How to fold an origami barracuda

A slim kite folded in half and flattened low. Point the long head so the jaw juts out, snip and swing a small fin, and fork the tail.

You need: 1 square sheet (15 cm), steel grey on one side and white on the other, scissors and a black pen. Hard, 10 steps, about 20 minutes.

Steps

Crease the middle. Grey side up, fold the top corner down to the bottom corner, crease, and unfold.
Make a kite. Fold the two right-hand edges behind to meet along the middle crease, so the front stays grey.
Fold in half. Fold the bottom half behind along the middle crease, flaps inside. The fold is the belly, the sharp left corner is the snout.
Flatten the back. Fold the top of the back down behind through all layers on a level crease 3 cm above the belly, so the fish is long and slim.
Snip the fin free. Snip along the new fold from the back tip of the hidden strip forward, about 3 cm.
Swing up the fin. Fold the snipped end up behind on a low slant from the end of the snip, so a small fin stands on the back.
Point the head. Fold the top of the head behind on a long slant from just above the snout tip, so the lower jaw juts out past the top one.
Tail up. Fold the tail up through all layers on a crease 6 cm before its tip, slanting up toward the tip.
Snip the tail. Snip 3 cm along the tail's folded edge from the tip, so its front and back layers come apart.
Fork the tail. Fold the front tip down and back from the end of the snip. The back tip stays up, so the tail is a fork.

Draw a big eye, a long mouth line with little teeth and some dark stripes slanting along the back.
