A while ago I was just doodling on some paper while watching a boring movie with a friend. And a jellyfish with four tentacles came out. I don't know how I made it though.
I did manage to doodle one of those. At first I thought it was an original idea, but there are other people that have come to the same idea. The one that looks the best is to use a double-blintzed frog base, kite fold all the points going down, sink and flatten out the main point, and then just curve the edges of the disc and reverse fold the legs with lots of odd angles.
The first created model I came up with was a canard wing paper airplane, but I don't think that paper airplanes count. Actually, the first thing I created was a Volkswagon Bug, only because I had never seen any cars out there. I can't remember how to do it now, but from what I remember, it would have been something reasonably simple to diagram.
