The Origami Forum

I orderd The works of Satoshi Kamiya last week and to pass the time until it comes I've been making lots of origami models, but I've recently found that every model I come across I have all ready folded.
Can anyone tell me a diagram which takes a long time to fold?
thanks

Try tessellations: http://www.origamitessellations.com

Thanks, the Tessellations are great.
Your AdamSara on youtube, Ive watched all your videos there really good especially the tessellations that you show how to make they are really cool and the origami conventions that you videoed are cool too.
when are you thinking of making a new video?
P.S. can you tell me when the origami conventions are held and where you have to go.
You showed the works of Satoshi Kamiya on one of your videos (I spellt this rong didn't I) your choboku Is awsome

fold one of Isseis skeletons... that should keep you busy
I folded the t-rex some years ago and it really took a long time

My next videos are long overdue, but I've been slightly busy. Interviewing for a job, having lots of people visit, trying to finish my PhD sooner than I'd planned. Next weekend I've got visitors again, so probably I'll do my next videos at the end of August.

The British Origami Society has a list of upcoming events: http://www.britishorigami.info/practical/events.php
Other origami societies usually also have lists of events. Not all conventions are included in all lists, so checking several may be a good idea. Or - if you only want to go to a convention in your country - check the website of the origami society of that country. They *should* announce conventions there.

Thanks everyone you have been very helpful.
Good luck in the interviews Sara I'm sure that they will go well
And the real criss that Trex skeleton looks very difficult, I'm certain I couldn't fold it if I could that would be surprising.

Instead of tesselations you should take a RyuZin CP ;DD that would keep you busy

I'm not even good at easy crease patterns.
I think that one would be a bit hard for me

There are some diagrams for one of my favourite diagrammed dragons, other than Bahamut and Ancient Dragon of course, at http://fierydragon.notlong.com. This dragon is very versatile, and you can easily modify it to have toes via a strip graft. Have a go!

this diagram is free available from the chinese origami society

so there's no need to upload it somewhere else

I didn't upload it there. It was linked to from Kade Chan's flickr.
