I didn't think I would like this shot that much - lighting was kind of boring. But when I opened it full screen, there was such a drama to the shape of the hills I knew immediately it was a keeper.

The smallest thing that I folded, without using any tools, just my hands and fingers. I am very happy with the result, that's my second try of this model since 2013.
A menor coisa que já dobrei até agora, sem auxilio de nenhuma ferramenta, só meus dedos. Fiquei muito feliz com o resultado, é a minha segunda tentativa desse modelo desde 2013.
There's not a lot of room in the box of a travel bike so when Ted asked me to make him a folding rack, I knew exactly how flat it needed to be. His travel bike is just about done and I'll be painting it next week.
From Wikipedia:
Dinosaur Provincial Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located about two and a half hours drive southeast of Calgary, Alberta, Canada or 48 kilometres, about a half hour drive, northeast of Brooks.
The park is situated in the valley of the Red Deer River, which is noted for its striking badland topography. The park is well known for being one of the richest dinosaur fossil locales in the world. Forty dinosaur species have been discovered at the park and more than 500 specimens have been removed and exhibited in museums across the globe. The renowned fossil assemblage of nearly 500 species of life, from microscopic fern spores to large carnivorous dinosaurs, justified it becoming a World Heritage Site in 1979.
The Dinosaur Provincial Park Visitor Centre features exhibits about dinosaurs, fossils, and the geology and natural history of the park. There is a video theater, fossil prep lab area, and a gift shop. Public programs are offered in the summer.
John Ware's Cabin is a restored early 20th cabin that was used by John Ware, an African-American cowboy and important figure in Alberta's ranching history. The cabin is located near the visitor center and is open on select days in the summer.
Established on June 27, 1955 as part of Alberta's 50th Jubilee Year with the goal of protecting the fossil beds, the first warden was Roy Fowler (1902-1975), a farmer and amateur fossil hunter.
Until 1985 discoveries made in the park had to be shipped to museums throughout the world for scientific analysis and display, including the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa, and the American Museum of Natural History in New York. This changed with the opening of the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology 100 kilometers upstream in Midland Provincial Park adjacent to Drumheller.
The park was established as a UNESCO World Heritage Site on October 26, 1979 both for its nationally significant badlands and riverside riparian habitats, and for the international importance of the fossils found here. An official dedication ceremony and plaque unveiling were held at the Park's overview area on June 19, 1980.
The park protects a very complex ecosystem including three communities: prairie grasslands, badlands, and riverside cottonwoods. Its ecosystem is surrounded by prairies but is unique unto itself. Choruses of coyotes are common at dusk, as are the calls of nighthawks. Cottontail rabbits, mule deer, and pronghorn can all be seen in the park; the prairie rattlesnake, bull snake and the red-sided garter snake are present as well. Curlews and Canada geese are among the 165 bird species that can be seen in the spring and summer. Some of the most northern species of cactus, including Opuntia (prickly pear) and Pediocactus (pincushion) can be observed in full bloom during the later half of June.
The sediments of Dinosaur Provincial Park span 2.8 million years and three formations: the terrestrial Oldman Formation at the base of the strata, the terrestrial Dinosaur Park Formation above, and the marine Bearpaw at the top. The Dinosaur Park Formation, which contains most of the fossils from articulated skeletons, was primarily laid down by large rivers in very warm temperate coastal lowlands along the western margin of the Western Interior Seaway. The formation dates to the Late Campanian, about 75 million years ago. The Dinosaur Park Formation spans about 1 million years.
Dinosaur Provincial Park preserves an extraordinarily diverse group of freshwater vertebrates. Fish include sharks, rays (such as the durophage Myledaphus), paddlefish, bowfins, gars, and teleosts. Amphibians include frogs, salamanders, and the extinct albanerpetontids. Reptiles include lizards (such as the large monitor Paleosaniwa), a wide range of turtles, crocodilians, and the fish-eating Champsosaurus. Mammals such as shrews, marsupials, and squirrel-like rodents are also represented, although usually only by their fossilized teeth, rather than bones.
Mega-plant fossils are rare in the park, but pollen grains and spores collected from here suggest that these Campanian forests contained sycamore, magnolia and bald cypress trees, along with Metasequoia.

Shell design by Tomoko Fuse
Medium: 30x30 double tissue paper
CP: Here
This is the hermit crab from the CP a few days ago. The layers got very thick, especially towards the opening of the shell. Especially since there is a brown stripe running down the middle of the shell. Perhaps I can fold the edges of the white side paper underneath so I can get a good spiral effect...
I also don't really have a good locking mechanism - I just curved the two edges of the shell underneath to "lock" it. The shell is of course the Navel shell from Tomoko Fuse's SPIRAL book. The shell isn't exactly 3D, which is what I prefer for hermit crab designs, but it works nevertheless, as I had this shell in mind when designing.
This picture shows the "navel" of the shell design.
Deboxing my Red Jasmine doll. After removing the backing from box, her skirt is partially freed from the backing to show her shoes and pants. You can see that one of her legs is tied to the doll stand, and the back of her skirt is folded and hiked above the tie. Then she is freed from the backing and the stand, and laid down on the floor.
I purchased the D23 Exclusive Limited Edition Red Jasmine 17'' Doll on her release day, Saturday August 15, 2015, from the Disney Store in the D23 Expo 2015. She is a red colored and enhanced variant of the LE 5000 Teal Jasmine, which I pre-ordered on August 4, 2015, and will be released on October 13, 2015. She is LE 500, and costs $119.95.
My doll is #226 of 500. She is such a beautiful doll, and is by far my favorite item from the Expo. She is on my desk right now, so I can admire her beauty up close as I work on my computer.
One aspect of Jasmine that I haven't mentioned before, and wasn't obvious to me when she was still boxed, is the distinct golden tone of her torso. Her head and arms have a more normal pinkish tan color. It's almost as if she got the Goldfinger treatment on her torso, both front and back. By the way, her painted on panties are gold colored, and not red as you might have guessed.
Her hair is massive and very heavy. It is permanently styled into a fancy puffy pony tail, the bottom third of which is heavily gelled to keep its curl. The upper two thirds are nice and soft. The weight of her hair make her tilt to the back and to her right, unless she is carefully posed and balanced in her stand. I didn't like the way the stand was placed behind her skirt, severly crimping it in the back. Fortunately, the slit at the waist of the skirt/pants combo was large enough to place the top of the display stand through it, so the post is inside of her skirt, instead of behind it.
I'm don't know if all the Red Jasmine dolls have the same golden tint, but I don't mind it too much. It gives her an otherworldly aura, and in my mind doesn't detract from the beauty of her face and outfit and jewelry.
I will post photos of Red Jasmine boxed, during deboxing and fully deboxed.
My first live snake shot!
Most of the 20 or more kinds of watersnakes in India are "keelbacks"-which means that each scale has a tiny fold in it. The most common freshwater snakes are the checkered keelback and the olive keelback. Both are widely found in India but are mostly snakes of the plains and lower hills. The checkered keelback varies in color from black to yellow, with a black-and –white checked pattern. It has black straks on the eye and a long head. It is active both during day and at night. We have seen them flatten their heads and rear up like cobras when frightened. A freshly caught checkered keelback is a real biter. The female lays her 20 to 40 eggs in a hole or tunnel, and stays with them until hatching time.
The shape of this pendant is of course from my "Shapes" book. In fact it is the same design as the pendant on the books cover (one of my favorites!). The surface technique is derived from the fan-fold technique I've been showing you, if you can believe that! It's very easy, organic, unique and has lot's of dimension. I'll include this surface technique in the fan-fold tutorial.

I'd be a bit worried that it does that while I'm riding.

This small rover is designed to fit into the CS Explorer planetary survey craft. Once folded down it can be stored in the rear of the craft.
It's also my entry for the FebROVERy group!

Precreasing is kind of tedious but does not take long. As usual with flagstones, there is no actual collapsing method, you just arrange the creases in their adequate direction and flatten all at once.

I'm not gone guys! I stumbled across a woodworker on youtube who made a "red herring", so I decided to make my origami rendition of this literary pun. I was inspired by Tetsuya Gotani's Trout, which used a frog base to make a fish with all the fins, so I decided to challenge myself to use a frog base as well to see how far I can go. The anal fin should have been more pushed back near the tail, and it was a challenge to shape, but I think the end result looks fantabulous. ;)

Too busy with school to design things these days...
And of course the day before I have to leave back to college is a rainy day, so I could not use sunlight and had to use something else instead.
I believe this model is well folded but poorly designed. It's just a graft for the arms(wings>) and legs. If I showed the CP, anyone can fold it. It's that easy. Actually now that I think about it it's not exactly my best designed folded model ever despite it being closed belly. The photo and model look sloppier than I originally thought. This is what months of no designing does to you.
I need to find a way to hide the color layer inside the legs. And perhaps I can exploit more color change. I guess that will happen when I revisit this in version 2.0
P.S. - Can someone teach me how to remove wire in photoshop? It doesn't help that I have version 7.0 on this computer...
