Complex Origami Parrots
I'm looking for any Origami Parrot or Parrotlike species, such as a Cockatoo or especially a Cockatiel that has either color changes and/or proper zygodactylous (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dactyly#In_birds) toes. I know of Ronald Koh's Cockatoo, but I'm looking for any others.

Yes, the lang Cockatoo in "Origami Animals" (http://www.giladorigami.com/BO_Paper_Animals.html) is simple but very nice, 3D, & with colour changes.
That book is very hard to find though - if ever anyone is in Windsor in the UK, drop by the library, as they have a copy! - all models are nice, and the lion in particular has a very interesting lock.

Terry's Parrot?
I'm aware that Terry has the simple parrot on , but I was wondering if the diagrams to the more intermediate, 3D parrot here: http://www.origami-shop.com/de/amasing- ... 7-986.html ,is published?
There's a parrot about halfway down this page that I like a lot: http://www.origamiaustria.at/diagrams.php?lang=1
Color changes, toes, interesting look. I've done it once, I think from an 8" paper, though if I remember correctly it wanted something a bit bigger.

Lang's "Origami Animals" is not what I'd call hard-to-find; there are 18 used copies up on Amazon, several for less than $20 USD...InsomniacFolder wrote:Yes, the lang Cockatoo in "Origami Animals" (http://www.giladorigami.com/BO_Paper_Animals.html) is simple but very nice, 3D, & with colour changes.

Re: Complex Origami Parrots
I have been searching for one speciffic parrot diagrams without any luck so far, so i was wondering if any of you guys could help.
it's supposed to be designed by a japanese author, but the only trace of this model is on old czech origami society's website and no one in cos knows who the author is
I'd really love to fold this model though, it looks fantastic
thanks for any help in advance
