All models folded by Joshua Carter, aged 12 - I wish I had started this young!
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
Paper: Some foil wrapping paper I found round Christmas 2006
Initial paper size: 34.8cm x 34.8cm
Model size: height 6cm, length 14cm, wingspan 14cm
Today someone asked me whether I could help him with a couple of steps for this model. I hadn't folded it before, but spontaneously decided to try it out. This is the result of my second attempt. You don't want to see the first one - I'd used a 26cm square of thick paper, and thick just doesn't work for this model.
