Who can make some of these?

I've folded most of these, the ones with diagrams, and learned the dragonfly in person. Most of them are Robert Lang, Hojyo Takashi, and Satoshi Kamiya designs pulled from their websites. I've folded some from CPs, but I'd rather fold the diagram to get the author's finished model interpretation.

I even made a comment on that video, about which one are diagrammed:

Those aren't things that I've folded, thats what is in the video that you can find diagrams/CPs somewhere

Cupcake i was talking about Joe The White. He said he made most of those.

I'm not a very "good" CP folder. I can usually get the base well enough, but the finished product isn't too great. The techniques used in the CP are often my reason for folding them. I did suprise Robert Lang once though I think, with the dragonfly verileg. I'm not very skilled mathematically, but I've been told I have a keen eye. I messed up early on with the folding for landmarks, but folded the base from the supplied CP for the second part of the class the next day.

Oh, and to add to Cupcake's list; Lang's Cicada can also be found in OUSA Convention Annual 2004, and Hojyo's Icarus and Violinist were diagramed in seperate membership specials of JOAS.

Joe the white im a begginer at cp's and i dont get how you get bases. Can you help me with them?

Cupcake · Post by **Cupcake** » June 16th, 2007, 10:38 pm

Try searching "CP" or "Crease Pattern" on this forum

i already did and read all that...it wasnt really any help

I'm not a very good teacher either. I can at least let you know what I go by. I used Ben Ball's site originally, and then Wolf's, both can be found in the CP FAQ here: viewtopic.php?t=2131 . Origami Design Secrets helped me alot as well, learning the molecules and their uses, comparing models with design techniques to their crease patterns. A helpful hint is to fold strict box pleating models outside-in, and in radial bases that are box pleated or pleat-sunk, find the underlying "base" or main structural folds, and collapse the others around it, then proceed with the pleat sinks (much like if it were a diagram). Experience in folding all kinds of models (as well as unfolding them to see the CP) helps alot.

Many models today are a mix of techniques put together in a certain way, like some of Jason Ku's models where they can more easily be seen. Take his Balrog for example, it incorporates techniques of Kamiya's ancient Dragon (most of the body) and Angel (the wings) into its design. Being able to spot techniques like that can help identify what part of the paper becomes that part of the finished model. Fingers are usually the most recognizable.

Knowing the designer's style is important too. Robert Lang is rather straight forward in his designs while Hideo Komatsu is mischevious (though artful) in his flap placements. Kamiya can be both, but also fluently meshes techniques together, so they can be a tad tricky to collapse right.

Don't want to start a new topic, so I post this here.
Another cool origami video. Titled "Papiroflexia"

From video info:

Papiroflexia (Spanish for "Origami") is the animated tale of Fred, a skillful paper folder who could shape the world with his hands.
