Re: Origami-Artist-Galen
Taking realism that far and still being able to give it loads of attitude. I'm impressed.

Re: Origami-Artist-Galen
meh...i like some of your other models better. I'd say in my opinion the gigantosaurus is probably 6 or 7.origami-artist-galen wrote:Thank you! It's in my top 5 models I've ever designed, and possibly #1.

Re: Origami-Artist-Galen
wow! you are doing diagrams very fast :] i am getting close to folding the western dragon from CP, and i want to make it before your book will be released, i see i don't have much time...
but one question, the colour change on wings can be achieved just by using sheet of paper with different colour on sides? you have painted the dragon... that's confusing me

I expect 15-20 diagrammed models.phillipcurl wrote:

Thanks! And yes, the color-change is achievable with any regular origami paper with a different color on both sides.kowal wrote:wow! you are doing diagrams very fast :] i am getting close to folding the western dragon from CP, and i want to make it before your book will be released, i see i don't have much time...

Here's v1 from foil to give you an example.
Re: Origami-Artist-Galen
five minutes before i went here to see if you answered i figured myself how to make wings colour changed but thanks for answer anyway.
my test fold is almost ready, only head isn't done - but i've done it before separately
edit: uhh. my clean fold is turning into a mess. 30cm sheet of metallised tissue is too small, in the head it's too stressed and hardly keeps creases. ill try again from 35 cm japanese foil, but if it fails, i'll use 70cm piece of paper... it won't be too small

In the process of folding a new ohmu, using the gorgeous O-gami for the first time.
