Rabbit - Robert Lang

Post by crossbird »

The diagrams for this model can be found in the book Origami Zoo by Robert Lang.

I'm having trouble with steps 21 through 24. Can anyone with a bit of spare time provide photos for these few steps to help me out here? Thanks :-)

Help with Robert Lang's Rabbit

Post by gordigami »

No doubt, a challenging section for many of us at one time .
Jorge J. helped me with his video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Is2mFu_5p-Y
It was very considerate of him to take the time to do a video of these steps .
Made the convoluted spread squash a bit easier to envision.

You might also search this forum for " Lang Rabbit " , as well, in that there are several references.
Once you're past this section, everything else is fairly straightforward !
May I wish success to all who cope with the mountains & valleys of Life,
with all its peaks & depths, as well as Origami .

Nicely done ! Your perseverance has paid off .
Each Easter, I get requests for Dr. Lang's rabbit, as well as those from Komatsu, as well as Jun Maekawa .
Thanks to these designers, and others, we have some nice variety for Easter !

@crossbird: Nice rabbit. I like the texture and color.

@gordigami: Do you have pictures of the three rabbits. I think it's always interesting to see the different styles side by side, especially when folded by the same folder. (As well as where they are diagrammed?)

Thanks,
Hank Simon

@ Hank
Thanks for your input, I absolutely agree , in that origami is pretty much a visual medium, that photos are always welcome .
The Komatsu rabbit may be seen at http://www.giladorigami.com/P_Rabbit_Komatsu.JPG
and the Maekawa rabbit may be seen at http://www.giladorigami.com/P_Rabbit_Ma ... enuine.JPG

@ rockmanex6
Many thanks for your posting of a new way to envision that troublesome sequence of Lang's rabbit.
This has been my Achilles' heel for some time, more than most any other model , frequently resulting in a " half-fast ", clumsy execution .
Must be a right-brain vs. left-brain vs. tiny brain sort of thing ...
Looking forward to trying your improvements in the near future.
