that sinks gave me a lot of trouble, though they are easy steps... make yourself sure that step 83 is well done, i had a problem there, you have to take 2 layers from the top side... step 84 is just sinking, then do it 3 more times :P if i can buy some good origami paper, ill take some pics =) also you can check in this page http://www.takwing.idv.hk/origami/index.html there are some pictures...

Kamiya has many of his CPs on his site, so you could try looking there for some (folders.jp)

His book is titled "Works of Satoshi Kamiya" and yes it is quite expensive, running about 60$ or somewhere there... but its worth it for experienced folders. I love his models ^-^ im half-way through his book now.

I think there is a CP published in an old Tanteidan or something, but other than that you are stuck buying the book. Sorry, if you want it, you have to pay.

Is the Ancient Dragon a model which you have to do 1000,00000000000000
attempts until you can actually finish the model.
or do people usually get it the first time :?:

look at mine, at the end of the 25th page in this thread. it is possible to finish it in first try with nice effect, but have to be very careful with all the steps.
