Of interest to Walden

Man, that’s awesome!!

Yeah, what Blackhawk said!

Thanks for the link. I just copied and posted it to the Origami list.

Awesome indeed! :astonished:

My gosh! And I thought those modular swans were a pain to make. That dragon had to be a pain.

Holy moley. That’s beautiful. I would never have thought it might be done.

Hopefully Walden, his artistic bent piqued, will find out how that thing was made. Enquiring minds want to know.

It was made by Joseph Wu, who lives in Canada, and is generally quite content to keep his folding methods to himself. He’s the guy responsible for quite a bit of the origami used in advertising, such as the Burger King ad where the wrapper is folded into various things.

Anyway… here’s how it’s done… or at least a version of it…

Generally it works better to right click and download PDF files, rather than open them in the web browser.

If anyone’s interested, here’s another model sometimes seen at conventions, and the instructions for folding it.
