In this blog inspired by Wolf, I showcase models that I design and post information of interest to the origami folder. I also have a photostream in Flickr (the link is down there). Do enjoy your visit here and don't forget to tag or leave a few comments on my work! If you have folded any of my models, please send their pictures to me, and I will be delighted to publish them in this blog. By the way, please check out the "Important Links" below the archives; they are that important :) The "Origami Singapore" page has links to other folders from Singapore. Have fun!

A Grand Entrance

Yo folks!

Here's the new sub-model i promised in the last post!



The doors are actually made from the "extended flaps" in the picture below:



It's actually very simple to make; just create a raised platform with dimensions 2 x 4, and x = 1.

To include these doors onto a building, you must create the door right in the space where you are going to create a building block. You will have to plan out the position of the door, and if the building block is big enough, you can actually move the door higher up to make a window.

Just as the dimensions of the platform can be changed, the size of the doors can also be varied, so you can make a set of tall, narrow doors or short, wide ones.

This is only one example of the many possible functions of the raised platform sub-model. Curious folders are free to explore and come up with new ways to use the platform in their models.

This a short post, cos' I'll be meeting Wolf and gang in the afternoon. See ya!
