Hoang Tien Quyet's Swan

inspired by Star Prism by Francesco Mancini

Gerry Hsu (I think)'s Dog In A Dog House

Dave Brill's Lion

and Roman Diaz's Vixen

I need a better camera...

Madarko, I think your camera is good enough, but you need to hold it further away from the models. The background is pretty sharp while the models are blurry, that means that you focused wrong. Go further away and cut out the part you want to show, that should improve your pictures.
By the way, very good rendition of the dog in a doghouse.

Knob Box by Jorge E Jaramillo folded from 15cm kami (small one) and 29cm very stiff paper (big one).

Wasp version 2. One square of foil-backed paper. Diagrams will be submitted to a book, convention pack or journal soon...

You've drawn diagrams? Great! Let me know where they are getting published. I still think it's the best wasp design out there, but even if you showed me how to do it on this one convention I couldn't reproduce it at home. So glad to hear you've drawn diagrams.
Your new folding of the wasp looks perfect

Ancient Dragon
by Satoshi Kamiya
64x64cm "tissue-foil" from Nicholas Terry's shop

I like this paper alot

but the foil does rub off and color your fingers but i dont mind that too much. I love the way it looks too =]

EDIT: Another note: i was also really surprised at how durable the "tissue-foil" was, it didnt rip at all when i folded the AD. I also folded Geometric Hen by Roman Diaz... 6" Kami.

Folded this Umulius Rectangulum designed by Thoki Yenn, I know it's an oldie but it was one of the first modular things I tried, I failed to make it back then because I wasn't that experienced yet. Still one of my most favourite Modulair designs.
