    Origami ball

    Just wondered if anyone here has tried origami, this was my first attempt and i really enjoyed it alot!
    Its far from perfect, but i managed to pull it all together in the end, its made from one sheet of a3 paper, took me about 5 hours of constant folding, and heres the link, if you fancy looking :)

    It also squashes down and you can stretch it, which i think makes it even cooler hehe, its not rigid...

    btw if you fancy giving it a try theres some extremely detailed tutorials on youtube, just look up tesselation origami or origami ball, thanks for looking :)

    That is really cool, I have been doing origami on and off for a few years now. But unfortunately due to uni and other stuff I haven't had time to learn anything new in a while.

    Thanks mate :) the whole origami thing is way new to me, ive actually made a perfect version of the ball since that one, my 2nd try was much easier, and yeah its a cool hobby, a good way to spend a few hours here n there, and great satisfaction when something turns out good :) i dont suppose you have any galleries i can see some work? im always looking for inspiration xx
