This has taken me a while. And it’s very, very, VERY rough around the edges. But, it’s the first time I’ve finished him. The first time I’ve crossed the hundred folding instructions mark, and the first time I’ve folded something (badly) that has been classed as complex. So in spite of his, lets call it character I’ve impossibly happy as I folded him, and he’s my Buddha fold, and nothing can that away from me.
Still, I’ll be having another go in a few weeks.
Still, very, very happy.
And here’s the rest:

Absolutely lovely!!!
Thank you for the comment.
It does need a lot of work though. Hopefully this weekend.
Uber groovy, and I love how in folding the Buddha you I am sure came to understand DharmaKaya better. Peace.
Thank you for the comment.
Should mention this was like my eighth attempt. At times I wanted to kill it. Sometimes paper don’t fold like is supposed to. It’s good for developing patience and understanding.
This is very cool. And this is a complex one too. 🙂
I can’t remember the last time I played at folding paper. I think I might try something simple maybe this weekend.
Thank for the comment.
Do it. Loads and loads, and loads of fun.
Absolutely incredible.
Thank you for the comment.
Still got a ways to go though. But I’ll get there. Some day,
Wow! Incredibly complex! Congrats.
Truthfully there’s more complex stuff out there. Like this (and yes, it’s all folding): http://www.giladorigami.com/File.php?File=P_BOS2007_EXN_Kamiya_Ryujin.JPG
But yeah, this guy is a difficult fold. Felt real good to get him that far.
Me thinks a Buddha must have character, if he is to reach enlightenment he must go through trials and tribulations.
Given all the versions and folds I went though I can definitely see that. And I was just folding paper.
