Re: [Origami] Creating by taking a little from here and a little from there

I tried to explain that that wasn't what I meant with what I've called so far the "Fran

HI, I might be doing a talk about origami in a couple of months. That made me think about the topic. I really wanna do it about a method I sometimes use when I create new models: I mix specific folding ideas from different models ending up with a new one. Know what I mean? Most of the times they a
