The paper butterfly has always been one of my favourites. I originally made it for #Truelove for Valentine's day, she still has the original on her dressing table :-)

I was delighted, then, to see that Michael42er has made a YouTube video of his Butterfly model out in its natural environment! Nice work Michael!

Aussiemarkvideos has a butterfly video here as well. Thanks Mark!

I think this attractive model may be not only for Valentine's Day give away.
To get a good mobility of the wing is especially noteworthy that all hinges are printed on the thinnest paper. Do not get adhesive on the hinge notch. Especially adhesive solvent diffuses into the paper hinge and it is hard and firm.
 

Good advice Michael! - RI

When the wind moves a plant and when the plant passes on the movement to the butterfly wings, it looks natural and cute. Great job Michael and Rob - Urmish

Catching up on posts, I have to say, this is a magical model and will add so much to our garden here. Thank you Rob and Michael42er.
