The Elias base is a great one for figures:
This delightful downhill skier is a fine example – I like the posture, the arm positions, it looks like he is on motion. Folded from “More Origami” by Robert Harbin, another application of the Elias base. A fairly simple fold for a hectic afternoon/night, hope you like it.
You’re right, the Elias Figure Base is a very good one for figures.
I like this model. Nicely folded.
do you have the instructions?
I have the book they are from yes, but not in a digital form. There are a number of places the diagrams have appeared – check here http://www.giladorigami.com/origami-Sport-2
I’ve been looking high and low for directions for this or the Elias base and I keep coming up short. Could you share with us how you did it? Im not asking you to copy the book’s images or wording and violate copyright; just desperately looking for some helpful directions.
there is a link now that might help
