Last Saturday, I bought new origami book.
The title is "Works of Satoshi KAMIYA 2".
"Works of Satoshi KAMIYA 1" was very very difficult.
What about Part2 ?

Today, I tried Minotaur.Minotaur(Wikipedia)

Uh...,difficult!
It looks like hands part is difficult.
But, the most difficult part is bull's head.
I used a 30cm*30cm paper and the head became small.
Then, the head was difficult.I took a picture with care as you can not look bad part.

This is my easy studio.
I just pasted black paper in a corrugated carton.

Minotaur is small, isn't it?

Wood? or Paper?

Is this object made of wood?
The answer is yes and no.
This is Origami, but the paper was pasted wood that is very very very thin. I fold it Yesterday too.(Woody Master Yoda)

Yesterday, I used only one sheet.
Todya, I folded thirty sheets.
So this object made from thirty origami parts.
I took three hours to finish.
