Origami butterfly wings dragon, designed and folded by me. One uncut square of double tissue paper, black on one side and golden green on the other.
More details below:
I've loved dragons for a long time and especially in origami form. Had always wanted to create my own but didn't entirely know where to start. I realized I could created a dragon with what I knew of box pleating and still achieve some decently dramatic color changes. A lot of this model is in the shaping but I made a point of documenting my process with photos once I collapsed the base. Starting paper and base below:
