now m gonna fold the divine dragon!

Trouble · Post by **Trouble** » August 14th, 2010, 2:43 pm

for the divine dragon double tissue is a good choice and also the divine dragon is eisier than the ancient dragon so you shouldent have much difficulty exept for the head you will need some larger paper than you used for your ancient dragon

im folding step 202 right now.
once again im using 27cm tissue foil - its turning out ok so far...

all i can say is i hope you dont get to confused with the wings they are hard ive folded at least 6 of these and i only got good wings on 1 of them

ive completed it!
the head was the only un-satisfactory part of my fold. ill post pictures later today or tomorrow.

unfortunatly the paper was too small for the head, as you stated but 27cm was all i had.

Lion by Satoshi Kamiya

Bahumut by Satoshi Kamiya

Harris Hawk designed by me - A very rough scetch.

Eight Legged Long Horned Beetle designed by me.

And this is a quick design scetch for a Praying Mantis.
Of course i will fold it when i get some time.

you folded the lion niceley and the dragon okay but your beatle is kinda awkward looking with 10 legs.

Thanks

The beetle has 8 legs and 2 huge horns.
for some reason, whenever i try to design a beetle or insect, i get too many flaps. right now im folding Manuel Sirgo's mantis from licence to fold and then ill fold myne.

Beetles DON'T have 4 pairs of legs...
Advice: start designing using certain techniques, not folding accidentially..

p.s. the cp of mantis looks inefficient.. you could have dome more than just adding grafts in the middle. A pair or legs will get thick

the betle was just for fun

ive made a new cp for the mantis and it works perfectly!

Paulius - This is the new CP i used. Of course it is just a rough one, but a cleaner computer drawn CP will follow.

This is the completed model when collapsed. I still need to improve some of the proportions (Neck, head etc.) but for now i am satisfied with it.

BluePaper · Post by **BluePaper** » August 18th, 2010, 4:05 pm

I have to agree with Paulius. You need to start designing with the intention of making a model, not just leaving it up to chance.

Now, I can see that's something you seemed to try doing with your praying mantis, and even though you claim it works 'perfectly,' the finished result is far from perfect and, as you said, the proportions will need to be improved.

i actually meant that the cp collapses perfectly.

cp of my praying mantis.
Jared kindly re-drew the cp, as mine was quite messy.
