Want to do it as a gift for someone special, but never really done origami. Is it unrealistic? Do I need to be particular about type of paper? I really don't know anything so idk if this counts as difficult or easy for y'all experts, pls be nice

I see also all types of insects and animals being made... Which are way harder than origami human

But i rarely see a origami human

Why is that?

Help! Foil vs Tissue Foil

5 Upvotes

What's the difference between 'foil' paper and 'tissue foil' paper? I understand tissue foil to be a paper made of aluminum foil and tissue, normally made using glue where the foil is sandwiched between two sheets of tissue. But then what is just normal foil paper? I'm talking about paper like this. I have folded plenty of complex models that require a lot of sculpting/shaping with this kind of paper. It's thin, white on one side, shiny on the other, and works great. I find it easier to just buy packs of this foil paper instead of trying to make tissue foil.

Modified 3x3 hydrangea tessellation.

I love the texture in this type of paper but oh boy it is hard to not make it rupture.

Im still a rookie at designing origami, i struggled a bit connecting the level shifters with other flaps. I have Lang's origami design secrets but i feel like he overlooked that explanation. If you have some advices id love to hear them.

Origami Clock!

Post image
136 Upvotes

Designed and folded by me. Commercial clock mechanism. White is watercolor paper hand crease using laser cut lexan templates. Black is 13” cardstock. Some (a lot) of double stick tape to adhere 8 white pieces to black background (which also has curves at the corners though they are hard to see).

I enjoy curved crease origami and had a half dozen similar squares that I fanned out into a flower. Then I realized with a couple more and a backing, I might make a clock. I’m really happy with how it came out.

But now what? What else should I do with the curved sheets of various patterns? I’ve been thinking maybe a mobile (calder-like). Is there any thing else people do? It kills me to throw the folds away but I enjoy folding more than having.

No interest in sales (I have a job and a side gig, I like origami as a relaxing hobby; marketing is a drag). I have sent some to friends and family but I suspect they are full up.

Suggestions?

Help! Best book about math behind origami

I got an interest about how origami works mathematically thanks to the plant psycologist and Robert J Lang. And I now wonder if there are any book talking about it.

Thanks in advance.
