Patty Paper

Post by Baltorigamist »

So a while ago I received several dozen sheets of patty paper, about 4-4.5" square. Does anyone have any experience with folding this type of paper? And if so, what models would be best?

I was thinking of using it to design (or fold) some kind of modular.

Isn't that the paper fast food places use to wrap burgers? Those are kind of waxy.
We all have gone very far from folding the crane.

It's a little waxy, but there's still enough of a papery feel.

I used it for a partial testfold of a model I'm working on, and it actually wasn't that bad. The memory is a little lacking (layers spread apart fairly easily), but it was easy to reverse creases.

My original question still stands, though.

Can you upload a picture of the model you are working on?

Here's the finished model.
I used foil for the entire model though, and patty paper only for a testfold of the thorax-abdomen connection.ImageCyclommatus metallifer v2 by Baltorigamist, on Flickr
