Artist's Comments
This is a model invented by Robert Lang, and published in the book "Origami Sea Life". Possibly the best origami book about sea animals out there. There are other shells in this book, but this one is my favourite.
I have folded twice this model to show both sides of the shell in a single picture. It is not a difficult model to fold, but not for beginners. The biggest one is folded with a 10" square of foilbacked paper with pink tissue paper. The smallest one is folded just with a 8" square of foilbacked paper. I varnished both models. I hope you like it. Author of the model: Robert Lang. Folded by: Me. Diagrams: Yes, in the book "Origami Sea Life" by John Montroll and Robert J. Lang, Dover ed. 1990. __________________________________ Éste es un modelo inventado por Robert Lang y publicado en el libro "Origami Sea Life". Posiblemente el mejor libro existente de papiroflexia sobre animales marinos. Hay otras conchas en este libro; pero ésta es mi favorita. He plegado dos conchas para mostrar dos vistas del mismo modelo en una única foto. No es un modelo realmente difícil; pero no es apto para principiantes. La caracola mayor está plegada con un papel cuadrado de 25 cm. Usé papel metalizado con papel de seda rosa. En la otra usé únicamente una hoja de papel metalizado de 20 cm. Barnicé ambos modelos. Espero que les guste. Autor del modelo: Robert Lang. Plegado por: Yo. Diagramas o desarrollos: Sí, en el libro "Origami Sea Life" de John Montroll y Robert J. Lang, ed Dover 1990. |

98% of people on DA claim they don't read signatures. Copy and paste this into your siggy if you're one of the people who read this to see what stupid made-up statistic it had.
