Origami Models and where to find them

Below, you see a list of models of eight of the origami books I own.

At the Origami archive of the University of Groningen, there is a much more complete list, and thus this list is further discontinued.

Difficulty classification

! Easy
!! Intermediate
!!! Complicated
!!!! Very complicated
!!!!! Almost impossible

In some cases, I copied the classification from the book; in other cases, I made it up myself: email me if you disagree. In some cases, it was some time ago I made the model myself, and I hope I remember those complexities right. In many cases, the classification is rather arbitrary, and may be slightly wrong. Please email me possible corrections.

Written by: Hans Bodlaender. Thanks to Chris McClure for sending me the list for the `Mythological Creatures book', which I haven't finished adding all info here (and won't do so anymore as I stopped maintaining this page.)
