Models for double sided paper

Post by malachi »

I have accumulated a stash of double sided paper with different colors on each side. Some of it is regular and some of it has foil on one side. I have not used much of it because I do not generally fold models that would show off the colors very well.

I would like some recommendations for interesting models for this type of paper. I am not afraid of complex models.

thanks,
malachi

John Montroll has some nice models, like the Zebra and the spotted Giraffe in "African Animals", and the tiger from "Origami Inside Out" (this book contains a lot of nice colour-change models).

greetings

If you blintz fold half the square on each side of the paper, then proceed to fold a crane, you can get some nice color variations.

A few worth folding:

DNA strip - Thoki Yen
Full-Rigged Ship - Patricia Crawford
Fluffy - Marc Kirschenbaum
Eagle - The Complete Book of Origami
Camel - Origami Sculptures
KNL Dragon - ODS
Jedi Master Yoda - Fumiaki Kawahata
Dragon - John Szinger
Annie Pidel's spinner designs. http://www.geocities.com/anniefolds/diagrams.html

With these I'd suggest your foil origami sheets, they work nicely:
Devil - Jun Maekawa or Hugo Pereira
Demonio - Fernando Gilgado Gomez
Satiro - Fernando Gilgado Gomez (My Avatar)

I think the Greatest Inside Out model is The Tiger by Komatsu Hideo.
Fumiaki Has a nice Racoon which changes colour at the tail, too.

It is diagrammed in Origami Tanteidan Convention No. 8.
There is a crease pattern on his website,

This may sound wierd but Akira Yoshizowa made a diagram for a pooping dog. It requires double sided paper. Look it up, its a real diagram

I may be mistaken, but I thought that the pooping dog was Ron Koh's model, not Yoshizawa's.
