Jason Ku's Origami Page

Post by OrigamiMagiro »

I think you guys already know my website, as I put it at the end of every one of my posts. I think I will use this thread to notify the forum of updates of the site. Speaking of updates, I have just finished an article that should answer the question that saj asked in the "what have you folded lately" thread. Hope this helps!

I have just finished a rough draft of an Evangelion. Comments are most appreciated (even negative ones).

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the great article on crease patterns, I finally know what the red lines mean :)

Your Evangelion figure is stunning - the only negative thing I can think of is that you've not got diagrams for it yet ;)

I especially like your disclaimer:
Also, painting would defy many general conventions of origami. As such, please note that no paper was painted in the production of this article.)
:)

Wow, have I done a lot of origami lately? Not really. Last week Finals ended, but what with AP tests, extra papers, and starting to teach my origami class, I have not had much time for anything. I have, though, managed to produce one model to update my site with:

A Wasp... Different species than Satoshi's Paper Wasp with longer legs, etc.

Heh, we seem to be in the same boat. We finished CATS testing, it was only one question. I've been working on the prom comittee, teaching Kawasaki's cherry blossom units, folding giant roses ,and making large traditional lilies. I've also had to fold the wire frame for the papier mache mushroom. Well, tomorrow will make one week on it,so far I've folded 200 or so flowers,600 or so in all...I havn't created anything in a month with all the teaching and studying, but I need to with the convention coming up. The wasp is great and I really like the sharktopus. Good luck in your endeavors.

Hi Jason!

Basilisk is really impressive! :shock:

You have many great models that I admire at your website.
My favourite are: Gryphon, Luna moth and Basilisk of course :)

I have to try your CP's some day.
Greg, Grzegorz actually, but try to pronounce it

Thank you.

By the way, I revised the Luna moth last week so that one does not have to make such terrible divisions. I am currently going back and revising all my models so that I can fold them for the OUSA NY Convention exhibit. Hopefully, I will have some new pics for many of the models this week.

I've updated my website with a few things. It's the first update in over a year, so I'll be adding things as I remember what I've been folding...

I concur! I have been to your website many times before, Jason. Very nice models.

Hi! It's been a long while since I've been active on here. I deleted my Dropbox years ago, so some things, like my Dragonfly Varileg guide, are lost to time. I may still have other things, though! Email me if you have any questions.

What packing method is it that you're using? Is it as effective as circle packing? Because circles aren't exactly easy to draw...
