About Butterfly Turumi

He turumi a Butterfly i whakaawehia e te āhua o te pūrerehua. I tangohia ngā rārangi piko o ngā parirau ka whakawhanaketia hei hanga mō te nohoanga, te tuarā, me ngā waewae. Ka wehea te tuarā me te mata nohoanga kia rua ngā wāhanga, e whai ana i te nekehanga o ngā parirau. Ka hangaia te turumi mai i te maitai rino tere-tere, ā, ka whakaahuatia hei mea kotahi mā te tā 3D, e whakawhiwhi ana i te kaha pai me te kanapa konganuku. He pūmau te hanganga, ā, kua tino whakakotahitia te āhua me te hanganga. Ka taea te whakamahi i te turumi mō te okioki, te pānui pukapuka, me te whakapaipai.
