Hi, here come the creasepattern for my little Rosebud:

That is beautiful-impressive use of curved creases! The form looks very natural. It reminds me a little bit of an artichoke-I suppose it has the same kind of feel to it as a rosebud. Great design-it is refreshing to see a rose that is not based of of Kawasaki's.

? But it is based on Kawasaki's....

Yes, this Rose is a "Kawasaki Style" Rose.

Why is it a problem? It can decrease quality of the model and personal contribution to the model - no. It is of course based on the Kawasaki's work, because it is the best.

My bad. I just looked at the picture and the CP, since I can't read German (that is German, right?). From the CP, I don't see a twist fold. The main structural folds are curved crimps than emanate from the center of the paper. I take 'Kawasaki-style' to mean based around a twist fold.

Granted the outside petal structure is like Kawasaki's original rose-I didn't see that before. But there is no twist fold, and that is the main thing, I think.

It is German.
The first thing I saw was a CP that looked nearly exactly like the "old" Kawasaki rose with the only difference that there is no twist fold, afterwards I read the text. I'm unsure how to fold it though, it has to be hard to make the rounded creases instead of the twist fold. Maybe I'll try sometime...
