His lion will be in the book Anna? I didn't know there were diagrams. This would be amazing.

It would be surprising if they wouldn't make it into the book as they are finished and only waiting to be published.
Hopefully the book will come out soon, I would really like to give this model a second go when I'm not half asleep.

Has the book come out yet? I just got done folding his Lion while painstakingly finding the references. I love the model, but it takes too much time. This last one I folded took 5 hours at least! The reason I like the model is it is my school's mascot and the styling of the mane and the tail. I am going to attempt to fold it without drawing lines on the paper (My technique when folding complex crease patterns). I love all Komatsu's models, but the crease patterns are a little overwhelming.
Whenever I do complex Origami I get this sinking feeling.

I recently sent an email to Gallery Origami House, asking them about Komatsu's book, and they told me that it is going to be published eventually, but that they haven't hammered out all the details yet.

If you can't fold it, try a bazooka.

It would be great to see a Komatsu or Takashi book. However , I believe both are on the same time frame as setting foot on Mars.
