Origami Creatioins - Cube Octahedron

Another interesting geometrical shape called the Octahedron by the famous japanese origamist Toshikazu Kawasaki (the same person who designed the Kawasaki rose) will be the next model that I decided to fold.

It also uses 6 units and is practically a cube with the corners cut off.  Thus resulting to a total of 8 triangular plane face emerging from this geometric figure.

Cool and sturdy model

Quite impressed by its shaping but beware of the challenge in assembling the model with its last piece.  Try and be amazed :-).

Here is the video tutorial for this model.

Enjoy!

Origami Creations - Multi-color Stripe Cubes

Another awesome cube I found in the web is the Multi-color cube (Cubo Multi-cor) by Rita Foelker and the Line Cube by Fumiaki Shingu.

Again, its a model which I cannot be bored looking at especially when you used 6 different colored square kami to make it.  As usual, this model does not require cutting or gluing.

A gem of a beauty

What do you think?  

I believe you are getting excited to make this too so I am enclosing the link of the diagram here.  For Mr. Shingu's model, the diagram is here.

Enjoy!
