One thing that I have always wondered is why Icarus has one wing, and one arm... ..shouldn't he have two of each? Nice fold, anyway. And Andrey - I would kill to get that paper - it looks amazing...

I suppose, the other wing has melted down on his way to the Sun (if you know the story)... I find this one-hand-wing a very clever way to depict the tragedy as well as the perseverance of the Hero

yeah i also think its a clever way to design it even though it doesnt entirely make sense. and its always interesting what people can do with asymmetrical designs. although i would like to make it again with 2 wings sometime

I folded Jesus by Quentin Trollop. It was only after I took the photo that I realised how to make the hair straight. But then again, perhaps some Jewish people have wavy hair...

Diagrams are available from Quentin's website: http://www.liveorigami.com/listings-details.php?id=63

VW bug, Charles esseltine.

Coelophysis, Satoshi Kamiya. (this worked surprisingly well from kami!)

Everyone together,

Well been a long bit but here are some instructions for a modular unit, I don't include assembly, but you may be able to figure it out from the pictures and one with assembly at the bottom.
