Hello, it’s DK. It’s another origami collection again this time. Origami is really time-consuming, and I’ve spent most of my time during this Thanksgiving break to complete it. This time it’s about humans, one of the trickiest models to fold ever. It takes skill not only in folding, but also shaping the model afterward. Otherwise they wouldn’t look like humans for the slightest. But I enjoyed making them anyway. Looking at them, I understand how much more difficult for God to create us comparing to the animals, and in no way we can be ape-related.
NONE of these models is my creation; I only fold them based on diagrams. They all come from ONE uncut piece of paper, which makes them so fantastic.
One more thing, this time I’ll try something new: instead of talking about them like I normally do, I’ll make up a story (or whatever you call it) throughout the collection. Ok, enough of my rambling, here we go
PART 05: PEOPLE OF HUMANITY
We all start our life inside our mothers, making them huge. But they never hate us because of that. Bearing us makes them happy.
PREGNANT WOMAN by Alec Fehl
After we get out, we are raised with love and gentleness.
MOTHER LOVE by Neal Elias - dedicated to my mom.
As we are growing up, we start to observe and learn new things around. We learn to live, and to enjoy life also.
BOY ON ROCKING HORSE by Neal Elias
Then we become adults. What can we do to our future? Will we become strong people?
SOLDIER by Tominaga Kazuhiro
…Will we be talented?
MAN IN HOOD SHOOTING KAMEHAMEHA* by Tomohiro Tachi
…Will we contribute, or will we just sit around thinking a lot but do nothing?
RODIN’S THINKER by Neal Elias
One day we will get old and be weary. What will we think of our life, of what we have done in our youth?
THE HUNCHBACK** by Mario A. Netto
Hopefully that we have done our best, and we have made the world a better place. Yes, hopefully we all have become some kind of heroes that we can be proud of.
A KNIGHT ON PEGASUS by Miyajima Noboru
Every one of us will have to choose our own paths. Be and do whatever your hearts desire, for this life is full of greatness. But, don’t ever forget to love, for this is what the world was made of.

Thank you.
Special thanks to Dong Kyeong for material; VNS Forum for diagrams; and Arwen for inspiration. :)
*Kamehameha is commonly known as Kamêjôkô in Vietnam
**The hunchback is not old. He is the main character in Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre-Dame. I only use him to portray an old person due to his shape.
