I'm glad you like it. It's pretty simple, actually. Just fold a grafted frog base and then sink and unsink for an hour and a half. :lol:

Thanks guys! It's actually pretty easy to fold, just time-consuming. And a good chunk of that is final shaping, getting everything in the right position.

Actually, whats the point of sinking and unsinking if you don't even use those creases?

Please make diagrams!

What do you mean what's the point if the creases aren't used? The sinks and unsinks are used to create enough points for the two smaller cranes.

I finally drew up the CP for my Cyclommatus imperator. For anyone who wants to try it out, here it is:

Not even close.
Going up from the bottom left:
.35356
.70711

Up from bottom right:
.26588
.73412

And that doesn't even factor in the grafts for the toe splits, which I didn't draw due to laziness (Oripa needs a "bring-point-to-edge-from-a-given-point" feature).
