Description Right now, there's a project called "1000 deviants, 1000 cranes." You can read more here: [link]

I knew the tale about 1000 paper cranes and how you could make a wish for them already, and I once made 1000 cranes myself. This is the final one.

This is a very beautiful crane picture by =moth-owl , which was also made for the project. Have a look:

Thank you! During my project, I've also tried making tiny ones, but wasn't very successful

definitely helps to have tissue paper, but also that thin recycled origami paper works wonders, too

This is amazing!

I really like the paper you've used... and I think it's fantastic how you've managed to capture some shadow as well, as that adds further depth to the piece and all. The colours contrast in an effective way and... yeah, it looks very sparkly and original in its appearance.

Great stuff.

Thank you very much for the detailed feedback! I'm usually not that much into sparkling things, but for the 1000th crane, I wanted to do something special

ooh, gorgeous! I've never seen paper of the sort you used for origami, is it good to use?
Thank you for linking my piece

as-red-as-fire In reply to moth-owl [2011-02-12 18:52:37 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! It's paper with different colors of hologram foil sticked on it, and actually it's not very good for origami, just because it isn't flexible enough... but it's glittery, so I wanted to use it anyway
You're welcome
