Thanks for the good wishes.
I think spell check fixed Saar for me. Can not complain, some of you know
how bad my spelling can be.
The Saar Star by Endla Saar and diagrammed by Samuel Randlett is one of two
stars requested for OUSA annual gift. When they light The Origami Holiday
Tree at the Museum of Natural History in New York City they give a origami
gift to the guests. The Museum of Natural History mails out the request
along with two sheets of paper and diagrams. Though I live along way away
(not as far as you) from NYC I try to send something, I appreciate the
diagrams.  I missed the dead line for the little stars but will try to get a
Omega star or two done for them.
The Saar Star is "nifty" and looks good small and in foil.

Obscure!!? They're as common as hen's teeth! In fact I am using one as a
foot rest here at work (very ergonomic) - their coarse fur means they can
double as a shoe-scraper, ideal for getting the crud off your soles on a
wet day.

It is a little known fact that wombats developed the definition of a
straight line (ie. the shortest possible distance between two points),
as not fences, nor bushland, nor prefabricated homes can stand between
them and their destination.

[Disclaimer - the above e-mail is meant to be taken as a *joke*. I feel it

There is a five-point version of the Saar star in The Magic of Origami by

OUSA for the tree-lighting reception, but the five point version is, in
my opinion, much more beautiful. It starts with a pentagon, which makes
it more of a nuisance, so I can see why OUSA requested the four-point

Dear Elise, and sundry lurkers of the list,

What is the OUSA annual, well I could do a very snappy song and dance
number right here but instead I think I'll answer the question.

Every year OUSA (Origami USA A.K.A. Friends of the Origami center, or
just plain OUSA) hosts a convention of paperfolders in New York city,
one of the big things about this convention is not only does one get to
meet the big names in paper folding, but you get the chance to learn
many models that are new, some so new there are no diagrams.  On the
other hand there is a convention book usually around 300 pages of
Origami models from all over the world!  You get more variety from
simple to complex than any other publication!  There are models by Many
of the best designers in the world, and a truly great number of models!

They are available for sale from OUSA and they can be reached at their
web site!
hope this helps!

I have a photo of my frilled lizard at

model was folded on all fours. I folded another one in a more typical
posture, i.e. standing on its hindlegs, but the photo is not good enough
to be put on a webpage.

I hate to tell you, but a typical posture for a FLL is clinging onto a tree
- basically all you can see is the trunk and four bumps with claws on.

A happy lizard will not flare out its frill - so if you fold it with mouth
agape and frill out, it's a stressed lizard!  I can remember feeling quite
sick when the FLL was constantly filmed being chased by camera crews when it
was fashionable in Japan!

Let sleeping lizards lie!!

Many times - my most productive origami thoughts occur just before I doze
off (in that hazy semi-consciousness), where I can come up with ideas for
new models, or even sometimes solve that tricky fold (I finally understood
what a "closed-sink" was this way).

If I am not careful, I can keep myself awake by thinking about origami too
much, and have resorted to getting back up for a folding session to clear
my head and settle my "needy" fingers on occasion. These urges have often
produced some of my best folds.

When the muse calls, you gotta listen.

The holographic paper that is strictly mylar or

Neale dragon out of it and had to press it for about a
month to have it hold its shape, and even then it
would start to unfold after a while.

What Jane is referring to is paper-backed holographic
paper.  You can buy small packs of it as precut
origami squares or you can buy it as rolls of gift
wrap.  When buying the gift wrap, you have to be
careful and check that it doesn't say mylar or
plastic.  In our area right now, Carlton Cards,
Target, and Macy's have nice paper-backed holographic
paper in their Christmas areas or, in the case of
Carlton Cards and Target, their regular shelves.

Good idea!

I was looking at this calendar in detail in the past day, folding perhaps half
a dozen models from it. I wasn't using the calendar paper itself, so I can't
say if my calendar's paper is really square or not (I haven't measured it
either). I was rather disappointed that the instructions had problems. Nothing
that an experienced folder couldn't overcome, but for a rank beginner folding
by themselves... Well, I suppose my standards might be too high...

So in addition to putting the pamphlet on top, were I to give this to a
beginner, I would extend an offer of help if they got stuck (the models in
this calendar are simple, maybe low intermediate), which wouldn't be that hard
(so far, the bugs I've seen would be easy to fix over the phone or even in a
letter, horrors, even a handwritten USPS delivered letter! ;-) ).

illustrations from the Book of Kells and other notable Celtic works.  I

Tiffany,
I don't know of a home page that it is on,
but I can think of a neat horse that I
think you would have a great time making!
It's not difficult to fold.

The fun part about this horse is that is does flips,
and the object is to get it to land on it's
feet when you push up on it's tail.

If you are making lots of horses for your project, these stand on
their feet and can be glued that way. You don't have to flip them,
or they would look really good glued flat.

I know of one book where instructions are,
Simple Traditional Origami,
by Tomoko Fuse, Acrobatic horse, p. 49.
Your school or public librarian may be able to find it for you.
Good luck with your project, making horses sounds like fun!

I should have said it is an _EXCELLENT_ model. Square headed folders note that
it starts from a 2x1, which doesn't bother me in the slightest. I mention that
only because such high praise might raise someone's expectations, and if
you're the type to avoid non-square-starting-base models your expectations
might be disappointed, so hence this disclaimer. ;-)

Don't forget KOMATSU Hideo's flying kingfisher in a recent Tanteidan
Convention (4th, I think), Lionel Albertino's in his Origami Safari
book (l'Atelier, in French) and Eduardo Clemente's Martin Pescador
(the kingfisher sitting on a branch, from a single square), in
Papiroflexia (by Clemente, in Spanish).

Since kingfishers have _very_ distinctive features (long beak, large
head, round body and stubby tail), you can easily create a convincingly
model from either a fish base (not too bad, since that bird has very
short feet) or a bird base. Try it, three crimps for head/tail
and two squashes to thin the beak should do the trick!

I've not seen it, but based on the description, I'd hazard a guess that it's
"Barutan Seijin", the alien monster named "Barutan" or "Balten". It's one of
the enemies of "Ultranman", a Japanese superhero.

Hey -

I just got a copy of the Tanteidan 5th Convention book, and I was
*delighted* to see, on page 26, Hideo Komatsu's "Caterpillar"
model.  I feel the need to gush about this model in a public
forum like this, because I fear that the diagrams do not do
this wonderful action toy justice.  It may look too "boxy" for
a caterpillar, but the model contains multiple pleats along
the body which allow one to expand and contract the critter.
This has the effect of letting you work the model like a hand
puppet to make it "walk" in a very charming and realistic (ooo!)
way!

I highly recommend it!  I saw this model atthe 98 NYC convention,
which Komatsu-san attended.  Ron Weinstock and I only saw this model
briefly in Komatsu-san's collection, after which we had a great time
trying to reverse-engineer it from memory.  It's awesome to see
it officially diagrammed!

A photo of this particular can be found in one of the ORU magazines,

these mags, it is probably in either 12 or 15. Thankyou David for
providing identification to what I thought was just a swanky tesselation.
The article also included photos of other Momotani models that are worth

Another of those thread-generating questions :). Tough call, Collin. Each
Annual has at least 100 models of _every_ level of complexity,
diagram quality and style. I have favorites in every issue from 88 to 99,
but I can't call any whole issue a best one, since each has its ups and
lows. No matter who says "get the XX issue, it has the cool AA model",
someone will tell you "nah, YY is better, loot at the BB model". You'd better
first querying the Model Index, then asking about a particular model.

Could you give me the URL to Anibal Voyer's web page.  I really like the
horse and I would love to see more of his work.

Thanks

Actually, the diagrams for the rocking horse are in the '98 OUSA Annual
Collection. The diagrams are also on Albert Sng's webpage at
http://www.geocities.com/EnchantedForest/Palace/3457/index.htm.

I received a package from the Nippon Origami Association a few days back
which included a note informing me that the rocking horse, which was one
of the models I sent for their 11th World Origami Exhibition, won the
'Chairperson of the World Origami Exhibition' award. This is one of the
minor awards, which brought me a certificate, some origami paper and a
Burberry 3-in-1 pen.

Okay, I've finished blowing my little origami trumpet.

I also have that book, but this model is too difficult for me to fold
because of the chape and the size of the paper.
I will try another diagram =-)

It's not really a horse, but Ive got diagrams for a unicorn on my web page.
I suppose the horn can always be surgically excised and the tail trimmed :)

I did some web searching.  It is definately Barutan.  So that little guy
fighing the Lobster monster is Ultraman,  I thought it was a Roman
soldier.
