Dear friends:

Some time ago I posted my own recipe for sandwich paper. I know some people has been folding with this paper, so, I invite you to show your models folded but just with this kind of paper.

I would like to remember you my recipe:: "tissue paper + aluminium + waxed paper or onionskin paper. All glued with spray adhesive. With this paper you will have a bright surface in one side and an opaque white surface in the other and you could use any side in convenience with the origami model, or both surfaces for changed-color models. Also, the paper is not much thick, but surely more resistant. It is easier to perform all folding process, even changing from valley to mountain fold."

"Regarding the wax paper I have found some other important uses. If you glue the wax paper to foil ( both sides), you have a perfect paper for studying the process of folding of new models you want to fold. When folding wax paper, the wax crack producing a thin, clear white line against the bright whitish surface, so, you could be extremely exact with the folding process. Unfolding will produce a beautiful cp with amazingly clear lines. Also, you can fold only using wax paper (I understand it is a little more difficult) and you could see against a light the distribution of the many layers of papers and you could correct any deviation. If you unfold you will have also a beautiful clean CP like a spider net. "

Some of the models has been shown under the subjet "what have you folded lately". Now I want to post this image here.

Best Regards,

That sounds like a good idea, I'm going to try the wax paper+foil+tissue paper sandwich later this week!

If it works out well, I'll post a pic.

So I thought that using wax paper would be an excellent choice for CPs given the reason stated above.

I think so. It remembers the creases, it makes it easier to do alot of precreasing and see what you're doing. I tried it with the Wolf's Squid (see here) and I got it. I think it was certainly easier than it would have been with normal tissue foil.

Don't let the wrinkled look of this pic turn you off, I'm just that way with foil, I'm terrible at it!

So I think that I will be using Eric's tissue-foil-wax_paper whenever I want to tackle a complex cp.

Eric your goldfish model is fantastic! I folded it out of six inch foil, I had some trouble figuring out a couple of the steps, but I think that even if I did them wrong, I did them right enough because I completed the model and it looked right enough.

That seems like a prime fold for wetfolding, I might do it later. Thanks for sharing the fold!

Eric your goldfish model is very nice,I might do it later. Thanks for sharing the fold!
Could you add the dorsal fin?I think you can sink the model's backside

Dear friend:

Thank you for all your comments regarding my goldfish model. This specific kind of goldfish, Blue Egg Phoenix Goldfish was developed in China. This fish is the precursor of very famous and fancy goldfishes, like Ranchu, Lionhead, Celestial whose special caracteristic is that they don't have dorsal fin. You could see more information at : http://www.goldfishsociety.org/blue_egg_phoenix.html

It is my purpose to develop some other goldfishes and fishes with dorsal fins. Thank you for your advices.
