Bernie Peyton

I was wondering if there are any diagrams for any of Bernie Peyton's models?

[origamimasterjared]

There are, but they're private. I believe he gives them out when he teaches his works though, like at convention classes. Also, see: http://www.eco-origami.com/bernie/Process.html

There are diagrams for his Bluebird Chick in The Paper, Issue 93, 2006. It looks similar to his owletts, but simpler.

So, just as a curiosity question... any idea which models he's actually diagrammed and taught? His models definately have a great "life" to them. I would imagine that would be difficult to duplicate, even with diagrams.

I've seen bits and pieces, posts, photos, videos, etc. that at least imply diagrams for Bernie's Bluebird Chick, Salmon, Kangaroo Rat, and Shark. I'm sure there are more. The only diagrams I have are the Bluebird though.

Bernie does diagram alot of his stuff.
He has diagrammed numerous of his models, and his diagrams are possibly the best I've seen anywhere. It takes him forever to make the diagrams - they are shaded and everything.
All I can say, is be patient....

I've seen diagrams for his shark... they're incredible. You can see from the preview on his page that each drawing is impeccably drawn and shaded, and this is consistent with every diagram he releases. I was hard-pressed to find any significant imperfections (and coming from me, that's saying something!)

If you ever get a chance to study his diagrams, do it. Bernie Peyton is one of the best diagrammers out there.

I have to agree with Quentin...
We would do well to be patient.
2009 is upon us, and it will be the
year that Bernie Peyton shares his
incredible skill.
Easily, one of the most eagerly anticipated
origamists of 2009.
I can't wait...

2009 is going to be a great year for innovative origami, and not just Bernie Peyton...

It's too bad that Bernie Peyton keeps his diagram private...

Be Patient ~~ Slow work yields fine products.

I was looking through the OrigamiDatabase
http://db.origami.com/picksearch.asp?Su ... BookTitle=

And I found 3 diagrams by Bernie Peyton
Bluebird Chick in The Paper, Issue 93 (p.21), 2006 (already mentioned)
Polar Swim in the Bay Area Rapid Folders Newsletter (p.7) Winter 2008
Woman in a Burka in OUSA Convention Book 2007 (p. 197)

I don't know how to get a copy of the Paper, but you can get the OUSA Convention book from http://www.origami-usa.org/ (look under Shopping), and you can buy a copy of the BARF newsletter from Jeremy Shafer

I found out something that may be of interest on his blog.

He is talking about the OORAA convention in France "We made my kit fox, polar bear head, bear paw, bluebird chick, and pair of owlets. I also showed a video I made of one of my bear projects in Peru. I plan to include all these models and a DVD of the video in a book Nicolas Terry plans to publish of my work next year."

Wow, that is really exciting!

I just browsed his homepage and also saw the preview of his kangooroo rat (and that's how I found this post)
you can find 3 of his diagrams on the bottom of this page
