Nishikawa's Seated Cat

Post by Joseph Wu »

<b>Nishikawa</b> Seiji visited my studio yesterday and he showed me his very cute 15&deg; seated cat. I reverse engineered it. This version is folded from 17.5 cm watercolour paper.

Yes, I am that Joseph Wu. Not that it really matters. And please call me Joseph or Joe. "Mr. Wu" is my dad. :)

Master Nishikawa Seiji visited your place? His tiger with stripes is my very favorite model. I need to think about how to meet such masters... (everything is about money, you know).
I folded his cat from one Tanteidan convention book (10th I think), this should be its siting variant or friend. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Isn't the striped tiger Hideo Komatsu's model?

Seiji Nishikawa also designed a very nice striped tiger. The diagrams are in the "Works of Seiji Nishikawa". :)
