Monthly Folding Challenge - November 2009
"Folding Japan - legend and myth"
as a long term Japan friend I want to invite you to fold something special out of a beautiful and interesting culture.
Some keywords to choose from may be
- tengu
- daruma
- oni
- shishi
- kappa
- raiden/raijin
- tatsu
- inari
- samurai
- geisha.
Those who know and appreciate the impressive origami masks by Tomoko Fuse may also want to fold an own interpretation of traditional theatre characters.
Rules:
- fold from a square without any cuts and glue - if possible just one piece of paper
- find a new and own design - something special for this challenge
- give a reference picture of a model you take inspiration from
- no drawing or painting - just paper.

Why do Vietnamese folders like rectangles so much? Rectangles are bad for you!
I've fallen down, and I can't get up.

Vietnamese like rectangles and box-pleating. Japanese like squares!
