Origami Extreme - Part 3 !!!

Image
By

Hello everyone! It was just last week that I posted something, but it was 10 MONTHS since the last time I posted in English. Uhm, long, yeah, whatever.
So it’s origami again, and this time is about dragons! I personally like them a lot. They are such great and beautiful creatures. However, in origami, dragons are usually extremely hard to make, and the most difficult model in the world right now is a dragon called Ryujin version 3.5 by Kamiya Satoshi (You can click here to see the image). Since I’ve put a bit more effort this time than the two previous ones, hopefully you all would like it. :)
Again, most of them are made with one uncut square, and they are creations of other people. I just simply made them based on diagrams.

PART 03: DRAGONS
DRAGON FLIGHT by Charles Esseltine, pretty easy to make.
I don’t know the name of this model. It’s “Đầu rồng Thiên Long” in a manga called “Hiệp sĩ giấy”, published a long time ago :D
DIVINE DRAGON HEAD STATUE in “Hiệp sĩ giấy” manga also. I made this with 2 pieces of paper.
BEHAMUT (a.k.a. Divine dragon) by Kamiya Satoshi. If you look at part 02 again, you’ll see that he’s also the author of Unicorn, Chocobo, and Lion, and also Ryujin I’ve mentioned before.
CHUKA RYU by Hoang Trung Thanh. Yes, he IS Vietnamese!!! I made the dragon with seven pieces of paper. It took me forever to finish these scales =.=’
LAME DRAGON by Francisco Sanchez.
DRAGON SERPENT by Mario Netto.
HEART DRAGON by Fernando Gildago. I like this one, because it’s stocky somewhat, and the small wings are simply awesome.
SNAKE DRAGON by Marc Anglada.
DRAGON OF FIRE by Fernando Gildago again. This is my latest product (more precisely, I made it last night). This guy is really challenging, but the features are unique and worth-trying.
Yup, that’s it. I will be working on the next part, and will post it up as soon as possible.
Have a great Thanksgiving. Good bye!

How Many Words in This List That You Know?

By
How are you doing on your readings in general and more specifically in developing your vocabularies? Recently I started reading a book for my Finance class called The End of Wall Street by Roger Lowenstein. In the very first chapter of the book – a short 6-page prologue, there were many words that I did not know, and I am listing them here: destitute somnolent bulwark scrutinize (to) prick quiescent laudatory salient fervent (adj) frothy parlance umbilical (cord) placate carnage plenitude opiate dictum stupendous I was so surprised to see so many new words in such a small amount of pages! How is this Roger Lowenstein guy? You would think that while reading a finance book, the only words you would stumble upon are technical terms or lingos. Or maybe I am just bad. How many words in the list above that you already know?

It's Hard to Share!

By
I like to share. It’s not like donating stuffs (it’s good too) but more like… introducing to other people what I find interesting. So actually this post’s title should be: “ It’s Hard to… Introduce ”, but it wouldn’t sound as good. So there you go. Songs, books, movies, games… Whenever I find one interesting I’d love to show it to another person – like a “maven”*, if you know the term, even though I am not as specialized and valuable. It’s pretty much become a hobby of mine. “ Hey, you want to hang out? Come to my place and I’ll show you this awesome video clip I found last week!” And one day I finally realized the ugly truth, and I am sharing it with you right now. Well, the title exposes it: sharing interesting things is hard. It’s very weird, really, because when I share with someone the stuff I found, it’s not as interesting as before ! Almost always, when I play a movie or the song while introducing about it super-enthusiastically, I will feel that the movie or the ...

Origami Extreme - Part 08!!!

By
The other day, I came to watch some of my friends performing in the play called The Birds, and it was really fun! So I decided to make another Origami collection; this time it’s about birds – small birds which (supposedly) are all nice and peaceful. Anyway, I love things that fly. Talking about Origami, I now find myself avoiding overly-complicated models each of which would take days to complete. Instead, I’d go for fairly simple ones which are fast to make and still look really nice. That’s why I like more and more the models of John Montroll: really efficient.   PART 08: THE LITTLE BIRD   CURLEW by Tom Defoirdt – I had no idea that a curlew was. I had fun time folding it nonetheless. EXTINCT BIRD by Nicolas Terry – Mr. Terry always creates unique models. This “bird” was the most challenging for me in this collection. GORRION SPARROW by Roman Diaz – What?! There are different types of sparrows? I never knew! HORNED OWL by Hideo Komatsu – The thin...
