Oriland Magic Star, action origami model, created from paper with no glue or cutting. Designed and folded by Yury Shumakov, one of the creators of Oriland. The star can be folded from one sheet, but this colourful edition is folded from 6 strips to create the kaleidoscopic effect while rotating.

The magic eyes looks like a pretty intense and rather refreshing design, although I enjoys the star's shape, finally seeing a good torus is pretty sweet. Is it exactly the same as the torus though? If not it would be nice if both were included in the same book due to the similarities. Also, how many 'rotations' will they go in a cycle, as the star utilizes 6 obviously.

@OmniasX Magic Eye and Magic Torus use different principles despite their visual similarity. The book is in work, so we will see how it goes.

Thanks for the replies, one of the reasons for the inquiry is that it seems a greater # module ring would allow for lesser tension, and would be useful for my foil origami packet is 10 colours, while I have 13 'preferred' colours in my multi-pack. Also, I used approx. 3in size paper for my first module (splitting paper into fourths) and found that the final connection of the 1st and 6th ring ended up in tearing in various places, due to the 1st flaps not wanting to invert or insert to 6's peaks

@OmniasX You are welcome! The stronger paper is advisable. To comprehend the model you may try colour copy paper. Good luck with folding Magic Stars!

Also, what is the limit for how many can compose a ring, ie: 5, 6, to say 12 or 13; in otherwords what is effective and practical, and how many max patterns can you use in one, so can you use say 10 different rings in one or is the 6 rings pretty solid?

@OmniasX We do have another action model we are planning to publish one day (the diagrams are in work now), it called Magic Eye, you may see it in Decoration Gallery, under Various (2nd hall) at Oriland site. So this Magic Eye also rotates and has more colours and more dense structure. Happy folding!

:O !



[bubblez123ana]

That is Really cool and creative :)

@OmniasX For this particular model, it's optimal to have 6 ring-modules, considering the angle with which the modules attached one to another... When folding the star from squares you may have as much as 48 colours involved.

@OmniasX The other direction of rotations works fine too! When you fold the star, you will know that. By the way, starting from 2 minute in this video, there is shown rotation from the back side too. Meanwhile, good luck with your first magic star! Happy folding!
