Making origami 'Snowman' from the modules

To make the origami "Snowman" will need modules made from ordinary office paper. It is best if their required number is prepared in advance, before the assembly begins. The entire snowman will consist of 946 units of white modules and 176 pieces of color.

In the company it's always fun to work, so preparing for assembly and turning the components into a merry snowman will pass with enthusiasm no less than modeling in the yard of a real snow figure from freshly fallen snow. It is especially interesting to carry out such work with children on New Year's Eve, to decorate the house and the Christmas tree with toys of their own making.

But do not wait for snow, if you can get so much pleasure from the collective friendly work on creating a snowman from paper parts.
The necessary number of modules is ready, you can start assembling the origami "Snowman". Let me remind you that this is modular origami, the snowman's assembly schemes are rather intricate, so strict adherence to the sequence of assembly steps is mandatory.

The order of assembly is as follows:
- to build the first three rows, we count 102 modules, 34 pieces per row. We begin to collect the first and second rows simultaneously, and when four modules in each row are connected together, three rows are collected at a time;

- after all the modules have formed a chain of three rows, we close it in a ring;

- Now the received ring should be turned over and the top part is carefully turned out. This is done so that the body of the snowman begins to acquire a rounded shape. In the next, fourth row, the number of modules should be increased by 6 pieces. Add them evenly, in those places on a pair of adjacent corners instead of one module two are put on. Now in the series there will already be 40 modules, and such series should be collected fifteen, constantly trying to give them the shape of a ball;

- the sixteenth row will be smaller. It must consist of 36 modules, for this purpose, in two places opposite each other, we put on two modules per three corners;

- the next stage will be the beginning of creating a head for origami "Snowman". The first row is made of 36 modules, which are put outward by a right angle. Then the modules are fixed in the same way as in the beginning of the work. Together with the first row you need to collect nine rows. Do not forget that the head should also become a spherical shape.

- now you can take care of the design of origami "Snowman". We will make a face and hands of flagella rolled from corrugated paper. For the eyes, you can use mugs cut from velvet paper, and the nose will be a carrot, for which a piece of red paper needs to be rolled up with a cone. All blanks are gently glued to the craft.

- Green modules are perfect for a hat, in which a snowman will be dressed. To begin with, you should prepare a chain that will consist of 22 modules in each row. There should be three such rows. Again, as in the beginning of the work, we connect the chain into a ring and turn it out. Add one more row, using the contrast color modules , for example, yellow. We continue to work again with modules of green color. In total, the cap should have eight modular rows.

- The final stage will be the final assembly of the origami "Snowman". We dress the snowman in his brand new hat. To make it even more elegant and original, you can add any decorative details - put a belt on it, glue on the buttons. In the hands of a snowman, it is very natural to look like a broom, which can also be made from colored paper.

So we dismantled how the next origami is made from paper. Schemes of "Snowman" can be suitable for performing such figures, for example, nesting dolls. True, you have to work hard to make adjustments and a variety of colors when building modules.
