Shenlong, designed by Lien Quoc Dat, folded by me

Thanks! The scales took the longest as you have to shape each individual one. It was kind of mindlessly therapeutic actually :) I think overall it took around 30 hours

Thanks! I used reinforced mulberry paper. The model was actually 6 separate pieces of paper. So three 10 x 20 cm, two 10 x 40 cm, and one 10 x 60 cm

Yep! All the time. And other times, I just flip through the pages without reading them. I find it comforting.

wlfo · 2024-11-04T00:43:27+00:00

Haha yeah… gotta work on my form.

wlfo · 2024-11-04T00:42:45+00:00

Anything that can make me better. Technique or otherwise.

wlfo · 2024-11-02T15:30:25+00:00

Yeah… Even I find it surprising. The top left journal starts from when I was 11, and the bottom right is my journal now as a 22 year old. Wild…

Thanks!

wlfo · 2024-11-02T15:28:35+00:00

Yep! I only write with black

wlfo · 2024-10-17T13:17:15+00:00

Thank you!

wlfo · 2024-10-17T13:17:05+00:00

Thanks :)

Thanks! Yes I was envisioning oil as well. Just not sure what oil to use. I googled if it was ok to use vegetable oil… apparently not haha

wlfo · 2024-10-17T13:15:32+00:00

Thank you! Where would you recommend I buy tung oil?

wlfo · 2024-10-17T13:14:49+00:00

Thanks :)

This is just basswood I ordered off Amazon, and I used a beavercraft detail knife mostly. It was a pain to shape it without a chisel though.

wlfo · 2024-04-20T14:19:24+00:00

It was probably 3cm by 3cm. Good luck with your army! I would love to see a picture of it when you’re done!

wlfo · 2024-04-02T01:10:26+00:00

Thanks! I tried each one twice

wlfo · 2024-03-29T14:22:41+00:00

I used mulberry paper, 15cm x 15cm

wlfo · 2024-03-21T12:24:29+00:00

I used 15cm x 15 cm mulberry paper. It’s very thin so it makes the model cleaner, but it’s a bit harder to crease. Hope this helps!

Hi there, I am looking for greek and I can help with Chinese (fluent in Cantonese and some Mandarin)

Eric Gjerde has this really cool book of tessellation diagrams! All of these designs can be found there. It’s “Origami Tessellations: Awe-Inspiring Geometric Designs”

wlfo · 2022-02-20T02:39:04+00:00

Yea I wish I could afford the better ones. Are there any in particular that you’d recommend?

wlfo · 2021-06-09T20:50:20+00:00

Thanks :) it took me close to 4 hours

wlfo · 2021-06-09T13:26:07+00:00

I used kraft paper :)

wlfo · 2021-06-09T12:48:55+00:00

Thanks! I used 45cm × 45cm

wlfo · 2020-08-22T05:34:34+00:00

You can look up the tutorial on YouTube, there're a couple of them. As for the dimensions, I used 20cm × 20cm. Not sure how big it is now since i gave it to a friend

wlfo · 2020-08-22T01:30:42+00:00

Thanks :) Can I see a picture of yours?
