Thanks for posting this topic brimstone. This man's work is incredible and to see it all at once on his flickr, well, WOW! I've never folded a tessellation, but I'm inspired now. That silk stuff is so wonderful I'm stunned! Thanks again.

Thanks for the compliments!

I like mostly modular origami but I've started to fold some tessellations and figurative models.

Hello, this a pretty old topic but brimstone, can you tell me did you fold the flower tower from the crease pattern or not?

Hey guys,

I picked up Chris Palmer's Polypouch Collection 2 CD at the BOS convention, and it's pretty awesome so far!

Expect to see some foldings soon :P

No none of the models are folded from the CP, all of them are folded from the references.

Nice work, Brimstone.

That type of paper seems to fit the models ( boxes ) very well.
