Origami Dragons
To thank Olivier for helping me get 2 tester bottles of CK Eternity from HK (yes my will crumbled), I embarked on a mini origami project this morning. The theme was dragons, of the western variety. I eventually came up with 2 versions.

Dragon A turned out pretty well. It's in flight, and looks pretty sleek and streamlined. For origami fans, this is basically a variation of the crane, with an additional lower jaw folded in to give it the fearsome I'm-going-to-bite-you-hard-and-then-spit-fire look. The only problem was that it didn't stand/ sit very well since like the crane, it doesn't have legs. This gave rise to...


Not bad actually, for a first-time dragon folder. I'll work on Version A more and see what happens. Anyone who wants one can get me more EDTs.

The first thought I had after this dragon was completed: Man... I've gone and folded a mutant turkey. The legs, made with 4 additional rabbit folds to Version A, looked stunted and didn't let the dragon stand. I also didn't sink the spine of the Version B (because I'm lousy at sinking), so the hump actually gave it a dinosaur look. What I have therefore, is a prehistoric mutant turkey.
