Heh, I was actually kind of being sarcastic. A spotted Ryuzin would look.... ridiculous.
But for the sake of the possibility...
Kamiya tends to not use color-change very much though. But I'm actually surpised he folds it out of white paper every time. Maybe the kind of paper he likes doesn't come in any other color, heh. I think it'd be sweet if it was a greenish/darker color.

That's a very good point-it may be very true, especially since the paper must be so big. Although he could use ink to dye it. Maybe one reason he doesn't use color changes very often is again because of his preferred paper-handmade paper must be laminated to another color sheet in order to get different colors on either side, making it thicker (and it is a troublesome process, anyway). Ryujin probably looks better without the color changes, though-since it is so complex, having only 2 colors might look awkward.

Well, has everyone here seen Robert Lang's model "snack time?" Out of a single uncut square of paper, he has a praying mantis eating another praying mantis. I think that SK should make the ryu zin 4.0 like that . two ryu zins fighting each other shame it would be almost impossible.....
Well, for anyone who has not seen the picture of Snack Time, here is one:

I can see kamiya can't be bothered to do super-complex designs recently. Ever since his breakthrough at 2005, he has been creating simpler pieces (simpler in kamiya standards)
Smile and say...cheese!!!

I don't know where you're getting the idea that Satoshi Kamiya's origami is less complex than it was-- on the contrary, I think it's gotten more so. It's just not so obvious... Yes, the Ancient Dragon and Ryuzin appear very complex; but structurally they're not so complex. Some of his more recent creations, such as R. Dorothy and the Leafy Sea Dragon, look fiendishly hard to design, and I suspect use much more sophisticated structures.
