In this landmark origami book, Japanese expert Hisao Fukui shows you how to create incredibly detailed and realistic aquatic models — including a giant squid, a prehistoric undersea dinosaur and even a massive blue whale calf!

The step-by-step folding instructions and photos in the book present 20 amazingly lifelike models from intermediate to complex in terms of difficulty.

The 20 projects in this book include the following models:
  • The Penguin — A colour-change model capturing the awkward and slightly comical appearance of these flightless aquatic birds
  • The Polar Bear — A menacing hunter who hungrily stalks your desk or bookshelf
  • The Crocodile — A lurking predator which is ideal for showcasing handmade papers
  • The Manta Ray — A graceful and gentle filter feeder whose sweeping wings give you the opportunity to create a truly expressive paper sculpture
  • And many more!
