After folding EZ's awesome star tessellation, I got to thinking that maybe I should try hex-pleating for some animal or person.

Beautiful - the detail is amazing and the chances of me folding from CP is zero.

I made diagrams for my simple dragon http://www.mediafire.com/?i7aotitjs6kb8qb



I designed the figure back in 2007 as a model that only takes about an hour to fold and that still looks rather appealing to the eye. I've sold a few at arts and craft shows; the big foil one for $15 and some 6" ones for $7.

That is an awesome design! Thanks for sharing the diagrams!

i quite like the third version, shuki. it has your stamp on it--v2 looked too much like kamiya's ancient dragon with a different body grafted on.

I agree completely.

I designed a pattern for a new Atlas Beetle shortly after folding the final version of my Kabutomushi. So, now to fold it!
