Starwars Origami

I'm pretty high on origami now, all thanks to the next installment in the Starwars saga.
I'll have to start way back in primary school, probably primary 4 (10 years old), it might be 3, I dunno. That was when I made my first X-wing. At that time, all I wanted was something that's got 4 wings and a fuselarge, I probably didn't know it as the fuselarge at that time, just the plane body. Unfortunately for me, I lost that version of the X-wing along with a huge chunk of how I made it, which sucks, it was cool and from that I made the Tydirium, which looks more like what it's supposed to look like, my old X-wing wasn't very X-wingy.

I would say it's around primary 5 (11 years old) when I first created the base of great number of my original plane creations. That base kicks so much ass for a simple reason, I made it. By base I actually mean the very first version of the plane I created. It evolved over time and I made a great deal of other shit from it. Off the top of my head, the "Independance Day Alien attacker ship", I have 2 versions of this. Then there's the Star Destroyer, my version is not like any of those found online when u google for starwars origami, it's not flimsy, hollow and easily crushed, it's the REAL thing. I'll get a picture of it up when I can.

Now on to the main thing, the X-wing. Actually I made a Tie Interceptor too but, unfortunately for me, I saw a lot of other more accurate versions of it online, more accurate and a hell lot easier to make, crap. So here it is, the X-wing. It's my 3rd version actually, my 2nd version was made yesterday and it kicks ass too but when I put it beside this one, it became shit so I decided it'll never be seen anymore.

I really need to get a Digicam, can you believe I don't have 1? ME! As in ME! I don't have one! That's like Anakin without his lightsabre!! I'll post nicer looking pics when I can. I tried to make them clearer but Gimp SUCKS and I'm too lazy to switch to Windows for 2 crappy pictures.

Me: Eh, are you good at origami?

Arthur: erm, not really, I only know how to make cranes. why?

Me: I ROCK at it!

Arthur: don't bluff. what did you make?

Eat that! Do not be mistaken, I really have nothing against this Arthur, it's just that I saw these few cranes on his table, he's a clerk by the way, made using coloured paper. He did put me on 3 week end duties in a row. hmmm.
