Amazing artwork, this is a MUST HAVE, 11 Nov 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 3D Origami: Step-by-step Illustrations (3d Origami Series) (Paperback)
This book is nothing like other origami books. My friends even offered to pay for one of the swans I made from this book. Of course, it's alot more work than ordinary origami foldings (like cranes, and other single paper folded origami) but it's worth the work. Once you finish making one of those swans, you'll be looking at it and go "wow...did I make that??" You'll draw alot of attention and be very popular!Finished origami looks very sophisticated, yet it's very easy to make (just need little patience).
Buy this book, you won't regret and it's worth every penny.

Deceptively easy, 10 Feb 2004
By Marla Rudoni - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 3D Origami: Step-by-step Illustrations (3d Origami Series) (Paperback)
I first saw completed 3D origami projects of the dancing crane and peacock done by an older Japanese gentleman, who had lots more origami years under his belt than I, and said, "WOW". He handed me his 3D origami book to look at and within a few moments I realized that I could do any one of the projects shown too.
The instructions are very easy to follow. You might find it more difficult to find the exact paper you want.
You are folding the same size paper into triangles for projects then assembling them into rows to create your 3D project.
Be patient, some of the larger projects require hundreds of triangles. The good-luck hyotan (gourd) takes 762. Looks great when complete in gold or silver foil. I used gift wrap and cut it to the appropriate size because this required so many triangles.
In the end, you'll be very pleased with a completed project and your friends will be amazed.

Grat book to start of origami projects, 6 Jun 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 3D Origami: Step-by-step Illustrations (3d Origami Series) (Paperback)
I first saw a swan in a japanese restaurant and was interested in learning where they got it from. The owner of the restaurant said he had made it himself and reccomended this book to me to learn for myself.This book has really good explanations and step by step instructions to start with. the diagrams are very useful and the initial pages teach us how to fold the paper and all that.
it does get difficult to make the more complicated objects like the swan which requires about 600 pieces...it is better to start of with something small...
also it is pretty time consuming,,and as they say in the beginning of the book it is really nice for someone to have espescially if he is recovering from an illness...
i wud absolutely reccomend this book...
Listmania!
