making tissue foil needs some practice but isn't too hard at all. and prices depend on the country in that you are living Anna filmed me making tissue foil some years ago.. gosh the video is from 2005 :shock: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4Z0efnmBhw the glue is at least here in Germany really chea...

What standard origami paper do you use?

I use "Abdeckpapier" for draft folding. its very cheap, but thin and strong. crappy for shaping but excellent for test folding.
if I don't use Abdeckpapier, I fold with self made tissue foil.

yepp... thats the way our world is working. you get something for free and instead of giving it away for free, you sell it. that's pretty clever, so you got the good book for half the price... sad sad world this is

shall thou disparage the power of a Whole Lotta Love.

so taste the tip of my sword heathen... thou shall not disparge the power of "paranoid"

I haven't used spray glue for tissue foil for YEARS. I use white glue and still think its the perfect glue for making tissue foil. I have folded a lot of things, from insects http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/7789/10665479046557858.jpg to the dragon http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/8191/drache.jp...

its not possible to post pictures that are on your computer. well... technically there are a couple of ways to do so (like for instance running a website on your computer) but its always better to use an online service like Image Shack or any kind of webspace.

regarding to your question. I just proof folded it to the seventh step and my model was exactly like in the picture shown. maybe you did something wrong with the squash in step 5?
