Nobody wants to show so I will torture you guys with some more of my begginer stuff. Feel free to critque, bad or good. I can take it. So here is a lion from Zulal Aytuire-Scheele. I went to the library for this book.

OK. So after I got done with the lion I posted 2 posts above I figured I'd give a difficult one a try. So I had bought this book by Robert Lang. On the cover is a Lion. He used a 16" square and all I had was 8.5x11 lazer paper which I cut to 8.5x8.5. I think I may have to try this again with larger paper. The front legs didn't work out and I forced it. If someone knows that step I could sure use some help with it. I'm really just so new to this difficult level. Many steps I had never seen before and it took me about 1 and 3/4 hours to finish it.

Using smaller can often be fun, especially if you're using something like copy paper. It's fun to see whether you can get something decent out of such small, bland paper

Although I know that many would disagree

I folded Brian Chan's One Sheet Rose again. This time I used thinner paper.

nice works aznman
and good job on the one-sheeted rose phil!

the thin paper is really wort it for this model - you should try the thorned version

Origami light side vs. dark side

And no, no Photoshop...

awesome stuff everyone! i haven't posted lately either (absolutely inundated with work and commitments) but folded this 5-piece spiral as a break from calculus:

then i realised that in a way, an expression for the volume of the model was sort of like a geometric series, with a sum to infinity. so i guess it wasn't much of a break from maths

model is from "spiral unit folding" or something by tomoko fuse. an awesome book, pick up a copy if you can..
