The Butter fly is from origami insects and there kin by Robert Lang. I brought my copy from a seller on ebay but there are plenty of other sellers of this book on there and around the internet.

Kind regards
Steve.

Praying mantis by Robert J. Lang folded yesterday evening before going to bed from 15x15cm Korean Hanji:

Well, my cat found it tonight sitting on my desk, ready to take a picture as soon as the light is better and confused it with a real one. Obviously he thought it tasted a bit strange because he decided to wash it in his water dish. Unfortunately it seems, it didn't taste better afterwards

By the way, usually my cat isn't interested in my Origami, so I didn't even think on the possibility of keeping it somewhere save...

Oh no! Sorry about your praying mantis. If it makes you feel any better, my attempts at that model look about the same, even without a cat getting a hold of it.

Awww, origami_8, that stinks about the mantis! Such a nice sheet of paper wasted... ....well, I am sure that it looked great prior to the incident

Ahah Anna.
In Italy we say "we are on the same boat"

Yesterday night one of my two cats has give its attentio to my spider.
I was so proud of it (my first real eight-legged spider) that I've put it hanging from my kitchen chandelier...

It was the first time for me too of such an accident

Well, but I love anyway my cats and my dog more than my origami

What a funny coincidence

Probably we should be glad that our models made someone happy for some moments, so they found a good end after all.

Somehow it seems my cat knows that he did something wrong because he didn't dare to come near me half of the day.

Maybe we should take it as a sign and fold the models again. Who knows, maybe we can improve our folding.

Maybe you are right...
I've done it on last year halloween, and from then I've thought several time to do it again with tissue foil to better shape the legs and the body, without doing it.

Now it's time to fold.

BTW, very good geko, Anna.
Even if I prefer the Derudas one
