What have you folded lately?

@Tyza:
You should call your own design whatever you want.
I would not call it a lynx though, it would need hair on the ears to be differentiated from other wild cats (imho) and to be a lynx.
If you curl the tail down and sideways, and from black paper, it would make a pretty good panther (especially the muscular muzzle).

Good work.

Tyrannosaurus Rex Skeleton designed by Robert J. Lang from Origami USA Annual Collections 1994 and Origami Tanteidan Newsletter 26~28 - 25*25cm Cotton Paper.

The size of finished model is about (cm): 5 in height, 2 in width and 12 in length.

From single sheet of square! I believe with this structure it is possible to make a more complex T-rex skeleton, which would be very nice!

Agree with the other comments, not personally redolent of a lynx.

How about an ocelot?

Whatever, I like it, especially the head, and the implied tension/action in the body posture - nice work.

I can't say for sure but it looks pretty much like Mark Leonards Panther to me: http://www.root2studio.net/gallery.htm (the same CP as his Wolf: http://www.root2studio.net/wolfcrease.htm).

Me and my cousin decided to try this today. It's a variation of 'Before the Big Bang' by Thoki Yenn. It's folded from a disc of card, with the middle cut out. But that's it, no gluing involved.

This is a first atempt, I think i'll try it with paper next time and try to get the curves smoother.

i have acknowledged a similarity to the hyena in one of the late tanteidan convention books on my flickr, but i can easily diisregard it as a design of my own

helliluya: That looks great! I've set out to make some origami dinosaur skeletons recently, I've got the Triceratops to do next, then the Lang one-piece skeleton and also the Kirschenbaum one-piece skeleton (from the Convention '95 book.)
