Jonnycakes -

After you put the Hex-Guide together (for Halloween , you might consider sending a copy to Robert Lang and asking him about suggestions for improvement... and a few places to get it published.

In addition to the Conference proceedings or Origami Magazines, there may be a Journal of "Origami Mathematics" to publish in.

[Please try to come up with a few other models as examples, and reasons why Hex-pleating works better for those models...]

Excellent insight !

Wow, I guess a guide to this would be pretty popular. I didn't think about getting it published, but I have a sneaking suspicion that Lang will want to write about it...

Just wondering, Jonnycakes... Did you ever get back to that Violinist CP that you made (It's on page 1 of this topic)? If you did, I would be interested to know how it turned out, because I actually folded the CP. Now I have an unfinished base, waiting to be shaped. I'll post a picture of it, once I get my digital camera back from my dad.

I kinda abandoned it-I think I tried too hard on the CP. The grid seems too small to work with. I just wanted to try it because I liked the dress. The shaping should be straight-forward-you need to sink the fingers to make them thinner and shape the violin/bow.

Nice design Johnnycakes- If you changed up the tail it would look like an awesome Archaeopteryx.

Thanks, and that is a good idea-maybe I will try it out sometime.
