Best Komodo Dragon (plus other animals)
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I have several books by Duy Nguyen and this one has the best designs. The animals are mustly bugs and arachnids but there are also a Komodo dragon and a gecko for example.The designs are pleasing to the eye (the Komodo dragon is my favorite) but most are not for people who have anything against cutting the paper. Some use more than one piece. I don't have a real problem with this.The only real problem I have is that some of the insects (i.e. praying mantis) have eight legs instead of six. It is common in origami to simplify an animal by reducing the number of legs. This is the first time I have encountered designs where there are too many legs.Still, as long as no one is counting, they are very nice designs and easy for children to do.
