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!

Timcanpy v.1.0

Merry Christmas guys!

Recently, I've started watching the anime D.Gray-man, a supernatural anime which is still being released from Japan. Of course, I've been longing to fold something from the anime, so I set my eyes on the golem Timcampy, which looks something like this. However, it turned out to be a little hard, so I aimed at something easier, a little golden ball with wings.

Well, most of the trouble came with the ball shape. Perfect spheres are never found in origami, but there are models that come close to one, like the waterbomb. As a result, Timcampy v.1.0 is simply a waterbomb with wings:



If you followed the last link, you'd realize that the above model is missing a tail. In future versions, I'll try to make a tail using grafting. I'd need a really long one...

This model is too simple to make a CP for, I'll try to make some diagrams instead. ^_^

At the very least I can put on a good face to a bad result and call this model the Golden Snitch!
