marissa this model had no cuts no glue or anything your just a dumb bimbo who thinks she knows everything about origami this model was made with one giant 2meter by 2meter piece of paper there will never be instructions satoshi kamiya said so at one of the origami usa conventions but there is a crease pattern for those of you who want to try it but only one other person in the world has done it so you will pretty much have to fold as many different models as you can before this one because it is one of the most complex origami models ever for the crease pattern look up ryuzin 3.5 cp i am 13 and am already designing models so if any person wants to try practice makes perfect !!!!
