Origami Dragon
Hello everyone!
Sorry for my english...
I like paper folding.
When I was young, I made basic things.
These days I try to make more complex folds.
I like modular thing, and I made a few balls.
But...
2 days ago, I find a Dragon diagram.
I like to fold it, but I stuck...
I fold the entire modell except the head
Here is the diagram : http://shape.fw.hu/Origami%20Dragon.pdf
Anyone fold this model??

With what steps of the head are you having troubles?
HEAD
1-4 step is ok
But I can't understand the 5th.
Under it, i think in english : repeat it on the other 3 side.
But it do something in the 5th step...
Because i do 1-4 on the all 4 side, the model doesn't look like the 6th step.
6-8 steps are strange for me

In step 5 you have to sink the triangle inside the model. It's easiest to do that if you pull the two points at the bottom apart a bit and push the triangle inside, then flatten the model along the already existing creases (some of them change between valley and mountain).
If you have done the steps 1-5 on all 4 sides you should have exactly the same as in step 6. The Steps 6 and 7 are only folding the whole model in half, distributing the flaps equally to each side.
I'm not sure about step 8 yet, I would have to fold it to see what is meant there....

I move on further with the head.
But it doesn't similar to the model in the diagramm.
Someone can make it as in the diagramm??
I happy, so I can use my copy papers...
I made yesterday a rose.
With copy paper it doesn't look so natural.
I saw a video on the metacafe.com, someone made a foil paper (or something ).
A made something like him.
A glued a thin paper to an aluminium foil.
A rose is so natural with this
If it helps, there is a picture of the finished model here : http://photos1.blogger.com/img/294/5105 ... CF0580.jpg (from http://ori-blog.blogspot.com/ )

Yes, that dragon is nice and funny and for me is not wrong way to fold it from several pieces. I like it in any way.
