Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
What about diagramming your simple dragon? I failed at trying the crease pattern^^

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
^ In fact Shuki had already kindly shared diagrams for that with us - for free!

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
What, so you're making a book? If you are, you are actually bowing down to the fact that rapidshare shal floweth with illegal PDFs, and putting diagrams up for download on Mediafire. That won't make rapidshare happy.

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
its a pain in the butt to make the pdf version of a book.
shuki's book will likely be longer than Kamiya's judging by the number of model's and complexity of them. I'm estimating it will be around 300-500 pages for the whole book. I highly doubt someone will have the patience to photocopy 300+ pages.
and by the speed he did the previous model, i think he could diagram ZD2 in about a month or two...just saying

You're western dragon is literally my favorite origami model. If you make an origami book, I'll definitely buy it and struggle to make your beautiful models.

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
I'm looking forward to the book, myself. But dude, there are a TON of books on rapidshare etc that are more than 300 pages long. Not that I would ever have done this when I was a college student and couldn't have the books I needed long enough from Interlibrary Loan, but photocopying a 300 page book can easily be done in significantly less than an hour, and nowadays the copiers are faster and make the PDFs automatically.phillipcurl wrote:its a pain in the butt to make the pdf version of a book.

I wouldn't count on length being any kind of deterrent.

still, that doesn't mean that someone will necessarily photocopy it.fncll wrote:I wouldn't count on length being any kind of deterrent.
thats one of my favorites, but i like every one of the models that he is planning on publishing.narcolepticsloth wrote:You're western dragon is literally my favorite origami model. If you make an origami book, I'll definitely buy it and struggle to make your beautiful models.
I'd have to say my favorite would either be the Kabutomushi (Shuki's version is much better than Satoshi's in my opinion) or Ohmu. I can't really choose because they are all great, and thats the same for me with Kamiya, Lang, Chan, etc. I like all their models equally.

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
Diagrams for my bear cub are complete.
Is it the most impressive model in the world? No, but it is one of the first models I ever designed and it has a pretty unusual folding sequence.

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
it is quite a good model. can't wait to fold it.
Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
That model is quite nice. Are you considering diagramming Zoanoid Dragon 2.0?? And when your book comes out, ill be buying it.

Thanks! I wouldn't bet on the Zoanoid Dragon being diagrammed this time around, maybe afterwards in a separate book;)Fluffy wrote:That model is quite nice. Are you considering diagramming Zoanoid Dragon 2.0?? And when your book comes out, ill be buying it.
I'm working on diagrams for the triceratops now...

Re: Should Shuki Kato make a book?
Okay guys, I've decided to make the Western Dragon diagrams public. Originally I sent them to a select few people for proofreading and improving clarity (and as a result, had to make more edits than I would have liked), but I was a bit uncomfortable with that decision from the get-go. These are the only diagrams from the book that I'll be releasing publicly in PDF format and I plan to edit the rest mostly on my own.
