Lang Hermit Crab..... Weird CP

Post by A random folder »

http://www.langorigami.com/art/sealife/ ... b_2_cp.pdf

1. How do I find reference points?

2. How do I collapse the "circle" parts of the CP?

3. Wouldn't the lines at the "triangular" parts mean Mountain/Valley folds instead of sinks?

4. The weird shell parts (valleys horizontal to mountains) ..... How to collapse them?[/url]

The shell looks like its made from double closed sinks. I tried doing something similar (a single spiral double closed sink), but it didn't turn out too well :P Although his shell method (hehe I feel like I'm in calc again) is simpler, I am sure it is no cakewalk to fold it cleanly.

Hmm I also count more, When I tried 24ths the design still worked. so I guess you can use 24ths even though its not quite right.
