Les rennes de l'attelage se préparent ! Modèle très original de Stéphane Gigandet plié à partir d'une longue bande de papier

En voilà une bonne idée, ces petites étiquettes cadeau de Grace Matthews, pour écrire un mot ou se souvenir de quel cadeau va à qui !

C'est le pompon ! 😆
Alliance amusante entre un modèle traditionnel (le casque de samouraï) et le thème de Noël, par Katsuta Kyohei. Le pliage est tellement naturel qu'on dirait que le casque n'attendait que cela ! Le carré de départ est diminué de deux bandes dans l'intersection desquelles est fait le pompon. Ensuite, il ne reste plus qu'à plier le casque avec le carré qui reste. C'est malin !

Simple et jolie boîte carrée de Robin Glynn (inventée indépendamment par Tomoko Fuse), en très peu de plis, et aux proportions élégantes.

La boîte fermée avec ses quatre rabats qui s'entrelacent.

J'ai du retard, parce que j'avais plein de choses à faire cette semaine et aussi parce que l'épisode du 13 décembre proposait 3 modèles différents, mais en mentionnait pas moins de 6, et en creusant je me suis rendu compte qu'Hideo Komatsu a en fait créé une quantité phénoménale de pères Noël (il y en a un qui se décline en plein de variantes). Je voulais tous les plier, mais j'étais désemparé devant l'ampleur de la tâche (et je ne voulais pas que toutes mes feuilles rouges y passent). Bref, en voyant que je prenais de plus en plus de retard j'ai décidé hier que je n'allais finalement plier que les modèles qui me faisaient envie (oui je sais, c'est compliqué dans ma tête).
Donc, deux petits pères Noël, un abstrait triangulaire qui a une fermeture très maligne, et le père Noël "zabukoto" (à gauche) que j'ai trouvé *incroyable*. Les séquences de pli sont très originales, il tient debout, il a des habits super jolis et je me suis exclamé plusieurs fois en le pliant « oh trop bien ! » tellement j'ai pris de plaisir à le plier !

This morning’s task at work is to make tiny origami santa hats for my desk ducks.
We had a cool assignment in #drawing class: (1) fold a big piece of paper such that there are clear shadows on the page; (2) 'fixate the shadows' by spraying paint on it; (3) wet the paper and let it dry under heavy weight to make it straight again; (4) draw fragments of architecture (& other things or people) on parts of the drawing.
I enjoyed it so much that I tried the assignment twice. (I also learned the Miura-ori fold in the process but didn't use it in my own design. #origami)
Smaller drawing more in line with the assignment. This was a piece of A4 printer paper that I initially used to test my folding and the effect of the spray paint. I added a black ink line drawing of the old postal building of Ghent to the largest facet and two details of the same building in smaller ones. I also drew three symbols related to email in the others, to make it a thematic whole: new vs old mail.
Detail of the previous drawing, focusing on one of the 2D parts: an Egyptian eye. It shows the metallic effect quite nicely.
Drawing of an Egyptian temple on a piece of back paper (a bit larger than A3). The original yellow painted part is on the right. It didn't cover much of my paper and unintentionally ended up looking like pyramids, so I turned the page, but stuck with the theme. I used metallic pencils to stand out on the black underground, and some yellow pastel crayon to get a similar effect as the paint. I didn't follow the assignment exactly: instead of drawing fragments of a building, I drew one scene (by reinterpreting the original folding lines as perspective lines, which gives the temple a slightly contorted look). I did add three 2D-looking details that aren't part of the 3D scene, though.

Un peu l'impression d'être dans mon autre calendrier de l'Avent avec ce modèle 🤣
C'est un joli flocon de Daša Ševerova, qui est aussi très joli par transparence.
Je rappelle que vous pouvez plier vous-mêmes ces modèles en écoutant le podcast (voir le lien qui est dans le premier post) !

Again a nice model today, called Hexagon Double Bar Wells. It has hexagon twists in one side and open triangle twists on the other side. I lacked a little bit of precision for the hexagon twists, as can be seen by the size of the dots inside them on the backlighting view... The close placement of these patterns created some tricky interactions. I can feel the difficulty ramp up already! 😅

The backlighting view: one can see seven pointy stars, one for each hexagon.
The reverse side: 12 triangles that correspond to the holes on the other side.
An origami tessellation with one hexagon in the centre and six around it. They are all linked by paper bands. In the middle of each three bands is a small triangular hole, corresponding to an open triangle twist on the other side.

I find this one very pretty and I am not sure if black was the best color for it... The range of twists still expands with this one, which uses a central double hexagon twist, six simple hexagon twists on the reverse side, and simple triangle twists on the front. I think the pattern works particularly well!

The backlighting view: the outside triangles delimit six rectangular zones which appear to surround the central hexagon.

Woo I really liked today's tessellation, called Wobbly Pyramids! It looks the same on both sides (it's actually mirrored). To achieve this, one has to fold twists on both sides of the paper: it was my first time doing that. It comes with a new kind of challenge: making sure that the paper that you need on one side is not stuck on the other side, and it requires a bit of planning. That was fun! And I really like the backlighting of this one :)

The backlighting which is very busy! Full of tiny lines and triangles
The reverse side, which is exactly the same as the front side, but mirrored.
