Hi My Funny Money!
Sorry couldn't answer ur last question... I was offline. It's colorful and have different sizes for different nominal values.
Anyway.. I couldn't resist the temptation of the 2 money diagrams i downloaded last night.
So I folded them..
But I used a Rp. 100,000 bill which turned out have the same size as a dollar bill.
The picture of Rp.100,000 bill in the wikipedia link is the old one. There's a new version of it, which I used last night:

The 1st model I folded last night was Cat by Roman Diaz:

The 2nd was Koi Fish by Won Park:

The only way I know to access this Koi Fish diagram is by joining the moneyfolders_unite group in yahoo.
Those are my 1st attempt.. I think I can make them better

That Koi is pretty, the different colors of the money make it look suprising realistic

Wow! Have you done any other folds with your money? I would love to see more of your work. Keep up the good work!

Thanks guys! I love the color too

Actually those two are the first money folding I've ever done

and I think I will do more of money folding in the future in rupiah and USdollar. I love it.

Lol, I love it. Most people start out with something simple and "extremely" easy. But you? No, you just dive right in and go for Won Park's fish fold.

Hehe.. I saw Won Park's gallery in Deviantart. He made lots of complex dollar origami. Does he ever publish the diagrams of his work in a book?

Yeah...I don't really know. I'm part of that yahoo money group and I thought there was a thread about it. Maybe try there?

I think I saw a message in his group talking about a book of his about to be published. I am going to have to find out more about that

Trekker_1983 · Post by **Trekker_1983** » July 22nd, 2007, 7:52 pm

Actually I just wrote a message few hours ago saying that I'll be waiting for his book to be published SOON and available for online purchase.

He said we just have to wait patiently.. He's still on diagraming process.

Hmm...I'll stay on the look out for that to come.

He could probably get a ton of people to buy it if he sold it for ridiculous price such as $100. He really is one of the best origami folders out there that I know of.
