New Species? (Origaminis)

Postby Caela » Mon Feb 16, 2015 1:40 am

Whoops I meant to post in sketches haha. Mods, feel free to move this if you want!

I'm going to post a thread for these guys in adoptable oekaki soon! Boop! c:

Um but last night I stumbled upon a box of my old origami and thought I might make an origami based species. These guys are tiny little foxes with origami boxes/balloons for a tail, some of which contain a small light. I'm posting this to get a feel for whether or not people like this idea (so do tell me if you like it!)

Some info (subject to change):
  • The name Origamini is a combination of the terms 'origami' and 'miniature/mini' because they are mini origami foxes
  • They range from about 4 inches (at the shoulder) to roughly 6 inches (also at the shoulder, of course)
  • They each travel with a small origami companion
  • The can fit inside little origami boxes
    • They shrink into a small, seemingly lifeless origami fox when in their box
    • They can fit in their own box only! An Origamini cannot fit in the box of another Origamini
    • If an Origamini's box is destroyed, it and its companion die
I don't know what to think about these guys but I guess I like them...? Anyway, I'd love to know what you all think!

For real.

As others have said, original concept, really interesting ideas in the description! Looking forward to this sketch becoming an official adoptable!
