- mquil, on 12/22/2008, -1/+14Very awesome, i love some of them, thanx for sharing dear
- FlibidyDibidy, on 12/22/2008, -1/+11Wow finally a topic that I actually can contribute to. I've been folding for many years and i can attest to the skill of these compositions. Many of them are done by Satoshi Kamiya: http://www.folders.jp/ The Yoda is by Fumiaki Kawahata (another brilliant origami artist)
Also Number 14. The scaled Dragon is actually "Ryu Zin" by Satoshi Kamiya and yes each scale comes from the same piece of paper. Usually when one attempts this masterpiece they use a square of paper 2 meters by 2 meters.

I actually made this one a year or two ago out of a sheet of computer paper cut into a square (which produces a 3-inch tall Yoda). He still watches over me in my sleep. - talhaasifdar, on 12/22/2008, -3/+7I never been so close to art and this images made me realize what actually i was missing all these days
