Fish are one of my favorite subjects in origami to design, mainly because they require more than just basic origami design knowledge to create fins and other appendages. Ones with color change require a new way of thinking. I knew how I was going to make the color change, then I just worked my way to making the body shape from there.
I was originally going to design a Royal Gramma, but I recalled a wrasse that had a similar color pattern and decided to design this instead.
I like the color of the fish in this picture more.
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.
After seeing all the beautiful ornaments that Holly has been making, I knew I had to try it out!
I am happy with how it turned out, but I don't think I have the paitence for too many! So much folding and too many pins! :)

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.
Here's the next installment of new work from my recent pendant swap. I call these my Fan Fold Pendants and I had fun coming up with these designs. They look very striking when worn and they have the simple clean bold look I love. I have another variation I will show you tomorrow. I also have made a few other prototypes of asymmetrical versions I can show in the future. Tell me your favorite and let now if you'd be interested in a tutorial on this design/technique.
Last February, I folded again a few older works (from 2012), in order to take new pictures and exhibit them, as the original ones were left somewhere around the world (maybe in Tokyo? maybe at EMOZ? maybe given as a gift to a friend? I don't remember now).
In particular, I folded a better rendition of each of these 3 works (Hexagonal Tessellation of Dodecagons #1, #2, #3, designed in Dec. 2012).
Then I asked a friend to take some pictures, and he was playing with macros and my "lightbox" (a plastic panel + his reptile lamp...)

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!

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...

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. ;)
