2004 Design Challenge

The original design competition was for a Eupatorus gracilicornis beetle, which makes a good subject for origami because of its large number of hornlike protrusions. (See here for some examples of the real thing.)

Although 3 of us originally agreed to take on this subject, Daniel Robinson was otherwise occupied, so only Satoshi Kamiya and I came up with entries, both of which you can see here.
