Axolotl snake thingy

One of those random designs. I was trying to make a spider (hence the many points on the head) but the “legs” where taking up too much room and I thought it looked cute as an axolotl so I made a tongue. Then I realized I didn’t have enough room for a body so I cut it short at a snake body.

Sniper

Always have a plan. That is a machine pistol if things get a little too close.

I always wanted to make an origami archer. Then I thought, “Why not a sniper?”. They take up about the same amount of paper (one hand included the barrel, the other included the scope and stock which was a tradeoff for a bow and arrow). It is more natural for a sniper to be wearing a hood so the head was easy.

There are fingers and with better paper and pictures, the product would actually look like a sniper but I had to lock the rifle together and I didn’t want to fiddle with it too much after that so here it is.

Dota 2 Lycan Version 2

My what big teeth you have. (I don’t even think he bites).

Making Lycan in wolf form is still easier than human form. I put more emphasis on the from legs and head than the back legs. This version captures his form much better than the previous version. The back legs unfortunately have no claws but the mouth has teeth so It is an equal tradeoff.

Dota 2 Sven’s Sword

Sven‘s godsword. He is like a mini Kunkka but more with more consistency and less damage. This one came pretty easily. The circle is the same on the other side but the top part is not.

Dota 2 Invoker

Look at that disproportional head. After all he needs to remember all his spells….

So begins a new age of knowledge.

Invoker is generally considered the hardest hero in Dota 2 because instead of having 4 set spells, he creates spells with combinations of quas, wex, and exort. In addition to knowing what all 14 spells do, good timing and positioning is required to play a good invoker.

He has a big head for a reason. Even remembering all those spells could be a problem….

Giant Squid Versus Sperm Whale

I learned that giant squids and sperm whales are natural enemies. Making the sperm whale graft was easy enough (only used a fourth of the paper) so the squid takes up the majority of the paper. I might try this model again because I was hoping to get them slightly farther apart.
