Alaskan King Crab

This is another design that was inspired by a Discovery Channel show - this time it was The Deadliest Catch. The distinguishing characteristic of this model, compared to other crab models out there, is that it only has six legs. Most origami crabs, like most real crabs, have eight legs.

Design date: September, 2007

Paper used: A single un-cut square of mulberry tissue paper treated with methyl cellulose.

Base Crease Pattern
