Satoshi Kamiya - Ryu Zin (CP)

[orion119net]

first time I've ever been rickroll'd on an origami forum...



Anyway, I finished my Ryu Zin, gave it away, folded another one with dorsal spines, but shaped it weird, so I can't get a good photo of it. So now I'm almost done collapsing yet another one using bigger, thinner paper(instead of some kraft), so hopefully I'll be able to get a good photo of this one.

In case anyone's wondering, dorsal spikes on 2.1 is really easy. For the bottom half I shifted everything up one unit to give a little more space for them. The dragon is a little shorter and the overlapping scale section is bigger, but it's not really an issue and it looks a whole lot nicer than having a nasty spine of paper.

hi where can i buy big paper

[cody_baker]

what kind of paper is best used to fold the ryujin? I tried craft paper, it worked, but i don't like the color...

[orion119net]

well I don't know if you'd have access to it, but I found out that exam table paper(from a doctors office) works pretty good. It's pretty thin, strong and white. Also, it has good edges so you can get a good square from it.

Hello guys i am preparing myself mentally for the huge task of mainly precreasing ryu jin 3.5 and i always draw the cp of a design before attempting it that is why i need to be sure there aren't any mistakes. could you look at the cp and point them out
thank you in advance

Mmm. Seems that the ryuzin fever is over.

Good luck.

ok... i need lots of help xD

well im testing folding different parts of ryuzin 3.5, and i tried the head. well this is what i can come up with from the CP, and i have flaps all over the place. Can somebody maybe point out which flaps are which (tongue, lower jaw, other details) and i seem to be missing where the teeth come from and eyes and such. im having lots of trouble with this, any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

edit: (new pictures) after a little help, i sorted out a few flaps, any other help is still welcome =]

Well there are no instructions for this model, only a crease pattern. You will need a square of at least 1mx1m but recommended is 2mx2m (the size the designer used)

I was thinking about folding this model, however Im stuck at the basics and cant figure out a good paper to use or what size the paper should be.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

even those of you who have just folded the head, thats just amazing!
something that probably could never do

[BrooksHalten]

Even though I have satoshi's new book with the cp, I have no idea where anyone could get a paper that is 1mx1m in size. Do I have to glue multiple sheets together, or is there somewhere to get a single, good quality, sheet?

[artur biernacki]

I used to folding of Ryu zin 3,5 wrapping paper. This paper is very strong and good to shape.
