In my opinion you are asking for which is the most beautiful star in the sky!
I simply can't answer that!
Well... so many models.. no, I can't. ;)
May the shwartz be with you! ;)

To pick one is both impossible and insulting to any designer who didn't get picked as theirs being the coolest.

But some of the best are Kafar's Sea Serpent (This one because It was the first model i saw from people on this site:) , Attack of the Kracken, Langs Black forest cukoo clock (spelling? :oops: ) and the Ryu Jin.

I agree - I would feel terrible if I forgot to mention a model, and as a result, make an artist feel kinda bad :). Here are some favorites, though:
I hate to sound vain, but I like my shrimp. I think that the reason that I am saying it as one of my favorites is because it gave me a real taste of the satisfaction of finishing a model that looks pretty good. It made me want to design every model in the world...

Some of my other favorite models include most works by: Brian Chan, Robert Lang, Satoshi Kamiya, Joseph Wu, Jason Ku, Nicolas Terry, Artur Biernaki, Andrey Ermakov, Karol Kafarski, Shuki Kato, and everyone I forgot to mention :D.

Shuki Kato's Zoanoid Dragon. Off the top of my head.

But I can't really pick one. It's like saying who is better, Mozart, or Bach, or Beethoven, or The Beatles, or The Beach Boys, etc. They are all great composers who each changed the world of music in a very different way. This is as it is with origami, and most other art forms too.

My new Snowflakes…

Same reason as oyster. And they're really neat and fun to fold too. :)
