This model can represent both wild-type (brown) and the more familiar albino (white and red) axolotl morphs with slight variations in the folding process, both of which will be included in the class.

This model does involve some complicated techniques, like unwrapping and box pleating, but only at a very simple level, and should be accessible for even relatively inexperienced folders so long as they're careful. They may have difficulty with some optional steps at the end, such as the color-change for the gills and some shaping.

Advisories
  • Standard 6" kami is perfectly acceptable for this model, but less experienced folders or those who want to add more details in shaping may prefer a larger size.
