I have folded Satoshi Kamiya's wizard. I modified it into a monk (or something) with a spear.

It is really fun modifying the wizard because to asymetric shape allows for many things.

Thank you!
Kamiya's boar.
The nose is not the best, and the ears are very small, but it was fun to fold.

Oh, I was considering entering some of my models in the "Origami by Children." do you think any of these might get picked? just a thought. I am 14, so I am still a child :)

I think about three and a half years.....i'm not sure, no more than four years though. So, I still have some time to become a "master" :wink: I hope. It would be really cool to become like Lang, Kamiya, and others....*dreams*

Well, it doesn't matter how old you are, but how good you are (that really does not matter either, unless you are asking for help on some rediculously hard model.... :) ) So, forget about your age and fold! actually, a young folder has the ability to fold a model just as well as a old folder, just got to practice. designing takes experience, more of a time thing. the clock is ticking for me

Satoshi Kamiya's UNICORN.

My second attempt. :-)

I used spreadsheet paper (A3).

Looks good!
I would encourage you to use something besides paper..... :)
You know, like some type of foil, or, even better foil laminant (which does have tissue paper). You can shape alot better, plus a year down the road the model will not come apart.

Keep folding!

Thanks.

I'm definitely planning to take another attempt at the unicorn using DIY tissue-foil.

Origami-grade paper is very hard to come by in my country. Come to think of it, I have yet to find any suitable for the job.
