A spider

[T]

Hi I have to make a spider for a friend and I was just wondreing if anyone has a reccomendation for which one to fold. Ive got quite a few books and it would be useful to have some suggestions!

Thanks

Spider by Mark Leonard is very nice and easy.

I have folded it several times. Check pictures no 9 and 10 in gallery at my site

I like "viuda negra" by Manuel Sirgo. the spider on the picture is a modified version of the original. it somehow looks better to me that way
if I remember right, the diagrams are at Terry's page.

I really enjoyed folding Max Hulme's spider, I believe diagrams are in a recent BOS magazine.

yes I was planning to do Manuel sirgo's. I must look at Marc's.

Chris, could you tell me if the modification is diagrammed somewhere , or is it your own?

Thanks very much

the folding process is the same, just the shaping is different.

here's Sirgo's Version:

I tried folding it from a piece of 15x15 kami once, but failed miserably. I couldn't shape it at all, and it was just a black ball with some straight sticks. I really need to start making my own tissue foil so I can shape my models a bit after folding.

hi!

i'm trying to finish that mark leonard's spider model, but i'm totally stuck in step 19.

would you be so kind of giving me some hints so that i can end it up?

thx
