I may as well start with one of my favourites...

Lang's treefrog (from Origami Design Secrets) folded from 35cm foil-washi (from origami-shop.com)

Lang's Bull Moose (from Origami Design Secrets)

(The camera on my phone is a bit rubbish)

I folded this from a 60cm sheet of origami-shop's "Tissue-foil" (which isn't really tissue-foil) with the brown side out and the "shiny" side (which you can see at the front of the legs where I got a bit of paper-creep) on the inside.

Not bad for four hours folding.

Your folds are very good!

Thank you! The frog is my 4th or 5th attempt at that model, and the first with high-quality paper rather than cheap kami.

Here's my fold of the Hercules Beetle from Lang's Insects II. I love this deluxe-washi, it's like folding chocolate!

Again, apologies for the dodgy photos. I should ask my wife to photograph my models, she's a much better photographer than me.

Incredible! I have to fold this model soon

Thank you for your kind words.

Another: Coelophysis from Works of Satoshi Kamiya folded from 24cm kami:

That must have taken a long time!

Do you mean Coelophysis? It took about an hour and a half, I think.

OrigamiGeek · Post by **OrigamiGeek** » May 14th, 2012, 5:30 pm

yes sorry I couldn't find the name any where when I psted that but I see it now

Amazing!

I was finally able to make this model a few weeks ago. Took me twice the time haha. Nice fold!

O you might want to turn the flash off on your camera. don't know if your using your mobilephone to take pictures, but turning it off, and taking the picture in daylight works better... or at least it did for me.

Yes I think you're right, thanks. All photos here have been taken with my phone; the tree-frog and the Coelophysis were taken without flash and I think they look much better.

Cerberus, folded from 35cm tant, designed by John Montroll

I think I could do some more shaping on this if I wet the paper. I ripped another sheet of the tant I bought trying to fold something else so I've been experimenting and it seems like tant will be very good for wet-folding and/or wet finishing.

Again, a dodgy photo on my phone, sorry!

Robert J Lang's "Orchid Blossom" from Design Secrets:

Dry-folded from 35cm tant, and then wet-shaped. I think next time I fold this one I'll do proper wet-folding.
