Description Finally got better at it! 3rd attempt.
I have learned:
1) use methyl cellulose
2) keep a little length in my fingernails- they are tools
3) I need to wear reading glasses
such tiny klittle folds for the scales.
Kudos to Won Park for this design!!

The first one I did... I used plain paper. The size is 2.61inches wide by 6.14 inches long. I hope that helps!

Fold, fold again, repeat!

Thank you very much. It takes me about 2 1/2 hours to make. It's one of the hardest things I've folded. Glad you like it.

You're very welcome!
I can't even imagine! I've tried only a few dollar folds before, but certainly nothing this difficult.

Me too! This is the first hard one I tried. It took me 3 attempts to get to this point. I guess that roughly 7 1/2 hours. Sheesh... when I think about that- it's quite a long tome spent on a tiny fish that just sits there looking at me with it's swirly eyes. (haha)

Yes... I check his page occasionally. The 2$ race car he recently came up with is extraordinary! He is truly a modern master.

Thank you. After I discovered methyl cellulose (to treat the paper with first) for this model.. it went much better!
