Sword in the Stone 2.0. I've adjusted the design to fix the proportions - bigger stone, narrower sword.

A re-working of an old design. Same base, but complete redesign of the head and tail.

Sea Serpent

Designed and folded by Mike Case.
Single square of back-coated lokta.

Nice sea serpent! I had actually been wanting to fold one like that for a while, but I guess you bet me to it. :)

That is an awesome sea serpent! Great paper choice also. I can't wait to see what you come up with next. :D

Stumbled upon this design while trying to recreate a Kitsune I designed a couple years ago.

This was one of my first designs, but at the time I designed it it was a little outside of my ability to fold nicely. I just revisited it with the help of some Thai Banana paper - fitting, in a poetic sense, but too full of bark and stuff to be nice for folding. I might try it again at some point with better paper.

New model. Definitely the trickiest fold I've ever designed.

These grapes have a really great effect, I liked it a lot. And it looked so in place among the vines...

I read a comment elsewhere in the forum stating that it's good to see designs that escape from the (somewhat) common place of animals. I do love animals, but I also agree that there's a whole universe of things (and plants, and whatever...) waiting to be turned into origami.

Well, I think these grapes are a beautiful example of what we can come up with beyond the animal world.

I just finished a set of instructions for my Grapes. There are some CPs, some step folds, and some descriptions, but it isn't a full set of diagrams. It should be enough so that a reasonably experienced folder can recreate the model, though.
