An Origami Army of the Past
In some very old German books I found the models of the historic rider and horse. More than one variation has been documented.
While folding the helmets and weapons for a
knight, I was inspired to create an origami cavalry. Here are the photos of hussars, ulans, dragoons, chevauxlegers and the general
staff. I folded a new head for rider and horse. Furthermore, I created a rider's arm,
some jackets, helmets, weapons and flags. This equipment is truly folded, not cut as
200 years before.
