Need some ideas for a hobby of mine

OK I have been doing Origami for 8-9 years now and running out of ideas for things to make(as you might imagine).

In case you do not know what origami is look it up it is the Japanese art of paper folding.

What i want you to do is post ideas on what to make (preferably animals or objects).

If i make anything good i will try to post an image of it here.

P.S.-

if you look at my age and it saids 15 and you wonder if i have really been doing it that long, I have the number was not an exaggeration. I got interested in it at age 6 was doing it more frequently at age 7.

(grin)How about a griffon?

That's easy.

A Cherubim.

I always thought the ones that actually move.. like the bird that flaps his wings when you pull on the tail.. are the best.. but I'm only faitly aware of the art.. I have seen a show where they actually Make their own paper because it has better folding characteristics..

Good luck!

This is so very impressive! It amazes me what people can do with paper. That is really awesome, Ternnel! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. And I honestly can't believe that it didn't take longer to make. If I tried that, it would end up as a glob of paper. Great job!!

Want to see an impression of me being wicked impressed?

Oh, you're not here.

Well, I'm wicked fricking impressed.

Solid work.
