Obviously it can’t turn up completely, but the seven sides are quite close together in an arc. The antennae are very noticeable, with layers appearing behind some depth, but the most detailed are the eyes that use the underside of the green paper.
In addition to the video on how to fold origami PDF description Mercifully available for Android mascots. Literally, there are 30 steps, each with a corresponding description and diagram. There is also a handy legend at the top that explains the various crease and pinch concepts.
