[O] Bahamut

Gosh, you're so talented. I wish I could fold paper like that! I'd get very frustrated.

I escpecially like the rose, because it's beautiful and the cactuar because it's soooo cute! :jess:

I don't imagine anyone here is a fan of really spiky bugs, but this was hard to make and I want to show someone:



Some photos of what a real one looks like...

You enjoy doing this, and you have somehow managed to convey that feeling in these.. structures I guess you could call them. It's like you've taken a little bit of joy and grounded it permanently in the physical.

nik0tine's description is right. :)

The praying mantis one was really great! They all are, but I love praying mantises so that's probably my favorite so far, along with Bahamut and Tiny Chocobo.

Tis a thing of beauty and skill that you have made!!! out of paper.....which isnt really a thing of beauty....but oh well you still have skill! :)

I do have a lot of fun making this stuff. Everyone should try. I creeped out people at work with this one:

Yeah, that's pretty creepy. :( Great craftsmanship, but creepy and I want it to be squished.

It's a beetle. It wouldn't squish so much as crunch.
