I actually really like this frog a lot, does anyone know who's frog it is? I folded this one, but I don't know who designed it.

The frog is designed by John Montroll, diagrams in Origami for the Enthusiast.

Are you sure? It looks maybe like a variation but still a tad different.

I like your dog....although you might want to fix the gut a little because it looks a bit fat. Kind of like a pig......hmmmmm...I just made a pig:

Lyrebird by Satoshi Kamiya

Image

Folded from a 25cm square of double tissue paper (MC treated).

While the end result is okay (I'm not very happy with it) the folding sequence isn't much fun. It involves a lot of boring sink in and out and you get quite a lot of layers which makes shaping difficult especially for the tail feathers.

The wings are very interesting though and turn out nicely rounded, and making the tail corrugation is fun :-)

The hardest task was making the bird stand on its two feet but I somehow managed to make it stand long enough to take some pictures. No camera tricks, wire or similar used, just a lot of patience :wink:
So long and keep folding ^_^

I found a paper store nearby; however, they didn't have very nice paper for origami except this cottony handmade paper I bought and used to fold Forcher's Fox and Enomoto's Elephant.

I like the effect of the fibers sticking out. :)

the frog on the cover of the book is a variation of the frog folded above, which is indeed by montroll (one of my favorite frogs). it just has toes grafted in.

Haha, I like the drunk warus, Paulius :). I don't know if this will sound like a compliment, but it is one: They do look very drunk :).
