Beautiful! Would love to see a How-To.
Thanks. Will wait on Cory who is checking with the artist who originally came up with idea
Awesome work! Yours looks way more beautiful than I've ever made! You made the folds really really crisp.
Hey, this looks great, you must be pleased with it. I had a look on Richard Sweeney site, quite amazing work. This is all new to me. I was wondering if you had any luck with the permission to do a how-to. I'd love to have a crack at it.
