Nice work! I like the color change on the Jack-o-lantern, and the hercules beetle is great, too! I may have to give it a go one of these days...

[Swapnil Das]

Thanks a lot! Well, I have no choice. These are what they sell in the stationery.

[Mir Numaan]

why don't you glue kite paper to foil? the paper is awesome and strong

[Swapnil Das]

I was thinking about it... then I ran out of foil.

[Mir Numaan]

is this kite paper in background?

[Swapnil Das]

Yeah! How'd you know?

[Benlewisorigami]

It's kinda obvious by the folds in it XD

[Mir Numaan]

LOL!! Ben,

[Benlewisorigami]

well it's obvious because Tissue is usually used as gift wrap. And since the sheets come in huge sizes, they are machine-folded into way smaller sheet sizes. So when you un-fold the sheet, you get those folds, and Voila, it's easily figured out that it's tissue paper (kite paper in your country..?)
