Honestly, it's one of the models that I've had the most trouble envisioning first - I usually have a rather good picture of the result I want to achieve before I get started (apart from some doodles, which just happen) but besides the hat and hand, I couldn't visualise this monk for a little while.<br /><br />In the end, I got rather lucky with the apparent movement of this model, it's what I had in mind, but I was quite uncertain about how to make it happen. I'm very very far from the level of creations of Giang Dinh, but one can try :-)gachepapierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07039101730219599975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5705285204689718581.post-74115012001497967562011-05-18T18:00:42.795+02:002011-05-18T18:00:42.795+02:00A lot of time, I find myself enjoying (the look an...A lot of time, I find myself enjoying (the look and style, rather than the actual folding) the more simplistic and minimalist models.<br />Confining yourself to a dozen or so folds means that you have to create a model which is much more expressive. Almost a caricature of the subject. Which often leads to a model with real character, which can be lost when a model is burdened with an abundance of creases.<br /><br />This model, along with a few other recent ones, remind me of Giang Dinh's models; elegant in their simplicity and full of character.<br />The asymmetry of this one adds another dimension to the model, too.Benhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/falcifer/sets/72157622609324583/noreply@blogger.com
