Men thanks a lot for the video tutorial.







I use the tail of your first Wyvern, and I lift up one more horn, I love your designs men, and It would be awesome if you teach one of your dragons.

Take care, awesome job, with the videos.

I'm glad you could fold it Tomás! The Squid diagrams are all done if you want to try them out. Shoot me an email. I just ask that nobody redistribute them as they aren't fully tested yet and I want to make sure the symbols are understandable as well as to keep some control over them before everyone can see them. I'd like to compile a book of some sort with this stuff in a year or two.

Here's a modular I created several years ago in middle school. It was my experiment to prove that copy paper can hold up a bowling ball:

Note the photos are old so I wasn't really thinking of background then hehe.

That's pretty impressive with the bowling ball!
How many modules did it take to make that cube?

[Bass]

At that stage I think the cube pack is at about 196 units, each of varying size. The cubes are made of larger squares whereas the matrix that bonds them together consists of smaller squares.

I've managed to design a serpent:

I'll be revisiting this guy for the next few days and see if I can't get some more details in there with a cleaner neck. Hopefully it'll turn out like along the lines of the Classic Dragon since I'm quite happy with its v1.2.

Updated Serpent:

The head is extremely customizable now, and I think everyone's result should be different hopefully. The inner structure as well is a lot more locked in, resulting in a much longer and curvier tail. I'll be wet-folding this next for a final draft and I think it's on to the next design!

I liked the look of the head in the first version better, but if it's extremely customizable then that's cool. I can shape it however I want. The tail definitely looks better in this new version.
Is there a crease pattern or diagrams? I'd like to have a go of folding one myself.

Designed a baby dragon: Introducing the Drake!

Made a smaller yet more detailed version so the camera can do it some justice, sorry for the first round of pictures, I'm used to designing from 4" squares, not the 8.5" the post above is folded from:

Revisited my Squid for a cleaner look and a better background:

Will be revising this design this week to see what else can happen. I'm pretty happy with the result though for a first draft.

Alien (final) by Bassjason1, on Flickr

The legs are now fully developed and the arms I've left fully customizable. Diagrams are halfway complete, but as with most of my models, a considerable portion of the folding cannot be done lain flat, so these are taking a while to think about. I may release a video for it if there's some interest.
