Koh's "Blackmoor Goldfish"
What: Blackmoor Goldfish
By: Ronald Koh
From: Origami Goldfish
Why: Ron's published a book of really wonderful goldfish designs through OrigamiUSA. I thought it would be fun to teach one of them at the 2003 convention, so I was practicing.
It's a complex model, and takes several hours to do well. It's fantastically detailed, and has some very clever folds that create the volume of paper needed for the bubble eyes and many decorative fins on this fish.
