Legoami - Crane

Another of my hobbies is origami, the Japanese art of folding paper. I recently thought that it might be fun to try and recreate some origami models with Legos. I have decided to call these creations Legoami.

Here is what I consider the classic origami model, the crane.


Started off by folding an origami crane.


Discovered that the crane's body is close in size to a 4x4 plate.


Some pieces on top of a wing to get a close approximation.


The main pieces all laid out.


Finished Lego origami model.


A comparison between the Lego and origami crane models.
