That was a part of a post I made,but I guess the edit didn't go through...
Anyway what I posted was:
The 1.0 is made from copy paper 8.5 inch square,the 2.0 is from 12 inch or so foil, and the 3.0(being made right now) will be from 2 ft foil( I scratched the wet folding and went for a better size). I have also just made a monkey 1.6 (more like a tamarin than before), but while posing it in a chenille plant (has red catterpillar like bloom "thingy"s,and looks like alot of vines) I have above the kitchen sink, it fell in a pot full of nacho cheese water and now it is drying.Anyone up for cheese folding?
About that dragon, there is a variation on my site under diagrams, Models by Travis Hicks,second one.
insert P.S. from earlier here.

I used my silver giftwrap foil, its alot like tissue foil though. A proper square of it is a foot, but I attached 2 2x1 rectangles of it together with tape on the not showing silver side. Its some great stuff to fold from, but the silver makes it hard to see detail or take a picture of . Since it is easy to fold models needing odd rectangles ,such as the BFCC, I use it mostly for those or other large/complex projects. Although it gets boring making everything complex or large either silver or white .
Don't worry Saj, I'm sure you'll get to monkeying around with it .
