Monthly Folding Challenge: December 2013
This month's topic will be Color Change.
This has always been a personal favorite element of origami--the abiłity to skillfully use both sides of the sheet to depict different parts of the model. So design your Santas (since it's December ) and zebras and whatever else you can think of.
RULES:
-One uncut square
-No tape or glue
-MC allowed for shaping

I'm here for the fist time and decided to start with my own design of a dragonfly. It's boxpleated from a square. The color change is obvious.
edit: corrected boxbleating

Welcome to the forum! Dragonfly looks awesome! Great job!

boxbleating: baaaaaing at a box of paper until it spontaneously folds itself...
Re: Monthly Folding Challenge: December 2013
Edit: A different angle...
Goblin Mask, from a fish base. I added two small strip grafts for the eyes which gave extra paper for the tongue and a nice lock for the top of the nose which holds it all together. Folded from a 10cm square of washi (momi?) painted on one side with acrylic. A really nice looking paper but hard to fold with, I mucked up one side

Re: Monthly Folding Challenge: December 2013
Hi,
my origami models are usually made by play around with paper and are 1 colored so I found this harder than normal. This is a basic model of gremlin (from the movie).

Since I'm new, is there a winner, if so how is this decided and is there a better way to make models especially the double sided ones.
Thanks a lot.

Re: Monthly Folding Challenge: December 2013
Totally didn't relize that colour change was the topic for this month... I need to pay more attention
Anyway since I designed this earlier this month I'll enter it:
Butterfly.
Folded from a 50cm square of double tissue. Boxpleated on a grid of 40. Yes it does have legs...
I focussed on getting good colour changes into the design and I think I succeeded. Hope you like it!

The only limit in origami is your imagination and your patience
