Hello, I've been following this forum for years, thought I should join finally.

here are some stuff I've folded:

These are seriously amazing. I see a lot of Satoshi Kamiya models there, some that I've folded but yours look a lot better.

The two that caught my attention are the boat on the third shelf and the sith/jedi on the last page. I've seen those models in other places before, but I've never seen a crease pattern or diagrams.

Otherwise, I'm in the same boat as you: I've been following this forum for a while and only until recently did I actually create an account.

So, um... welcome, I guess, even though you've been here longer than I have!

I'd say the boat is the full-rigged ship of Patricia Crawford from "Creating Origami" by J.C. Nolan (or "Origami Step by Step" by Robert Harbin), while the Jedi/Sith model is a variation on Kamiya Satoshi's wizard from his first book "Works of Satoshi Kamiya 1995 - 2003".

Tremendous work! Only yesterday I finished the Lyrebird I had lost months ago. I am addicted to Kamiya's work. I have yet to fold the Phoenix, Dragons, and Minotaur again.

Wow! The sith looks great. Kamiya's wizard is one of my favourite models so I guess I'll give the sith a try. From my observation, you shaped the head into a hood and twisted the staff around to make the saber. Is there anything I'm missing? Also for the color change on the saber, the first method that came to mind is unsinking/stretching open some of the pleats in the staff and sort of wrapping them on it. An outside reverse fold kind of thing might work too but the paper should be too thick for that. How did you do it?
