If you guys didn't know that one of my hobbies is origami then you either need to:
    A. Lurk
    B. Lurk moar
    C. LUCK MOAR
    D. Register for an account on IDW so you can see my occasional post of origami on the Community Forums.

Terribly lame jokes aside... As a disciple of the paper, I'm always on the look out for cool things to fold out of paper. I've been toying around with the idea in my head for quite some time, but I never really got it off the ground. Well its time to stop being lazy and do something! I task you, my fellow IDWers, to find origami things for me to fold. Whether it be a little simple crane, or a Yoda.

Post up a video or URL with instructions and I might just fold it! Now you have to be reasonable. I don't fold http://i.minus.com/jdKK916EzBeZb.jpg because they take forever and I don't have that much paper, nor do I fold ultra complex models such as http://i.minus.com/jbmy6StIsjE5LF.jpg. Not that I'm saying keep it simple, I do like a challenge every once in a while and variety so if you guys find something cute don't hesitate to post it up! I'll try my best to fold it! Right now I'm kinda going through a box phase, so if you find any cool origami box patterns... hook a brotha up!

Some of my earlier works include but are not limited to.....:

I tried out a little of this origami thing years ago; and while I did certainly like it, I never really got into it. I never really made awesome stuff like this either (though I sure wish I could).
Great work with these, CG2. I'm especially liking the dragon, Google and Yoda ones.

Unfortunately though, I'm not really gonna be posting any paper foldings here right now, so this thread's not really gonna take off yet. But I do hope you get people contributing to this thread soon.

I'm kinda sad that no one else posted in here... Are you guys not entertained!?! Well anyway I just figured out that I've been doing origami incorrectly this entire time! Ugh, now I have to go back and learn the basics all over again.

That's probably one of his best videos. It's a shame he's turned into a pathetic parody of himself lately.

That Yoda is so rad, It's a shame I just found this thread now. Maybe I'll try my hand at some origami and post my success or most likely my failure

Nice work!
Unfortunately origami is one thing I'm never good at.. for some reason I would always get lost somewhere in the middle of the instruction and can never make the shape again..
