10 origami of aquatic animals folded with 1 dollar bills
I bet you've never realized how many things you can do with one dollar bill! .... if you are a origamist of course.
Inside the big world of Origami, the traditional Japanese art of paper folding whose goal is to create a representation of an object using geometric folds and crease patterns without the use of gluing or cutting the paper, and using only one piece of paper, there is a sort of niche for those who specialized in folding one dollar bills!
The amazing Origami you can see in this post have been realized by *orudorumagi11 a skilled origamist who has realized lots of incredible creations with 1 or 2 dollars bills. I'm going to show you his amazing aquatic animals. Visit his DeviantArt gallery to see other dollar origami like his amazing series of starships from Star Wars and Star Trek.
THE KOI
realized by *orudorumagi11
The Koi, the famous japanese ornamental carp is ome ot th favourite subjects of the origamists. Take a look to how the author took advantage of the draw on the bill to perfectly simulate the eyes of the Koi... so smart... isn't it?

Ok this last one is not an aquatic animal but it's still water related... and shows how creative and imaginative can be the origamists in their endless search for new subjects..
