I did it. I had to watch video a little closer. It took me a while to fold head just right. At first I was ignoring the mountan view folds and the Valley view folds. Damn, this is weird. It looks just exactly like the video. |

Also, you have to shut one eye. It is kinda like staring at one of those pictures to where a boat will appear outa no where. The one I made was black and white, gonna do a color print as well. |

How did you fold the head??? Thats the trick. Watch the video and pay close attention near the end. Once head is folded right, your eyes have to "Adjust" to it. The head is actually kinda folded inside out. And very important, only use one eye to look at it. Stare at dragon eyes until nose actually seems like it is protruding outwards. |

When you guys try to print the diagram, does it come out on more than one page? It cut off the dragon on the first page I printed, so I only got half of it. |

Stephen, how do you make the head? For example, there word "Valley Fold" is written by the nostrils, "Mountain Fold" underneath the eyeballs, "Valley Fold To White Dot" on the skin fold above the eyes, and "Mountain Fold" at the base of the ears. What are they referring to? Just fold the dragon's head straight across? |

I've seen this illusion done with an Egyptian sarcophagus head. Came with it's own light too. Not as good as the dragon though! |

If you are far enough away from it, you don't even need to close one eye, and it works. It might help to understand that if you've folded it right, the face of the dragon appears "inside" the head, not printed on the OUTSIDE of it. |
