Weekly Progress Report: 2012-01-16

Hola fellas!

Challenge #6: Straddle Press to Handstand

Since last week, most of my physical training was turned away from my main goals. Thus I made progress, but nothing worth showing up here. In the meantime I will let my body rest more than usual and do stuff that is different for a bit.

Keep ya posted!

Challenge #11: Origami!

Add that to the fact that I currently got no imagination for new PicLetters, this progress report was not bound to go very well. No matter, I say! Let us start something else!

After all, I DO have a friggin’ THOUSAND pieces of paper to fold up and string together.

Before I can do 1000 of them, I had to learn to make one first. The first one. Yeah. Typically the very one that looks the most awful while taking you the most amount of time to complete.

Took me more than an hour. I wonder if it was 2.

 

 

 

 

Oops. A rip.

 

It wasn’t too bad, but some parts proved a bit challenging to understand. I had to go through 3 different tutorials for this origami to understand it completely.

The most “complex” part was this one. The first tutorial pictures I saw didn’t make it very clear how I could produce that central diamond from the original square-shaped flap.

 

 

 

 

 

The  most difficult part was trying to take it seriously. Maybe I shouldn’t. After all,

IT’S A PAPER CRANE.
