Review of the paper used: 

This is my second fold of the model. I decided to use slightly thicker paper for the 24 modules, and thinner paper for the 8 hinges. The first time I folded it I have to admit I though "Never again!", because while assembling the model, a bit here or there kept falling apart. But then again, it unnerves me if something doesn't quite work. So after a couple of hours break I cut some more paper and gave it another try. My second fold is much more stable than the first one, so using thicker paper did help. And I think I was a bit more patient the second time round.

Pegasus (Satoshi Kamiya): Folded from Tracing Paper

Designer: 
Kamiya, Satoshi
Folder:

I had a look at Satoshi Kamiya's book today, and found a half-finished pegasus in it. When I started folding the model, I think I wanted to check what it's like to fold with tracing paper. It seems to be well suited for origami in that it takes creases very well, and doesn't rip easily. Just don't try to wet-fold with it.

Paper: tracing paper, unknown size (~27.5cm)
Model size: height 5cm, length 10cm, wingspan 10cm
Completed: 20 October 2008
