Phil Kuhns Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I recently did a re-fold of my D.T. design. This time around, I think the model looks much more like the real beetle! Dynastes Tityus was folded from a single, un-cut square of paper colored yellow on one side and black on the other. What'ya think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regiarbol Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Once again, very amazing. Last time you posted, I tried making one myself but gave up within seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Kuhns Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Once again, very amazing. Last time you posted, I tried making one myself but gave up within seconds. Thankyou! Wow! Kudos to you for trying! But yeah if you are not already an accomplished paper folder, its absolutely impossible to make. However, I dont think it would be beyond you to try ur hand at making a very simple beetle. If ur interested, here's a like to instructions for a basic beetle: origami hercules beetle diagrams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you have found a way for your skill and artistic ability to bring you some happiness and/or money. I had to do a double take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
