Book Reviews of Famous Aircraft in Origami: 18 Realistic Models
Book Review: Some good models for the advanded folder
Summary: 4 Stars
Instructions are clear and well printed, with very few mistakes which do not distract from the overall quality of the book and the models. Full colour photos of actual completed models are included for additional guidance as well as sizing ratio to give an idea of how large/small the final model will be compared to the initial paper size. All but one of the models (Airbus 320) are folded from a single piece of square paper. I found a couple of the models looked a bit odd (and it wasn't just me as the book's photos show them, such as the autogyros, equally unusual), and very difficult to hold their form due to many layers of paper, but there are some excellent models here (notably, Messershmitt Bf109).
Certain 'standard' steps such as forming wheels at the end of landing gear struts are omitted and this makes the book aimed at the more advanced/experienced folder.
There are some great techniques here, to produce the multiple sets of propellers for example, that you can use in your own designs. Overall, a very good addition to the origami book catalogue. Recommended.
