Origami | The Art of Paper Folding

Hey all!

Today I finally had time and an occasion to fold something - it's a present for a friend whose absolute favourite animals are lions. I used the following instruction video from Madiyar Amerkeshev's YouTube channel (I couldn't find any diagrams, though):

The size of the paper I used (20x20 cm) resulted in a lion which is roughly 14 cm long and 6 cm high. It took me a few tries to get the right proportions especially of the chin and face - what you see here is my third attempt. I also took some liberties in shaping the lions back and repositioning one of the front leg to give the lion a more dynamic pose than shown in the video (the thumbnail shows another way to pose the front leg).

Other videos on this channel look promising as well, so the chances of me folding something else from Madiyar Amerkeshev in the future are quite high :)

Also please ignore the wrinkly fabric of my sofa lol

Origami, etwas, das ich schon länger ausprobieren wollte. Gibt es Tipps, wo ich als Beginner anfangen kann? Habt ihr Beispiele für eure Origamifertigkeiten? Was ist das schwierigste, das ihr schon gefaltet habt?
