I found an Origami book called Imaginando en papel and thought the models in it looked quite good. Has anyone folded from this book before? What did you think of the models? Is it possible to buy the book in English?
Thanks,
Jerry

It depends on whether you like Manuel Sirgo's stuff really. I'm not a fan of his style, personally, so I wouldn't buy it.
If you haven't already, check out this page about the book: http://design.origami.free.fr/boutique/ ... inando.htm so you can see what the pieces look like folded by Sirgo, who is a phenomenal folder, from his special paper. (In other words, this is about as good as they will ever look) Also, you can see the crease patterns.
His diagrams are typically very good (from what I've seen in the Tanteidan Books), and often many steps long (170-something for his flying Hercules beetle).
