Synopsis

In this book, noted origamist Robert J. Lang has created 20 challenging designs depicting insects, spiders, and related creatures, long considered among the most challenging of origami subjects to design.
Among the projects are a treehopper, spotted ladybug, orb weaver, tarantula, tick, ant, butterfly, scarab beetle, cicada, grasshopper, dragonfly, pill bug, praying mantis, paper wasp, samurai helmet beetle, scorpion, and more. For each project, the author has supplied clear step-by-step instructions and diagrams. You'll also find helpful sections on symbols and terms as well as general folding directions.
