So a week or so ago my friend taught me how to make these amazing paper planes called Acrobatics. When I got home, I made another one, and when I was done I was thinking of how to decorate when I had a brilliant idea: like a pegasus!
So I drew feathers on the wings and legs underneath (you'll see) so when they fly, you can see the legs and it looks like a pegasus! Acrobatics are truy beautiful fliers (I will post a video of them soon!)
I also made them into Sielfaci! I cut the wings into a different shape and added veins and coloured them differently.
Here is my main OC Stellarstar as an Acrobatic:

HOW TO MAKE AN ACROBATIC:
Start with an A4 piece of paper, it can be white or coloured as long as it's not too heavy but if you want to make it a pegasus then unless they are white coated I suggest you use coloured.
Step 1.
Fold the right corner all the way to the left side like so (sorry image turned sideways):
Step 2.
Take the pointed left corner and fold it to the right side as shown:
Step 3.
It resembles a simple house. Take the top point and fold it down to the bottom line of the top triangle like so:
Step 4.
Now fold the tip of that triangle up to the top edge of your paper (ugh image turned upside down):
Step 5.
Then take the tip of that triangle and fold it down to the bottom edge of itself (image turned upside down again and bad lighting so sorry!):
Step 6.
Fold in half outwards, so the triangle folds are in half and at the bottom of your plane:
Step 7.
Fold down left side to right edge of second smallest half triangle:
Step 8.
Repeat on right side and you are done!
Grip bottom of the plane and pinch together and throw to fly. Draw feathers on the wings of your Acrobatic and legs on the bottom for a pegasus look, or cut the wings to look like dragon wings!
Sorry if it was confusing but here you go! If you managed to make one, enjoy an OC/TGH character that can really fly!!
This is a really cool idea, do you mine if I borrow this idea for a drawing challenge?
Thank you! And no, I don't mind at all and would be happy to participate!
Yay! Now I just gotta make one
The first time it's a little tricky, second time easier but you still might need instructions, and after that you've probably memorized it.
Well, I'm changing the type of plane
Okay! It'll be cool to see how the feather and legs design turns out on it (or whatever other design you might be doing).
cool!

Thanks guys! Sadly Moonray doesn't fly anoymore because my dog almost ripped her in half and I had to tape her back together :(
Me and my friend have bought lots more coloured paper and we've made loads more, including Miststrider, Ashfall, Silverwind, Quicksilver... etc.
That's to bad your dog got to her, but it's good you can make more
Oh, and I don't want you to forget about my Pegasus Paper Airplane challenge. If I remember correctly, you were assigned Petalcloud, and you have until 8:00pm (AK time) July 30th to get your entrie posted
