The Origami Forum

I would like to join what are we going to do?

Design origami together online i think.

cool when do we start? i could make a base and diagrams for it you could fold it and add more and diagram what you did and so on

We have to to first pick a subject to design. Will it be boxpleated?

ok but you first have to tell me how to boxpleat. I don't know any way of designing except just thinking of what you want and folding .
we have to round it down so let's pick one from the following:
modular
insect
animal
bird
fish
other

Other! you get more of a range! let's start with a sabre-toothed bannana!
I've always wanted to make one!

@ harpseal good Idea we could try that... first we need a drawing of what it looks like as a model.
@ cowburger13 thanks but what I mean is I don't know how to design a boxplated origami.

who will start with making a base?

Edit: have you seen my praying mantis diagrams? if not they are hear viewtopic.php?f=12&t=8034&start=450

Actually, lets not do boxpleating, it may be too complicated. I'll try to make the base!

How about we start with a graft or two. You could make a bannana from a graft and then add on details!

graft? Are you talking about the design technique?

Yes! Have a graft, then fiddle with the face, stalk and teeth especially, and your really close!

Grafting sounds neat I know nothing about it though XD I do have design secrets so I can read that chapter. Do you have any grafted designs?

Yes, 2nd arf url, sea monster (some posh name with "viperfish" in it). I can't think of any others.
