Joel Cooper Mask

Done.


Joel Coopers design.

That's good! Could you do one as a computorised image so that it is a bit more clear? You missed the top off a bit. sorry!

[redheadorigami]

Ill see what I can do.

[Harpseal]

Thanks, the finished model looks awesome!

[redheadorigami]

Boom. This wouldve been done alot faster if it hadnt been for the flat foldability problem with Oripa. The Incomplete 'non - working' CP wouldve have been good, but I wanted it to be perfect for some reason.

[Harpseal]

wow.

[jacoboqc]

It will be great if you could upload the orginal Oripa file, please?

[redheadorigami]

Already done:

Is it just me or is readheadorigami the most efficient person in the world. You'll be publishing 30 pages of diagrams in a hard back book done by hand and on 300 different programs, with a 30 foot evaluation on each of them next!


(Your next post will be: "done. That was done before I did the CP." !!!)

I wish!
DIagramming with Inkscape and photos is much harder than using a simple tool like oripa, and I procrastinate alot. The only other problem Im having is not having a hexagonal grid to work with on oripa, so thats 1/10th of Joels models out the door of being "easy".

I've been meaning to try this one, but haven't got around to it yet... The grid is pretty small, it looks doable.

Or you could go for Brutus, which has some in-process shots including a very informative view of the back.

You pick one, I'll do the other. I need a reverse-engineering challenge.

Protip: Inkscape options allow you to snap to a hex grid without having to draw it yourself. Or a square grid for that matter. It makes these things much easier... Look in the Document Properties dialog.

Thanks Andrew!
Ill check it out...
EDIT: Ill choose the first one!

[Harpseal]

I'll do both if I can get hold of diagrams or cps!

[ahudson]

Harpseal, don't get too excited... last time I did one of these it took 8 or 9 hours to reverse-engineer, and 3 or 4 hours to draw a CP. This mask is weirder so I don't expect to be done for awhile yet; I don't have much time for origami and most of it is taken up by diagramming and writing.

Nonetheless I am working on it slowly. Today I sat down and figured out the background pattern, which tells me how dense the rest of the mask will be:

I know what you mean about reverse engineering! It took me an hour to reverse engineer a wishing star! (I was a beginner and i didn't know how to make one so i practised reverse engineering and i got tomake the star at the same time)
