Informal ODD : Chesscuber vs Langko

[chesscuber98]

Ok so the topics are
1) Tessellation Grafts : It can be any model but it must incorporate a tessellation.
2) Flightless Birds
3) Flowers
Rules
No cuts no glue 1 sheet any shape and size

[Langko]

Great topics, I am torn between all 3... but I will have to go with number 1 because I don't really use tesselations and it will be nice to try something different Good luck! And what's the deadline?

[chesscuber98]

Lets say 2 weeks so that would be the 1st of June.

Sea Turtle
Designed and folded by me from 1 uncut square.
Been feeling sick all week so I thought I would do a more simple model. Designed via free folding, first attempt. Folded from a 20cm square of terry tissue foil, boxpleated on a grid of 24. Hope you like it! CP will come in a few days

Looking forward to seeing your model

[chesscuber98]

Doesnt look like i can top that but i am still getting the details right so I will upload mine in a few days.

[Langko]

It's ok, you still have a week till the deadline so don't feel pressured that you have to upload something now

Here is the CP:

[chesscuber98]

Alright, here it is!

Origami Peacock, I noticed that the existing peacocks focused mainly only on the fan and left other details. That is what i wanted to acheive in this model. I got the feet as realistic as possible ( But sadly could not thin it down further), The Comb and the wings. Sadly its not perfect.

I am proud of it

Side view

[Rickygami]

That looks like a really solid design, and i like the details beyond the feathers! surely it could do with a larger sheet though!

[chesscuber98]

I totally agree. The only problem is that its really hard to find a sheet larger than the one i used.
Looks like i am going to have to tape a few together. I need to learn more shaping

[chesscuber98]

If you dont have any more entries we could start the poll.

[Langko]

I thought since you said you were going to have to tape a few sheets together, that you were going to refold the model out of bigger paper. But if your not doing that, I have no more entries so you can start the poll.
Nice model and good luck!

[chesscuber98]

That would take way too long. The model still exists after this challenge and so i will keep improving it. So, the polls up.

[spiritofcat]

That's a really solid effort, chesscuber98, very nicely done, just a shame that it ends up so thick.
Both models are very good, but I have to give Langko my vote since the result was much cleaner.

[myself]

They're both really nice designs, but I think Langko's turtle is more effective.
The peacock is also really cool and detailed. You both did a great job.

[chesscuber98]

I in fact agree with you guys. Langko's model has a very nice polished look to it. I am happy with my design. I will just have to detail it better
