The centuries-old art of origami — Japanese paper folding — produces remarkable paper creations that exhibit extraordinary realism and delicate beauty. Enthusiasts if this wonderful craft will welcome this challenging new collection of paper sculptures designed by John Montroll, renowned origami expert.
Twenty-five intricately detailed paperfolding projects feature strikingly lifelike animals from land, seas, and air: angelfish; seal; walrus; starfish; crane; swan; eagle; owl; snake; turtle; frog; frog with toes; bear; kangaroo; giraffe; fox; elephant; antelope; spider; crab; lobster; tyrannosaurus; brontosaurus; ornament; and star.
Fully illustrated step-by-step instructions and hundreds of diagrams explain how to fashion each of these intriguing sculptures. Beginning with symbols and basic folds, patterns progress from the simple angelfish to the complex and fascinating lobster.
Papercrafters who have mastered the basic folds of origami will find hours of enjoyment and personal satisfaction creating this parade of charming paper models. Animal Origami for the Enthusiast will inspire every dedicated origamian, while offering ample opportunity to hone papercrafting skills.
Beautiful animal designs, BUT sloppy illustrations. Frustrating!! This book was a mixed bag. Nearly all the animal figurines are beautiful and have an artistic life-like quality. I love that The designs are constrained to a single sheet of square paper that is neither cut nor taped. However, the illustrations are sloppily drawn. Sometimes the author gives you step-by-step instructions, but there’s always a place where you need to do a complicated maneuver without enough information. I’ve folded every animal in this book. Without fail, there are one or two steps that just aren’t drawn clear enough. It’s so frustrating. Origami is exacting art and the author clearly has a good understanding of the mechanics of folding. So why does it take me two or three tries to read his instructions? Get a better editor!Great book :) This is a great book. I have been folding Origami for over 18 years now and have read/used many books. This book has many fun to fold models that aren't overly complicated (some will be decently challenging, depending upon your past experience with folding). If you have some folding experience and want to get better, definitely get this book.Great intermediate level origami book The first edition of this publication was the very first origami book I acquired that got me interested in paper folding. The illustrations are sufficient (if you know what you're doing), and the finished models look great.A few tips if you are considering buying this book:1) This is not a beginner's book. If you have never folded anything before, you'll be lucky to be able to complete 3 or 4 models out of this entire book. Make your life less stressful and start with something easier.2) Most kids under a certain age will mentally not be able to grasp the concepts needed to fold certain models. Their brains are simply not developed enough. At the age of six I could fold everything up until the brontosaurus, but regardless of how much I tried, I could not progress any further. A few years later, I picked the book back up and was able to easily fold all the remaining models. If you have a child who cannot fold certain models, particularly the ones in the back of the book, it is not because there is something wrong with your kid; they have not yet developed the level of critical thinking required for the more advanced folds.3) For advanced folders, this book will not be very challenging. For something harder, give Robert Lang's Origami Insects a try, or if you can find them, the limited edition books released at the Origami Tanteidan convention every year.
