the frog.

Step 17:

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 13/21

The legs will be glued on to the body of the frog. For

this pull out one unit from the leg as shown here.

Step 18:

Apply glue on this unit pulled out.

Step 19:

10/24/13 3D Origami Frog Instructions • Art Platter

artplatter.com/2012/07/3d-origami-frog-instructions/ 14/21

Glue on the hind leg.

Step 20:

Now insert and glue the front legs.

Step 21:

The thighs made in Step 13 are then glued on.

The math so far is:

Body + Head = 179 Green units

4 Legs x 12 = 48 Green units

2 Thighs x 19 = 38 Green units

Belly/Body = 72 White units

Step 22:

Two coils out of green paper strip have been made

for the eyes of the frog.
