Large Origami

Post by paperlion »

I'm looking for origami models that can easily be folded out of large paper, ending up roughly 6 to 8 inches tall. No real specific guidelines here, they just have to be easily recognizable, and fairly large. Also, they should be easily recognizable. Thanks in advance.

probably. Any other recommendations? I'm thinking about Kawahata's Pegasus, and Komatsu's horse.

How about Patricia Crawford's Full Masted Ship, and Baby Grand Piano ?

Or Neal Elias's The Last Waltz, or some Fuse Boxes...

Or Jorge E Jaramillo's terrific Knob Box:

Maybe Anibal Voyer's Pegasus, its easier than kamiya's also gives a bigger result, it's wings are a bit small but it's easy to recognise
