One kei has beaten one Wol, but one Wol don't have elephant hide so she can be sure she will manage this pattern when having elephant hide well baking paper isn't apriopriate to soe creations from this book

Very well done work I really lik it

Aww, but Kei thinks it *should* be manageable with just baking paper, since it doesn't involve 3D stuff or anything... XD Just fiddly-fiddly-fiddly, maybe it would be easier with thinner paper

Thankies ^____^

well some creations needs more creases, and baking paper sometimes can't manage holding still those creases made before

One Kei is beating the old doc in origami already...
In a couple of years, I will bow before you and I will call you master.
Gorgeous and complicated work.

The doc only has tried to fold one tessel in his life, and you have it.
What is one KOHAI?

You don't know what it is and I had a whole conversation with woldoc about it?!

Wiki is the easiest solution.

Sensei, sempai, kohai.
I disagree, you are not more a Kohai. You are growing too fast.
And, Kei, the easiest solution was to ask you.
(hugs one Kei)

Asking Kei is NEVER the easiest solution.

But kohai is still the littlest, the youngest... so THERE
