I love this model. It is easy and relatively quick to fold.

Fox created by Hideo Komatsu. Available in the book Works of Hideo Komatsu.

There's a bunch of tutorials on youtube.

A friend asked me for this fox, I'm thinking of making two more because there are some variations that I want see if I'm capable of pulling off.

Owl designed by Román Díaz found in his book Origami Essence.

I wasn't sure if I had to give full volume to its body or curve it only to one side. I think I'll need to practise it a couple more tries before trying with a nicer paper.

This is Climbing Peaks by Sébastien Limet, from his book Just a Simple Base.

The folding process is relatively easy, the hard part is the final shaping.

The folding process felt a bit long but it wasn't really, that was just me being impatient.
The end result is great, the arms can be posed however you want and can be folded on a 15x15 kami paper.

I went through a flower phase a few years ago and recently during a big home reorganization, I brought them together, mended the occasional break, dusted them, and put them into a new base made from some packing paper I'd been holding onto 🧡

I love them all over again!

There was a lot of pre-creasing, something I'm not fond of, but the result was really neat.

Pictures don't make justice to the awesomeness of this model.

I like this owl, it can be done with a 15x15 paper and it doesn't take an eternity to fold.

These modular things are cool but I hate folding the modules.

I was attempting a lizard

I need to fold it a few more times to get the shaping right.

When I used to smoke I folded this a lot, it works great.

First time folding it. The model asks for thicker paper wet folded.

Designed by Xabier Sevillano.

Some people like to fold mostly animals, others are really into modulars like kusudamas or geometric patterns. There's also tesselations, super complex models, wet folding, crumpling, etc.

I'm pretty fond of wet folding.

so I had to settle with red and black.

Something went wrong folding the head.
