Gen Hagiwara - Rabbit

[origami_8]

Hello,

I'm very happy to tell you, that my newest instructional Origami Video is now available at http://youtu.be/DXQ_QCFDdPs

Gen Hagiwara kindly gave me permission to show how to fold his Rabbit. It is one of my most favourite models and I'm so glad that he gave me his permission to share this wonderful model with the world.

Hello Anna,

thank you for the wonderful tutorial. I will try to find the perfect paper for it. You said that you've tried different paper. What do you think is the best paper for the model?

Greetings

It works with almost any paper, but I'd recommend thin crisp papers. One of the most beautiful renditions I made was with black-gold Deluxe Washi with black for the body. But usual Kami works just as well. Another combination I really liked was with blue VOG-Crumpled paper for the body glued onto black tissue paper for the eyes. Duo-coloured Kraft paper also looked really great. The purple-silver one I show at some points in the video is some kind of stiffer Foilpaper that looks just gorgeous.
