monthly folding challenge : JAN 2013

[juston]

The topic for this month's challenge is internet memes. Using one or more rectangular sheets of paper, create a character/s from an internet meme or the entire scene (if applicable). Feel free to add text (folded or otherwise) to your meme to make it extra memey.

If you need some inspiration check out http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/ for more memes than you ever knew existed.

Some rules:
Must be an original design, created this month.
You can use one or more rectangles of paper, no cutting.
Enter as many times as you like.
Have fun with it, it's a rule.
Yellerdude will judge the challenge.



PS: Here's a couple of memes made origami...

Not exactly origami, but you get the idea...

i've never heard or read about a meme before, so i'm quite curious what kind of contributions there'll be.

I look forward to judging the entries! I can't wait to see how creative the entries can get.

Great job to those who entered! Here are the winners.

Bronze goes to GWB origami. Nice job on the expressive color change eyes.


Silver goes to pauorigami. Also a nice use of color change for the penguin.


Gold goes to jeko. Great job on creating a 3D interpretation of the meme; it was instantly recognizable.


jeko will judge February's folding challenge and decide the topic for March.
