Origami baby buggy

Tutorial by @lavenderhomelondon

Made from singlesheet of paper.

This was really a challenging model. There were serval tricky steps that I took time to analyze and then carefully fold. I was careful that the paper doesn't tear while trying to get the folds. I stumbled at a couple of places but finally was able to get it right. However I got the last step wrong but I wasn't ready to try to correct it because it might have sabotaged the whole model in the last few steps. So i left it as is, still getting a decent looking model.

Photography wise also it was very challenging model. I might've taken 50 photos to get one appealing photo. I tried in different angles, different lights, different sides. However it didn't serve the justice to the beauty of the model. Finally after quite sometime I got something nice.

Until next time,

Garuda Nakshatra

From his book Stellar Origami Nakshatras volume 1

I used 8 inch sheets here. Both sides same color. I know it's a bit big for mandala. The suggested size was 6 inch. But the curve wouldn't be uniform in all the units. I tried serval efforts but the curves wouldn't be uniform. Hence I tried with a bigger paper.
