BOS convention this weekend was great! Nick Robinson has twisted my arm to write a report for the magazine, which will be ready soon. I've got a memory-card full of photos, which I'll stick on fishgoth.com in the next week. In the meantime, here are some photos of models that I designed recently, and have kept under wraps until after the convention, where they were first shown. All models are folded from a single uncut square, unless stated otherwise.
To start: Preying Mantis
Designed last year, I've found a way to thin the legs even more. Folded from a mulberry/foil composite.
I once set up an origami PLC. But the business folded.
I've posted an earlier version of this model on this forum. Inspired by Satoshi Kamiya's dragons, I felt that they lacked scales, teeth and a tongue, so I've designed a supercomplex model with all of these thrown in. Next year, I'll try for eye-lashes, too.

Another Weebl's stuff inspired model. I wrote to Jonti, creator of the badgers and Trevor, and he wrote back, saying the models were cool. Folded from three squares.

Folded from two squares, which lock together. A 'Pureland' model is folded from mountain and valley folds only - no reverse folds/sinks/crimps, etc. And no cuts or glue. This restrictive technique is sometimes a harder challenege than supercomplex origami!

Nice models! What type of paper is that?
