My site

Post by Joe the white »

My website has a few diagrams.My creations and some by Travis Hicks.Let me know if you fold them.So far everyone says the balrog is the hardest to follow.New ones should be on the way.

Edit:

My old website is no longer available, I now submit most of my work to DeviantArt. Feel free to comment.

Hey, are you also from the O-List? I must admit you are quite a talented folder (esp after folding the Bahamut).

Yeah even I would be embarrased if my teacher announced to the entire school that I was the best Origamist. Thing is many people think it's sad (in schools anyways) that people do Origami. I used to be teased actually.

I found that when there is a small group of people (non folders themselves) they seem to be fascinated by origami. However the larger the groups gets, the more they want to tease you. This is maybe because Origami isn't macho compared to other arts and the bullies think that they'll be called sad if they're associated with Origami...

Having said that I have made friends with previous bullies by folding them paper planes that flew very well. They were most impressed by my spiders though.

The other thing I've noticed is that if you are in a area with no folders (ie typically a school, work place) you automatically get called the Origami master ....

Just my 2 cents

Thanks, Yes I am Joseph White(commonly mistaken for Joseph Wu and some times Joseph Wong) :) I have had all the mentioned experiences as you :shock: .Oddly, around other folders I am called the origami master or grand master and swarmed around to teach some random model(this is a small town in a lowly populated state) :?
At the school we have about 3 or so folders of an above average nature which I know of.I'm sure you've also been swamped by large groups wanting you to make them things.(about every teacher has asked me for something on more than one occasion and usually I get about an average of 5 requests a day from students :shock: )Then there is a group that challenges me from time to time with a strange request(I wrote about this on the O-List once)
Recently I had a bit of bad luck with my last library display,I removed them from their case and set them on the librarians desk,the next day all of them were gone!Many of them were prototypes or one-and-onlys(including the centaur,balrog,and other 14 day experiments) :cry: Oh well back to the diagramming board.

Thanks for the photo diagrams of the beetle ring - they're great! I'll have to print them off and fold them, thanks for sharing!

Man, no one has posted in this thread for over three years. His website probably grew old and died.

I tried to look for the site and this is what I got. http://www.geocities.com/joechar2004/diagrams.html Apparently it IS dead Image I would really like to see what your Balrog looks like, Joe!

Hi angrydemon,

I got this through the internet wayback machine:

Most of the diagrams are intact and now you can fold your Balrog too :lol:

Oh yes! I totally forgot about Web Archive. Thanks for your help. I don't understand the diagrams though. They're um...I'm sorry, I don't know how to describe them. One of a kind?

Now you see why it is not there =p. You can change alot in 5 years... I'm still not very good at computer diagramming though (or diagramming in general), but I hand draw them now and use a scanner with my new system. No more Win 98 for me. My photography hasn't improved much since then either, but I have a deviantart of my miscellaneous works, http://mistro.deviantart.com . Maybe I'll re-diagram and photograph the Balrog, its been so long since I've folded it, I don't think I even have a copy. Its not quite as intricate as Jason Ku's and comes from Montroll's Chimera/3 headed dragon base.

I didn't know you had a Deviantart gallery! You should put it in your profile or your signature. You should upload some of your photos onto your Flickr gallery. It's totally empty!
