Origami Emoji Cube Dude

[Intermediate] How to fold my newest design!...a smiley face cube dude that sings when you pull its neck (or at least it lip syncs!). This model is from one square of paper, no cutting or taping. I recommend using a 6-inch square of origami paper. The model in the thumbnail is from a 12-inch square of decorative paper I got from a craft store. The domino dudes at the very end of the video are folded from 6-inch squares. The last step of inflating it is probably the most difficult step because the face tends to explode and if it does, you'll need to carefully put the folds back together as they were prior to inflation. Since it does have a mouth, you can reach inside and do internal reconstructive surgery!

The design of this model evolved out of experimenting with the traditional waterbomb, in particular, trying to re-purpose the four flaps that normally just get tucked into the pockets. In this design I managed to turn two of the corners into eyes and the other two into a neck and mouth all while keeping the head itself the same size as the traditional waterbomb... so it's a quite efficient use of paper! This is part of my Cube Dude series which includes the following models I've taught on my channel:

And I have several more origami dudes cooking in the designing oven. I invite you all to experiment yourselves in this little explored land!
