00:00All right, this is the F-16. This model is designed to be super realistic, with a cockpit, air intake, exhaust, and reinforced wings. Very lifelike.
00:21So, first off, I recommend using 13-inch thin but strong paper for this build.
00:31For flight models, craft paper is a great choice for folding.
00:51You can take this F-16 base and tweak it into planes like the Su-11, my G-21 style long, F-18, F-101, my G-19, F-11, single tail fighters, but F-14 or F-15 style twin tails.
01:05Alright, let's double ta-ha-s start.
01:11First, grab a square sheet. This is 30x30cm cotton paper, same type used for the F-35. Fold it to the center line.
01:39Place the diagonal first, then fold to the center line.
02:09And then fold to the center line.
02:13Let's go to that corner line.
02:15And then fold the center line.
02:17At the bottom line, fold the center line.
02:23Fold the center line.
02:25With the edges, fold the center line.
02:29Put the center line.
02:31And fold the center line.
02:33Leave a stock line.
02:35This is a model.
03:05This base form is pretty flexible and easy to adapt.
03:23Try to take a look in.
03:36Study this structure.
03:37This base can give you ideas for your own designs.
03:45Now pull this area out and spread these two sections open.
04:05So, this base is a bit more versatile than the F-35, J-20 or Su-57 bases.
04:22The Su-57 base is more for twin tail fighters like AF-15, MyJeet-29 or MyJeet-25.
04:34This one, though, is aimed at single tail fighters.
04:48All the planes I just mentioned, Su-11, etc. are single tail designs.
05:09This model is also very cleverly engineered.
05:21Make sure your creases are sharp and clean here.
05:28Make sure to set your cord versions
05:30at different 보IS types.
05:35Make sure your creases are ast toys,

10:51There's a-
11:01Fold down.
11:08Fold down.
11:09This is basically a skateboard fold.
11:14Be careful not to let the inner paper layers slip.
11:21I'm going to let the inner paper layers slip.
11:28Later!
11:29I'm going to let the inner paper layers slip.
11:31I'm going to let the inner paper layers slip.
11:35Open.
11:51Let's go.
12:21Keep this edge aligned with the crease line.
12:39Then press it flat.
12:45This is a challenging step, right here.
12:51You also need to pull this part out.
13:08This is a horizontal crease.
13:10When you open it, align the edge with the crease.
13:12Press it flat.
13:32Next is a fairly complex valve.
13:34Open all these lines and arch the section first.
13:48Start by unfolding from here.
13:50You will see a small cluster of diagonal lines.
14:06You need to extend them straight up or to the left.
14:09And point of this crease.
14:15Like this, see clearly.
14:22Like this, extend straight to the crease.
14:25It has to be straight.
14:31If you fold accurately, it will be.
14:35On the right side, do the same.
14:37Push it out from inside.
14:43Like this, to this point.
14:44Extend this small line up to this point.
15:04Just like that.
15:05What you need to do is bring this edge to this edge.
15:24Before the step, you can pre-fold it to this center line, like this.
15:28This point must also meet this focal point.
15:55Crease only the middle section.
15:58Do the same on the far right.
16:17You need to fold this corner up for the pedal.
16:28Fold it down.
16:35When folding over, align this edge to this point.
