Monthly Design Challenge / April 2017

Post by origami_8 »

This month you can choose to create something truly geometric, or a single body part, from a single sheet (regular polygon). So boxes, tatos, vases, or a nose, an eye, ...

The judge for this challenge will be announced in a week when the poll is over.

Hello, this is my first challenge!!
Normally I don't design or fold this fast but today I had very little homework.
Here is my baseball cap and a crease pattern. It consists of 6 squares and 6 triangles, and two trapezoids at the bottom for the brim. I hope it's geometric enough...

If it doesn't work let me know and I'll try again.

just to clarify, is it ok to create a body part from any animal or insect or is it limited to human body parts?

I don't see why not. As the one who suggested "body parts" as a topic, I figured animal body parts should be acceptable.
After the fall, we rise.

Not a lot of entries to choose from, so I won't get into a big discussion of why I chose which one.

Winner this month is firstfold with his cube.
NeverCeaseToCrease's baseball cap is the runner-up.

So firstfold will judge May and choose the topic for June.
