Paper dolls are big in Chinese and Japanese culture, this little charmer is a two-piece model from Jacky Chan:
Head and body are folded separately from the same size bits of paper and then the head neatly slots into the shoulders of the body.
When folding this I started with the head and was convinced that the body square would never be big enough to make something that worked with the head but it worked out fine.
Lovely traditional headdress, robes, proportions and self-standing. Happy with this first fold, I can see how you would pose this little guy in other positions, bling it up with fans and walking stick etc.
Jacky Chan? Is he the same guy from the movies?
lol, no, he is a talented Origamist and designer from Singapore I think
