Saturday January 30th and Sunday January 31st - the diving duck

This is the first time that the weekend project has merited the use of an entire weekend to get it right. Very fiddly business.
The diagrams are covered with wavy arrows everywhere and references to the inside reverse fold. Problem, the instructions for the inside reverse fold are folded into another origami creation. not sure which one. This is one of the days when using the paper from the day before hasn't really proven useful. Instead, i had to dig into the depths of my memories to try and remember what the inside reverse fold looked like. I finally worked it out and once i had done that, all i had to do was that crazy fold i learnt yesterday.
my diving duck's tail doesn't look like the tail in the picture, but i thought it was close enough. and my duck's head does dive so at least thats somthing. although i do think that if i tried to put it in water it would sink.And this is what you get when you push the head down:Yeah i know, it doesn't really look like its diving. what can i say. im really not very good at this origami stuff......
