Thanks for telling me, krt2, I always though Elephant Hide paper was unsuitable for insects and super-complex pieces. Maybe I'll buy it this year along with the butter paper reccomended by Eileen

Nice motorcycle, you could improve on the tidiness.

I know, the paper was a bit too thick for this work so hiding the white parts on the wheels and avoiding little mistakes was almost impossible

I designed and folded a toad from one uncut square

Great toad Cephalopod!

I particularly like the back.

Thanks

Excellent folding, Chris

Yep, its still a nice model, TheRealChris.

Anyway, nice fold, the paper, sharp creases and 3d abdomen make it look realistic.

Good Job!

I love your frog cephalopod! And the spider is great TheRealChris. Speaking of old Lang, Here is a lionfish:

It was really fun, but my paper choice was too thick, Again!

I love that model!.....its a shame it's made from a rectangle. I find it quite hard to shape at the end though.

Luna designed by Atsuko Kawai from Origami Mask - 20*20cm Handmade paper

The size of finished model is about (cm): 6 in length, 3 in width and 10 in height.

Very interesting model, an larger size of paper to make mouth more detailed might be better.

How, I think is a great toad designed by Cephalopod, and a beautiful tarantula by TheRealChris.

I joined recently, and I folded lately a 'Gosth', model taked for Robin Glynn's page...

Nice mask, though I can't really see its face
I really like the lionfish for its fluidness- good job, penselen
Nice frog, Cephalopod, really like the toes and 3d effect, though you could improve on the face.
