The folding sequences are clear and the instructions precise. Thus far, I have attempted folding Nguyen Hung Cuongʼs Chef Rat, inspired by the movie Ratatouille, and Hoang Tien Quyetʼs duck. Kami paper will be a poor choice for nearly all of the models better is Tant, Canson, or other papers suitable for wet folding and thick layers. With 31 models and two crease patterns in all, the collection's models range from intermediate to super complex, with the crease pattern for Lich King (from World of Warcraft) taking a whopping 30 hours to fold by itself!įolders should be experienced in navigating complicated sequences, shaping the models to get the desired effect, and should be accustomed to working with large paper sizes. Along the way, they solicited advice from the origami community to determine which models should be included in the collection.
Terry's latest project, 50 Hours of Origami +, is a compilation of amazing work by talented young origami artists from Vietnam who are members of the Vietnam Origami Group, or VOG.Ĭompiled and edited by Nicolas Terry, with help from Giang Dinh, it took them several years to coordinate efforts in collecting, editing, and assembling the diagrams. Through Terry's efforts to supplement the world of large-scale, commercial origami books, he's published the works of some of today's most talented designers, including Roman Diaz and Quentin Trollip. By now, everyone knows that the publication of a new book overseen by Nicolas Terry will be something special.
