Good Luck!

Robert is very nice, and serious about advancing the art of origami, as well as encouraging new folders and designers. Pay close attention to his advice.

Looks great! As the others have said, it isn't exactly new, but it is pushing the boundaries! I wish I had as much courage as you. I've thought about contacting some of the "origami masters", but have always chickened out. I've been very close to Robert Lang's house (I was in Pleasanton and he lives in Alamo), but didn't have the courage to meet him.

Take the chance to meet as many Origami Masters as you can! They have a nasty habit of disappearing before you can build up the courage, and ALL of them are very giving and very approachable. Unfortunately, they are also busy, so you get more credit if you are very respectful of their time.

The conferences are a great place to network....

I think Andrey Ermakov did something like this, but made a sphinx and pyramids.

Robert Lang emailed back about my diagrams. I think he thought they were pretty interesting. He gave me a little info. Maybe later he will ask for the bridge or tree i designed that can be added to just a small part of the paper in a city.
