Hi,

Can someone help me with the ratio (or is it proportion?) of Kamiya's Lion's initial paper size to finished model size? For example, if I start with a 12" square, what would be the model's length (nose to tail) and height?

I folded from 45cm x 45 cm

Great folding Artur!

But, how much did that 45 cm paper reduce to? As in, what are the dimensions of the the model in this photo?

Himanshu, that Lion looks about as long as the book. The book is 255mm long (and folded from 450mm), so I guess the lion is probably half as long (or a little more) from nose to tail as the side of the initial square you're gonna use.

Thanks Quentin and Artur,

That's the information I was looking for.

Nice lion, I love this model!

Hey Guys !
Since I don't have much access to washi or unryu as such, Would a 38cm or a 50cm square of greaseproof paper work ? Greaseproof paper is baking paper , I like it because of the clean lines and the brown-ish colour.

Also what would this model be rated out of 10 ( lets say 10 is the pheonix 3.5 , For now;) )

this model is maybe an 8.5? most of it is very fun and relatively easy except shaping the mane. so if it didn't have the mane it would be like a 6 i think
