My latest model (Millipede) diagrams available.

Post by T »

Hello

I've recently created what I consider to be my best model. It is a
millipede (well it has 20 legs).. It uses a methods of cross pleating then unlocking paper to create the many legs. It has taken a while to diagram
and since I only started designing models a while ago it is the most complex set of diagrams i have made.

If anyone wants to have a look at the millipede/the diagrams/ the website
it is at http://www.origamiinteractive.com

In the diagrams section.

I welcome any useful feedback on the model: i.e what steps you found hard or unclear mistakes in diagrams or any ideas or comments on the model.
OR any feedback on the website in general

Thanks

Most people think that a millipede has 1000 legs. Some have as few as 80 legs. None have 1000. There is a species that have 750 legs :shock: ,but none have 1000.
Whenever I do complex Origami I get this sinking feeling.

Nice! I based my millipede on pleating and 45° angle inside reverse folds, but it doesn't work well with paper that doesn't keep its shape. It seems that your locks a lot better.

looks like yours is wayy less frustrating to fold than mine...
one of the hardest parts of diagramming is finding a good folding sequence which can be shown easily, so I'd suggest that you keep workin on that. the folding sequence totally like defines the model
