This little guy was hoping to use the toilet paper as a treadmill for some exercise, but there was too much friction and he just fell off.

Not everyone's favorite creature, but I studied insect drawing for a year, and they are fascinating creatures! Unfortunately I no longer have the fuller drawings, so I post this 'overview'.

 

When you put an insect in a jar---and it calms down---you see that insects are amazingly segmented creatures: They have all kinds of moveable parts, and there are so many types...after a while, I thought, "holy cow: these things are walking around everyday, and they're a street fair!" I call this dude "Eddie" (Why not?) (It was between that and "King Philip III of Spain," but that name was taken, so I stuck with "Eddie".) I let him outside after I drew him. Wasn't too fond of making him a boarder...

I thought this was an albino cockroach, then I realised it just emerged from the exoskeleton (right) and is waiting for it to harden and colour up

Designed and folded by me. Folded from one unsut square of Origamido paper. Folded July 2009. Designed in February of 2008.

 

Actually an older design I decided to pick up again because I liked it so much. The base is very unique as it allows for toes as well as spines on all 6 of the legs.

 

And so Jon wouldn't get mad I actually used some size on the paper before I folded it :3

Designed and folded by me from one uncut square.

A week of posting on my blog coming up... step son Dan has us all thinking "vampires" (and rubbery cockroaches!!) as he approaches the date to start shooting his end of year short film that will complete his first year at film school. Yes, it is a vampire film. We are so proud of him :)
