Now then Origami folk, I'm a long-time lurker, 1st time poster. I'm a lifelong Origami enthusiast, and (with countless help from the web) I've begun designing my own models, and I'd like to share what I've come up with so far:: (images are linked, as they are pretty big)

Folded from a warped frog base, with some extra layers for the horns.
Yellow Bird

this looks depressingly similar to the Chocobo on Kamiya's website. I discovered this shortly after finishing the "design".
Cat with Wings

This was sort of designed by accident after days of doodling with paper at work. Its folded a weird blintz frog base, with two of the blintz-ed corners being used to form the wings.

Six piece oriental dragon, complete with clawed feet, whiskers, & horns.

CP's (an hopefully some diagrams) to follow!

Some models I folded, not designed by me:

This is a great forum, and has proved a valuable infomation source for me when folding my own models, hopefully I can now give something back!

Cheers,

You know, the three headed dragon picture is really black.

Great models, otherwise.

BTW, what do you mean by "warped frog base"?

bravo xenix!

i like you winged cat most.
even if it reminds me more of a dog ahah.

keep it up!
and: lovely meta-signature

Nice designs! Although I too think the flying cat looks more like a dog

BTW, what do you mean by "warped frog base"?

Could it be something like the example given in ODS? Same basic structure of flaps as a frog base, but with altered lengths.

Thanks for the replies

BTW, what do you mean by "warped frog base"?

The paper has some folds in one corner, and a diagonal pleat before the frog base is folded to allow the horns, lower jaw, and tail to be formed.

The flying dog/cat thing is folded from a stretched, blintz frog base, with two corners forming the wings, and the other two folded in the opposite direction to make the head and tail. Ill post the CPs asap!
