>>627133 Hey op, just Wanted to say thanks, I'm new to origami my self, and was a bit stuck on what to make also and seeing your lotus flower made me want to try making it.
Kawasaki roses are very cool. Theres a few variations, once you do one or 2 you will prob have ideas for tweaks. You can find instructions easily, but just read a few till you find ones tgat make sense to you. Good luck.
>>627133 Personal opinion. But roses usually look more impressive. There's a bunch of instructions on youtube. Jo Nakashima on youtube has the best origami instructions imo. Most of the other youtube grifters are lazy.
>>628058 I try to avoid using glue. Because some pieces will have plot twists in them where halfway through they spin or expand and completely change. I use clothes pins or paper clips when I just can't get it to hold together
