Hello, I'm Fox.
I'm quite shy at first, moreover I don't speak English very well (please correct me!) so my introduction will be short.
I live in France. I discovered origami in 2005 but I really sprang (can I say it ?) a few years ago.
I created just a little models. I love modular in origami, and geometrics ! Is there a topic for Modulars ?
I think I will enjoy the forum !!
See you !
Fox

As someone with a B.A. in English, I will give you a few pointers:

I discovered origami in 2005 but I really sprang (can I say it ?) a few years ago.

The English colloquialism for this is "took off. " Such as "After Yoshizawa's works were displayed worldwide, origami really took off in the West.

I created just a little models.

Pretty good. Only two minor mistakes. The first part should read "I have created" or "I've created." This is the perfect tense and differs for simple past tense in that it doesn't have the same disjoint between past and present. Also, instead of little use few as in "a few models." Little is used with non-count nouns, as in "little food," while few is plural count nouns like "a few apples."

I love modular in origami, and geometrics!

The English term is just Modular Origami and Geometric Origami.

I hope all of this was helpful, and I hope you enjoy your time on the forum!

When my computer "died" a few months ago, I lost my account too. Fox, it is me.
So I am an "old" newbie.
