What have you folded lately?

I have designed and folded a flower tessellation. I have not yet come up with a clever name for this model, so any suggestions are welcome!

I Think that flower tesselation is absolutely OK. Everyone know what can expect: making of a tesselation and pattern will be flowers.

I recently went to the British Origami Society Autumn Convention. Here's what I folded.

Great stuff wizmatt, I especially like the alligator and the butterfly. Who designed them?

Here's my most recent fold: Satoshi Kamiya's Lyrebird, folded from the correct CP (the one in the lyrebird topic isn't right):

I also test folded his minotaur this morning while I was half asleep, out of notebook paper. It actually came out fairly well, but I left it in the dorm elevator for some lucky person to pick up, so no picture.

Good work Zoraz!

I test-folded Kamiya's Lyrebird from a square of glassine paper, about 9 inches on a side. I was thinking about modifying it to give it toes, and wanted to see how all the parts worked out. It's a really cool design.

I modified it a little, to give it color changes on the guard plumes. Not visible with this paper though.

And a crazy piece form a guy who's getting lost in a sea of Kamiyas...

Ronald Koh's Cockatoo.

From a 20 cm square of Nicolas's foil.

Where did you find the lyrebird cp?

The CP was given to me from someone who redrew it from a picture from a convention (PCOC I think).

Kamiya's Horse 1.1
Rough first try... I did not glue paper perfectly so in some places it tends to look awful ;D

Minotaur - Satoshi Kamiya

Test fold from a 12 inch square of grey tissue-foil. About 3 inches high in this position.

This crease pattern was remarkably uncreative as far as Satoshi's stuff goes, and thus quite easy to fold. Don't think I need to fold it again any time soon.

Making this sheet of T-foil was an absolute nightmare. It took me 6 tries before I was able to get a satisfactory side. I'm happy it came apart as little as it did.

Very nice, jared!

Just asking, where did you get the cp from?
