starship Sphenocorona

Explore the galaxies in Starship Sphenocorona.

Step 2

Cutout the five pattern pieces by cutting on all black lines; one of Part 1, two of Part 2, and two of Part 3.

STEP 3

On each of the five parts, fold the red lines as mountain folds and the green lines as valley folds. I highlighted my small craft landing bay (two triangles on Part 1) in yellow; and my propulsion system (three rectangles on each Part 3) in purple.

Step 4

Complete Part 1. Glue Flap A to the other Flap A, Flap C to the other Flap C, Flap E to the other Flap E, Flap H to the other Flap H, Flap J to the other Flap J, Flap F to the other Flap F, Flap G to the other Flap G, Flap D to the other Flap D, Flap B to the other Flap B, and Flap K to the other Flap K.

Step 5

Complete the two Part 2’s. On each, glue Flap H to the other Flap H, Flap K to the other Flap K, Flap F to the other Flap F, Flap J to the other Flap J, Flap G to the other Flap G, and Flap A to the other Flap A.

step 6

Complete the two Part 3’s. On each, glue Flap Q to the other Flap Q, Flap P to the other Flap P, Flap O to the other Flap O, Flap C to the other Flap C, Flap R to the other Flap R, Flap S to the other Flap S, Flap T to the other Flap T, and Flap B to the other Flap B.

Step 7

Connect each Part 3 to a Part 2. Glue Flaps L, M, E, N, and D on Part 3 to the similarly labelled flaps on Part 2.

Step 8

Complete the Starship Sphenocorona by attaching each Part 2/3 assembly to Part 1. Do this by gluing the square face on each Part 2/3 assembly to one of the square faces on Part 1.
