Models For Tissue Foil
I have a good supply of tissue foil which I made and I want to know some good models to fold with it. Any suggestions?
We all have gone very far from folding the crane.

What size? Anyway, maybe Nguyen Hung Cuong's Eagle, Kamiya's Ancient dragon, Kamiya's Ryuin 2.1 (I did it from 60x60cm), Kamiya's Phoenix. Those are just some models I have folded with it, but from a large sheet (60x60 cm)

Hi,
You can also make modular origami with foil paper.

Re: Models For Tissue Foil
Sorry for not being specific. I have home-made tissue foil with which I can make a 45*45 cm square. The leftover paper is too small to make a good model.

I recently folded Lang's Eupatorus Gracilicornis from Insects II out of tissue foil. The folding was quite a disaster but the result is very good. It's a decent paper for insects. I dont know if box-pleated insects work though (I've only folded origamipete's camel spider 4.0 which wasn't much of a succes and I don't know if I can blame the paper for that).
Quyet's horse from 50 Hours of Origami is also well suited for tissue foil and not very hard to fold.

I folded Lang's Roosevelt Elk and apparently my new batch of tissue foil came out a little thick for a good model. Maybe I should have used double tissue paper or something else. With the small leftover tissue foil paper I have left, I folded Joisel's Rat and it was perfect.

Generally speaking, boxpleating works wonders, high intermediate models and over as well. I found that all of Kamiya's models work well with it, and 45cm is a good length for them. You can always indicate which books you own, it might be easier to pick specific models for you this way.
I will be biaised, though, and say that you can fold just about anything with tissue foil , as long as you don't rush your folding (else it looks messy).

Well, I have Works of Satoshi Kamiya 2. I will try some models with my tissue foil. I'm looking at Cerberus right now.

Re: Models For Tissue Foil
The only Kamiya model I don't recommend folding with tissue foil is the little bird. Since the model is 3D, it will wrinkle easily.
