Book Reviews of Prehistoric Origami: Dinosaurs and Other Creatures
Book Review: Lots of great dinosaurs to fold
Summary: 4 Stars
Can you even call yourself an advanced origamiist if you haven't folded John's Steg? Well, maybe, but you should get this book and try it anyway. I like making it with metallic paper...a bit harder to fold that way, but the end result is great! Most of the other models aren't nearly as hard, but still not for beginners. Like all of John's books, they work their way up from a few very easy ones, to the much harder ones at the end. As always John's diagrams are very well done, sharp and easy to read and usually not too difficult to get from step-to-step. His skill at diagramming his models is one reason his books always rate so well. I did find a few minor mistakes but nothing that should trip you up too much if you have folded other advanced models before. I'm not a dinosaur expert by any means, but I did also like the range of types of dinosaurs he included, and of course you'll find most of the really "popular" ones like Tyrannosaur and Triceratops. This is definitely a books that will appeal equally as well to dinosaur fans as well as origami enthusiasts.
