Eagle (Nguyen Hung Cuong)

Paper: 48cm square of double tissue, glued together with MC
Finished model: wingspan 22cm, body length 12.5cm

I recently made double tissue for the first time, and this is the first model I folded from that paper. Rudolf (http://www.faltkunst.de) had also challenged me: who would fold this eagle first? One week later, and I'm done. Rudolf, what's your status on the eagle?

It's my first fold of the eagle, and it's not as tidy as I'd like, but I'm happy that I managed to complete it.

Cardinal

Can you please make a video on how to fold the origami cardinal(level 4) by Roman Diaz? My vacations are going on and I would really like to fold it before my vacations end in June after which I would probably have no time to fold anymore. Thanks!!

problem with wingtips

Look very nice this eagle. I'm trying to fold it myself, but i'm having a little trouble with the diagrams 154, 155 trough 158. I don't really understand which way to fold this part.

Can you help me out on this (close-up pictures perhaps)

many thanks in advance!

Mirko

Have you,

Hi Sara,
I was just wondering if you have folded the Roc by Roman Diaz.
If so, will you put up a picture of it?
Thanks, Joe :)

Haven't folded the roc

No, I haven't folded the roc, and to be honest with you not sure I will. I haven't been shy to say that Origami Essence is my favorite origami book thus far, but I do have to admit that the roc is the one model that didn't pick my interest that much.

Just wondering

Can you seriously fold a model by looking at the crease pattern? e.g the pheonix by Satoshi Kamiya

Not me, but others

Some people can, but I'm not amongst them. :)

-- Sara

I'm with you

I can't understand how people fold from a cp but tadashimori has a tutorial for it

got better

now i can fold from cp

Ooh Alright

It's just I can't understand how some people do it based on the cp. I think it's quite incredible:)

Satoshi Kamiya phoenix

Do u know which book or where i can buy instructions for satoshi kamiyas phoenix? its my favourite model & i really want to try & fold it.

Phoenix 3.0 diagrams

[removed by Sara]

Good luck with this, because I can't follow them, and I still haven't bothered to solve the CP.
By the way, I hope to God this is legal!
Phoenix 3.5 diagrams also exist, but 1) I can't remember where, and 2) I don't need them because I solved the CP for that one anyway.

When in doubt...

Sorry, I fear all diagrams you'll find for this online are illegal. :(

-- Sara

No diagrams, but at least CPs

As far as I know no diagrams exist for the phoenix. If you're fine with folding from CP, Satoshi Kamiya posted some for version 3.0 and 3.5 here:

http://folders.jp/g/2002/0231.html (Phoenix 3.5)

Sorry, I do not send out diagrams. If you would like them, you can buy a book that includes them at origami-shop.com

-- Sara

OK

ok thanks it's not important good by see you !!

video

please i'm french but i understand english and can you make a tutorial for this origami ?? and can you make a tutorial for the phenix 3.5 by satoshi kamiya please it's beautiful !!! amazing

Sorry, no

I fear these models are too complex to be demonstrated in a video. Or, at least, I don't plan to make an instructional video on them. They take hours to fold, and explaining takes many times more than that.

-- Sara

Sara which one do you think

Sara which one do you think it's the most complex? The eagle or the ancient dragon ?Both of them look super complex

Ancient Dragon vs Eagle: Complexity

Hm, I think the Ancient Dragon took me longer to complete. At this level of complexity I'd say time needed is the final, deciding factor. However, I like the eagle much better. :) I guess I'm not the dragon type... While I'm a bit reluctant to fold the ancient dragon a second time, I really want to fold the eagle again - not sure when I'll find the time, though.
