I did extensive origami back in my middle school days. No cutting western rules. The hardcore origami.

I also liked the various origami polyhedral books by Tomoko Fuse.

I do non-cutting origami on a semi-regular basis. Incredible way of scoring with the ladies, believe it or not. :P

Give me some measurements and I can easily make them in AutoCAD for printing. I need the measurements of each face.

Should be interesting for some people here.

If you bought the limited edition standard DVD or Blu-Ray set of Blade Runner with the Voight-Kampf suitcase bundled packaged set, you already get such a foil unicorn origami replica as a bonus. And it even comes with a kick-ass die-cast metal replica "Spinner" vehicle/hovercraft hybrid. All those extra goodies weren't included with the standard DVD or standard Blu-Ray BR sets anyways. ^_~

I know that there are some neat programs that attepmt to unravel 3d shapes. I thin it may just be a matter of making simple things in 3d and then using a program to unfold them and you add tabs.
