4.6.12 designed by Alessandro Beber | instructions|folded by

Wow a double a post–this design is from the same booklet I ordered a long time ago, would recommend.

I’ve returned from the dead yet again with another tessellation, this one of my own design. I’ve been under a lot of stress recently because of graduate school applications but I’m also in the middle of IOIO 2018 so look out for more posts!

Ryu Zin Jr. 2.1 designed by Jason Ku | OrigamiConnect|folded by

I’ve temporarily revived from the dead to fold some models. I really like how the model is semi-translucent because I used tracing paper. Also I learned this model from OrigamiConnect webinars offered by OrigamiUSA, which I highly recommend (link above).

I know it’s been a while, I’ve been working and getting ready for graduate school applications.

Square Tessellations of Dodecagons designed by Alessandro Beber | instructions|folded by

I actually bought the booklet a couple of years back and never folded anything because I didn’t think I could figure out the crease pattern, and look at me now.

Making the grid for these is really tricky because it’s a mixed square/triangle grid on a dodecagon, but the results are definitely worth it.

Songbird, KNL Dragon, Goatfish designed by Robert Lang | instructions|folded by

I had the chance to visit the OrigamiUSA library while I was in NYC and had a field day. Also being able to fold Robert Lang designs is kind of a dream come true.

I like how simple and clean this design is–you should give it a try!

Dragons, Winged Wolf, Griffin designed by John Montroll | folded by|instructions

Shame it was a cloudy day–there’s only so much I can edit in post. Either way I highly recommend this book!

My post rate has been slowing down a lot, sorry about that. There’s always so much to do unfortunately and I’ve been burning out a little from school. I’ve temporarily revived from the dead to do a commission for a friend.

Marquise designed by Ekaterina Lukasheva | instructions|folded by

It’s certainly been a while! School has been getting to me, but this new book is actually amazing. I made this as a commission for a friend.

Just Rhombii designed by Joel Cooper | instructions|folded by

Getting all the intermediate stages to lie flat was a pain, but the result is significantly cleaner.

Petals designed by Catherine O’Mary | reverse engineered|folded by

Clean and simple, just the way I like it.

Bagan designed by Ilan Garibi | reverse engineered|folded by

This one was fun since I haven’t done a square grid tessellation in a while.

I had to break out the elephant hide for these flowers.

I also wanted to try organizing my tags a bit (i.e. sorting things by type, whether or not there are instructions, grid size, etc.) but that’s also a work in progress.

Jose in zig zag designed by Robin Scholz | reverse engineered|folded by

Get ready for the photo dump cause I’m finally home for break. Some of these are folds I’ve done over the semester but never got around to posting because school is hard ;-;

Suncatcher 8 designed by Joel Cooper | reverse engineered|folded by

I really like the backlighting on this particular flagstone.

Been a while since I broke out the elephant hide.

All designed by Alessandro Beber | instructions|folded by

I know it’s been a while since my last post, but school has started up and has begun the process of killing what little time I have. This book is a really good investment though–I highly recommend it!
