TREE FROG
Designed - 22nd October 2018
I started work on a tree frog design in 2013 - https://www.flickr.com/photos/dangermax/9556107937 - but I did not finish it. 5 years later I revisited the design and managed to turn it into a proper model with a colour change belly. The central structure (where the eyes come from) is unchanged but the rest is completely different.
SKULL
Designed - 30th July 2018
Based on a 64x64 grid. With this model I wanted to create a 3D skull with individual teeth included in the design which led to a rather complex cp. There are 24 individual teeth in total (less than the normal 32) but I am still very happy with the result.
BUTTERFLY 3.0
Designed - 28th March 2018
I really like the colour change in this model when viewed from above and it has a simple and fun folding sequence and only takes around 45 minutes to fold (excluding shaping with mc)Â
Folded from a 30x30cm square of double tissue paper treated with mc.
DRAGON 2.0
Designed - 2nd February 2018
This model uses the same head structure as my other dragons but this time I decided against another centre horn opting for a tongue instead. The legs get quite thick and the wings are a little hard to shape but on the whole I am very pleased with the result.
TURTLE 2.0
Designed 25th December 2017
This is my second attemt at a turtle design. This time I started by coming up with a shell pattern tesselation. I tried different shapes - long, thin, wide etc and settled on the current design.
PEACOCK 2.0
Designed - 12th November 2017
My previous ​attempt at a peacock design was based on diagonal symmetry and used many angle bisectors to produce the tail. For this version I used vertical symmetry so that I could box pleat the tail and create an equal tail spread.
MEGALOSAURUS
Designed - 9th July 2017
I love origami models with teeth - Shuki Kato's Giganotosaurus and Nguyen Hung Cuong's Shark are two of my favourite models. With this design I started with the jaw to make sure it had teeth, then I worked backwards to create the rest of the model.
BUZZARD
Designed - 31st May 2017
This is my second attempt at a bird design. It is a simple 22.5 degree structure and doesn't take too long to fold.
PLESIOSAURUS
Designed - 9th March 2017
I had never designed a prehistoric origami creature before so I chose to make a plesiosaurus. It has a nice and easy folding sequence but does require thin paper for a good result.
HORSE
Designed - 12th February 2017
This model was inspired by Shuki Kato's slanted grid design technique. Although this model only has just over 200 steps, I think it is the most complex model I have designed.
SNAIL
Designed - 19th November 2016
This is a simple model with an effective colour change. It came out very well given that I used printer paper that had a solid orange/brown colour printed on the other side.
