Goblin Faces (aka Tessellation Faces for Dummies) by myself.

Those faces were created by flipping, popping, twisting, turning, ... in short by playing with wall segments by Momotani (from a 16x16 grid).

While being far away from the brilliance of Joel Cooper's Work those faces have the advantage to be easy to fold :)
So long and keep folding ^_^

I once made a goblin face tha was somewhat like that, but I lost it and never got to make diagrams, or a CP or even take a picture of it!

I saw this http://www.origami.gr.jp/~komatsu/etc/lab/anime01.gif on Hideo komatsu's website and i just had to make one, so i designed this, using some inspiration from the cranes on this site http://staro.s7.xrea.com/tenjijyou.html . SO here is the final result:

If you can't fold it, try a bazooka.

Tony Tony Chopper by myself from a 30cm square of Japanese foil.

As a big fan of the One Piece Manga and Anime it was only a matter of time that I would come up with a model from that series :-)

Made today in school (it was hard to carry it around :| )
The stuff around him is rocks that I just randomly made to go with the pickaxe.

I tried to fold 'dama' from http://pajarita.org but it turned out quite bad. After trying a few times i managed to make a variation out of it and made it a violinist (inspired from hojyo's work)

Cupcake wrote:White chocolate, whose design are those? If they're yours, then I am impressed (if they're not, then I'm still pretty impressed because they're really nice roses)

Oh no! I forgot to fold something for valentines day! :shock: I'll have to as sooon as possible!
nope. those roses are not my design. The diagrams are in my flower origami book. I don't know who created it too because this books was written in chinese.

Earth, your paper seems a bit too small for the dama model.
Very nice Luna moth and beetle, white chocolate.
And Fanatic, technically, I'm the third Bhudda. Anna has over 1000 posts so she was the first, even thought she's Admin.

Cupcake, seeing the paper you are using most of the time, you shouldn't really give advice to other people :-P

Btw, the CP for my Tony Tony Chopper is available on the Origami Austria homepage now.
So long and keep folding ^_^

Here are some more things I have folded recently (since January this year)

Satoshi Kamiya - Cyclommatus metalifer 2.0: Should have used lighter paper for this model, but I was able to finish it with copier paper
Image

Hideo Komatsu - Tiger: Folded from a 6' piece of washi, making some of the details difficult. I have folded this with a piece of 8(1/2)' copier paper and the result is much cleaner, but no color change :c(. This is one of my favorite folds.
Image

Satoshi Kamiya - Kirin: Should have used lighter paper (as I am finding with most of his models). I am finding that wrapping paper works really well so I will try this model again sometime with wrapping paper instead.
Image

Satoshi Kamiya - T-Rex: Interesting to fold, it took me several minutes to get it to stand up for the picture without using any props.
Image

Hideo Komatsu - Hippopotamus: You can see the difference in size between a 6' paper and an 8(1/2)' paper. This model requires a lot of pre-creasing, but I love the result and 3D effect of the fold (which you can see better in the second picture). This is another one of my favorite folds.
Image
Image

Hideo Komatsu - Sheep: Folded from a crease pattern. I love the color change on the face, ears, and legs. This will be my first reverse engineering project.
Image

Satoshi Kamiya - Wizard: Asymmetrical... blah blah blah. Folded from 8(1/2)' Copier paper approx. 70gsm so the staff took a lot of shaping. This will be another model I try with wrapping paper.
Image

Satoshi Kamiya - Bahamut (Divine Dragon): This was the first model I decided to use wrapping paper with. I started with a relatively large piece of wrapping paper and the model ended up a lot smaller than I had expected making it really difficult to add any of the details. Next time I will try a larger sheet of wrapping paper. I have provided a front and back view (I know it's happy birthday wrapping paper, but it was all I had in the house).
