New Kamiya Book

Yeah, I'm not putting them up. But it wasn't a very nice April Fool's joke.

[Ramiel]

What makes you so sure it IS a joke?

[Fluffy]

oh sweet. i'm pretty sure those are illegal without satoshi's permission though?

Unless they are for personal use...

XD I knew it

Have pity on us newer and probably much less talented souls. They might as well be quantum mechanics mathematics for me.

I could never fold that CP with my level of patience, which is next to none. Along with ADD and having to take some wacko asthma medication every day, I can barely do 3 steps on a diagrammed model these days :

level of patience

You hit the nail on the head. Young and inexperienced folders are eager to fold complex model with out any experience, experience that you get by practicing and by learning patience.

The more models you fold the hard way the more you learn. Having the diagrams for a complex model wont help you to understand what are you doing that much.

When I folded my first RJ the only complex model that I folded was the Ancient Dragon, but although it took me an eternity to know what I was doing exactly with the RJ the experience I gained is no where near that I have being learning from diagrammed work of Kamiya.

But all is related to patience, the more patience you have the more time you can invest in studding and trying to learn ways to fold a model.

Completely agree with you Froy! That's what i tried to say...

Yea, sometimes you'll need to fold a model several times before getting it just right. The key to success is persistence and patience, along with a love for what you are doing.
