I refolded some of my older designs with kami! I just needed a break from folding all those 7+ hour models I've been doing lately.

This is a very nice collection, the first half of a book would be nicely filled with them. :D

Lovely folding. Do you have a picture showing just the dragon in more detail?

Stefan Weber's bull

Post by Ariel_A »

Sara,
that's a beautiful rendition of Stefan Weber's bull. Seeing Stefan Weber's models at a Berlin Christmas market 3.5 years ago started me on origami as a hobby, so I appreciate seeing some of his stuff on the forum.
Thanks, Ariel

Neal Elias' Last Waltz, Folded from Sara Adams' Videos, Despite the whining of the other YouTube viewers:

A purple and black butterfly using Michael LaFosse's system:

Open Back Hex Puffs/Star Puff made of a paper I found that is a decent analog for elephant hide, but without the translucency. Bleached after folding.

Thanks origami_8 and Ariel_A, also nice Last Waltz FrumiousBandersnatch, I think I'll have to fold that myself from Sara's video.

Ariel_A: I haven't taken any other pics of this particular dragon, but it's basically the same version as this one:

This is my first attempt at making and using singe tissue and foil. I used 40cm (give or take I only have scissors at the moment). The model is Robert Lang's tarantula from OI2.

I really enjoyed using tissue foil however, I still 'experiment' (make a lot of mistakes) with my folds and I end up with some horrendous creases. If I use double tisue foil will it be a bit more forgiving?

I modified my songbird base and came up with a Laughing Crow.

50cm baking paper, which does not come in black, so this is an albino crow!

Thats one lucky girl :wink:

By the way, did you have to tape multiple sheets together to make the 2mx2m square? or did you cut it from a very large roll?
