Baby Fugu (inflatable action model)

    Newer Older

    This is a retake of my Puffer Fish

    See it in action here:

    Designed by Sipho Mabona Dezember 2006
    Folded by Sipho Mabona July 2007

    Folded form one uncut square of 40cm origamido paper (did you see the brown freckles?)

    I had to make a retake of this model in order to draw diagramms and a CP (diagramms aren´t finished yet) and also because the CDO and Jason Ku are owners of my two first versions.

    I think it turned out a lot cleaner and cuter than the previous version so I call it Baby Fugu.

    DK Jackson, EricGjerde, ckn.niwatori, and 100 other people added this photo to their favorites.

      Wow once I returned home I was going to upload the video I did of you blowing the model at the convention but now there is no use. Great model. Looking forward for the CP

      I made a hedgehog using this tesselation, inspired by your model. I haven't quite finished it yet (I need some brown paper) but you can expect pictures soon.

      are you serious, that's exactly what eric joisel did! check out his hedge hodge.

    10. Ryan MacDonell 70 months ago | reply

      Well, not quite. He used the tessellation differently.
      I've folded his hedgehog, and it's not quite the same as mine.

      Have the diagrams been in the Paper yet? I haven't gotten one in a long time, but I'm looking forward to my next one, especially if they have the instructions!
