Could you consider the idea of diagramming/CPing/photodiagramming/videotutoraling it? I'd love to fold it myself but I don't even have an idea on how to conceive something like that, guess I'll really need to buy Secret of Origami Design ASAP.

To be honest, I've been trying, but it's an improvised model and it's full 3D, meaning it's really a horrible task to diagram this. I don't even have a CP + there were a couple of 'hacks' (such as an extra crimp to shorten a body which ended up too long). It's an improvisation I am happy with, but it is not a clean design. Forcing myself to turn it into one is quite a chore too, you'll notice I don't usually fold my models twice, here I'd have to fold it another two or three times to make a diagrammable version, a terrible thought ;)

Ahah, I see, well, thanks anyway for giving it a try!

I guess I'll add it to my to-reinvent list for when I get more experience. :mrgreen:

Thanks Chris, but we don't have winners on that forum, except in duels (and even for those, ties are frequent) :)

Not too many people pay attention to my gallery either. People will come eventually. Don't spam though :)

Thanks :) I'm far from a pro though XD I understand your goal, but you should change the message a bit, otherwise people will think you are spamming. Ask for certain tips and stuff. :)
