An Origami dragon folded from a design by Duy Nguyen.

This particular one was folded as a small birthday gift for a friend.

Is there anything you can't do? ;) It's beautifully done, and I love the paper. Gorgeous origami paper is one of small pleasures of life.

(And here ends my spamming of your inbox for now, lol.)

I can't take much credit beyound following instructions here. Besides this being a pretty simple fold too. It's been a while since I got back into origami, but I'm returning to it with gusto. I've been practising folding a number of things, like this, this, this and this.

Oh, and speaking of beautiful paper...

The bunny is absolutely precious! I think well-folded origami of any intricacy is pretty rare. I know all my cranes turn out rather lop-sided, lol.

It goes without saying that I'm entirely envious of your origami paper collection. ;)

Nice job.. but that doesn't look like it was made from an uncut square :x

I don't personally find the author impressive; as an origami artist, it kills me a little when I see scissors in a folding sequence >.<

The instructions do indeed involve some cutting. I know well about how cutting is frowned upon in origami. For my part, I enjoy the challenge of folding something that is entirely uncut and have unending admiration and reverence for the originators of those designs. But as someone who doesn't yet have the skill to develop my own original origami creations, I can still respect those who do employ a little cutting and am not about to disdain the method. :D Nguyen defends the use of scissors and cites Michio Uchiyama in this article. ^_^
