Yin Yang - Eclipse
Originally uploaded by Bharath Kishore

I wanted to do a piece of work composed of either the sun or the moon or both. After considering various other arrangements, I finally settled on the Yin and Yang posture.

I first thought of using a crescent for the moon but the Wolf Moon blog post on flickr made me do the full moon instead.

I've started this months ago. Finished sketches and cuts but never felt like folding it up. For some reason I've felt like working on it again.

As much as WIP implies, there's more to it than that's been done.

Similar to my earlier twisted colors; I happened to find that the structure is collapsible. The first thing that popped into my head was... hmm... A pop-up...

All I need is a way to add flowers

Similar to this one, now the I attacked the square twist tess too...

The beauty is that even though this is just a kirigamic representation, the layering and alignment is still the same as the original origami square twist

I've tried Ronald Koh's cobra once and utterly failed. I've got the bust right but I screwed up the skin part. I didn't have enough patience to do all the skin...
Well, that doesn't stop me from making a cobra of my own. If not origami, there's kirigami!! I think I can add a texture here too.... Sleepy and sloppy now... I'll sure try it later.

This is a card I made for my best friend, Pranava Teja, on his birthday.
The pop-up is in the shape of the hostel building in my college and there's a good enough reason to include this in the card.
One day, during the night, me and my friends were roaming the roof of the building. Then I suddenly wanted to feel what is like standing on the railing of the 40ft high building. So I did it straight away. If you look close in the picture, You can see a little person standing on the top of the structure. I wanted to dedicate the event to him. So the event is in his hands right now.
For a true picture of the hostel building, click here.

Sliceform - sphere

Sliceform - sphere, completed
Originally uploaded by bharathkishore2002

The name should explain it. For the beginners, a sliceform is a shape formed by the sections of a given 3D figure.
Here, the sliceform is a sphere, whose sections are circles. The model roughly 10cm in diameter.

This found place here in this blog because it is completely collapsible! What more do we need to put it inside a card!??! What you can have more is something inside the ball... It can be hung, fixed, made to rotate about some axis... you can say Personalised to your requirement and your need....

It's october 24th, my dad's birthday. Keeping in mind my dad's philatelic interests, I made the edges like that of a postage stamp. The steps signify the crossing the limits and reaching new heights. There's a quote - "Carry your childhood with you, and you'll never become older."

Harry's B'day

2007-12-07T06:40:00.001-08:00

This is the card I made for Harish on his b'day. This is in the shape of a race-car, as he is very much interested in motor cars and stuff.
This was a challenge he madefor me. He demanded the following things to be in his b'day card:
->5 patterns
->2 pyramids
->The car in the shape of a pyramid.

There are 5 tessellation patterns, 2 stepped pyramids( one inside the other), and the shape of the car can be clearly seen.
