Banana, by Andrew Hudson

    I designed this a couple weeks ago when I got my hands on some yellow paper, and then realized that I didn't have anything to fold with it... Naturally, a banana came to mind, so I tried my hand at designing one and I think it came out pretty well! This model is best when wetfolded from thick-ish paper. I used two sheets of letter paper glued together, and folded while the glue was still wet.

    Diagrams here.
