Lots and lots of Origami :D


muuuuuuuuuu

Recommended Posts

I enjoy making origami in my free time, so enjoy! :D

 

 

 

Each item, unless obviously made from multiple pieces of paper, is constructed from one square with no cuts.

Stunning. They look great. I love the modular pieces with lots of intricate parts. I've made some smaller origami spheres, but none that large and involved. Well done. You have incredible patience =D>

 

Thanks! The largest one I have made is the red,black,silver/white one, with 360 pieces. It took over 20 hours to make. :D

 

The next thing I want to make is a torus which will have somewhere around 500 pieces, I believe. Should be fun :D

 

Nice and colourful I'd say. good intricate patterns (?).

 

The pattern on the ones with 3 colors is actually what gives me the most trouble. I would like for each vertex to have exactly one of each of the 3 color pieces there, but for the larger balls it has seemed impossible to do. :cry:

 

For the yellow blue and white one at the bottom (The one with the much larger picture) I found a diagram on the web that I used to accomplish that, but it was really difficult to follow.

^ that kinna looks like the incomplete rose although different :?

 

 

 

im not bad at origami, i can make a couple things like the crane, box, sphere type thing, frog, turtle, ghost, and a flower, but i never figured out how to do the rose, if you know how would you mind explaining it :pray:

Great origami, it all looks very carefully folded. But it's a little too primitive and repetitive, for my tastes. I find origami a lot more interesting when it attempts to replicate life (objects, animals, etc).

 

 

 

I recently bought a small pack of origami paper that I'm thinking of using on a lazy day. :D

I've never thought about that as a Rose. In the book, it is titled "Flasher" because you can "open" and "close" it quickly. The above picture is it open, here is it closed.

I can't stand making animals or things like that, making geometric forms like what I have here interests me a lot more.

 

 

 

How strong is the first one or is it really fragile?

 

The first one and all of the other ones made with similar pieces are actually surprisingly strong. Not sure how to best describe it, but I can throw them around, drop them on the floor. I think I dropped one about 15 feet onto a hard floor, and some of the pieces came apart, but the whole thing definitely did not explode.

Those are awesome! I would love to be as good as that!

My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.

Woah, those look really complicated.

 

 

 

How long do they take you? And are they hard to create?

 

It really depends on the size of the object. The single piece objects take about an hour max, whereas the red black and silver/white 360 piece spherical object took at least 20 hours. They aren't really hard to create, I just have a lot of difficulty trying to get it so that each of the 3 colors I use have exactly one piece at each vertex. It's a lot harder than it seems to do that >.>
