Origami Cat Nap

Day 131 - Origami Cat Nap

Model : Origami Cat Nap
Design : Philip Schulz
Complexity : Medium
Folding Instruction
    Diagram : Diagramed by Philip Schulz
Paper : 4.5 Inches

Origami Cat nap is based on Origami fish base.As I am really bad at following diagrams only I serached for video instructions and found none .Most of the pplaces where I found the diagram it was incomplete.
It was in origami.happymagpie.com that I found the complete diagram.

Somehow I managed following the diagram( even though the author is so clear in the diagram ) and made my cute little cat nap model.As the paper I choose was too stiff the cats tail kept on going away from the intended position so I cheated a little and used glue to keep it in place :D.

Here's my cat nap model.

Origami cat

Day 130 - Origami Cat

Model : Origami Cat
Complexity : Medium
Folding Instruction
    Diagram : www.giladorigami.com
    Video : Super1600
Paper : 3*3 Inch one side coloured square paper

This one is simple only for the part where you crease - open and refold to get the body and the tail.

I found the instructionson youtube on a channel by super1600.The video instructions are good to follow but one needs to be really careful and make crisp folds to get the exact model also certain places the folds dont seem clear as they are very small folds and the paper colour is reflecting making it tough to understand the fold.

This camel start with origami bird base.The difficult part is the hind legs coz you keep on making small folds so I would suggest to start with a bigger square for beginners else you may end up with a trash.Otherwise its a pretty simple model.
