The Origami Forum

is someone interested in a simple diagram of my eagle. if so, i'll try to create a pdf-file to copy from. i would then be glad for some replies about the quality and usability ...

though it's not funny to give a reply to myself i'm going to tell you with these lines that there's a diagram for the bird available at

as i wrote before, i would be glad about some replies. in comparison to the experts in here my eagle is no real challenge but it's my first try and i would really like to improve my skills in designing and sketching diagrams.

Interesting diagramming style, GrizzlyMan.
You know, you can use PDF Blender to take both pages and make them into one PDF file.

Nice model.
The top left picture of the second page, it looks like something is missing.

Interesting diagram style indeed. It is not very conducive to new folders though and my personal suggestion is to remain within the already established norms.

I don't mean to take away from your design as it is a very nice model yet the diagrams are somewhat lacking in clarity. It was very good of you to try this new method and it is certainly more aesthetic in some ways although I would not personally utilize it.

The diagram is nice though it can be abit clearer

you're right, i left out the tip 'cause the step is just a prefolding and the upper valleyfold doesn't go through to the tip.

thanks for all replies! i didn't really want to create a new diagram style and i know - of course - that there's place for improvement. to put the two pages into one file is a good idea to try next.

i'm curious about a testfolding and may be a differing interpretation by you!
someone told or wrote once that you can call a new model origami just with the shared experience in folding. so if someone has already tried the bird, please post a picture.
