A turning point in origami, at least for me. A fantastic book for a skilled enthusiast. My favorite origami author.

This is the best model for a horse that I've ever encountered. It's complicated but not, once figured out, particularly difficult, and the results are stunning.

Because many of the models in this book use the same base forms, all of my time spent working on the horse model netted me a number of nice dog models as well, including a great dachshund.
