Hi by all.
What optimum size of a triangle is interesting to me is necessary for manufacturing this model?
Using a standard sheet А4 the model is received too small: (

In Brilliant Origami, Dave recommends using an A2 sheet of thickish paper for the Lioness. I believe he uses the same size for the horse as well.
I can't really make any recommendations from personal experience - the horse is one of those models that I've never been able to fold satisfactorily myself.

I think, the biggest problem with David Brill's models is, that he is somehow modelizing, and not that much folding. so if you don't have a hidden sculpturer inside of you, than you may never get a satisfying result :/
I was never very good with shaping a model, so I never got good results with David Brill's models. hmm... maybe I'm only supercritical with myself?

Ah yes I remember this one, it was the first model I ever wet folded,
I used a peice of paper about a2 cut into a triangle it was very thick. The wet folding made it easier to sculpt and provided a relatively satisfying result but it is one of those models that takes a lot of practice to get a good result.
