Does anyone have any diagrams for any of his works?I like his models a lot.I'm especially interested in his Anomalocaris.Also I'm looking for a diagram for Satoshi Kamiya's diet devil.

What's the diet devil?
I like Fumiakis work too, but can't seem to find anywhere to get them from!

It looks like he just thinned out all of the points.
That's a lot of sinking.

How did he do the wings then?And the tail?There's also a crease pattern available for it,but I suck at folding from crease patterns. http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~qr7s-kmy/g/ ... evil_c.jpg

There are indeed a lot of sinks there (you can see from the many lines inside each "segment" of the crease-pattern), but it is not the Maekawa devil. Rather, it's a new design which looks like the original, and is probably based on it. The crease-pattern has some major differences with that of the Maekawa devil. That's why the wings are completely seperated from the arms, unlike the Maekawa one.

Someone at PCOC showed me pictures of various version of the Maekawa devil that exists out there. Some of them have four arms (!!!).

And back to the main topic. I doubt you can find any of his diagrams online (at least not legal ones). The best place to find his stuff is in the Tanteidan magazines, which I highly recommend to everyone. They are of excellent quality. You can find their contents in Gilad Aharoni's excellent book review section.

Oh, and Kawahata's legendary "Origami Fantasy" is supposed to be reprinted sometime in the future.
