62/100: in japan, "kaeru" means "frog" & "back home" (correct me if i'm wrong), so fishermen's wives, i've been told, used to fold frogs to protect their husband when they were at sea.
This model, designed by Toshikazu Kawasaki (demonstrated here by Yakomoga Origami here youtu.be/vKf26ZApmzs ) is more modern but can do some amazing jumps. Once again, hours of fun.

61/100: a little bird.
Designed by Jérémy Shafer (aka the mad genius of ;) according to me, myself and i :)) it moves its beak by a simple pression of your fingers.
Not too hard to fold, hours of fun for kids.
Cui cui. Cui cui.

60/100: any masto artist in need of some blue paint😉?
a fairly easy model to fold, designed by (a french origamist) Guillaume Denis.
Fairly easy, but be cautious because metallic paper is very fragile.😉

59/100: an organ with its partition.
No need to know how to.play the piano to fold this beautiful model designed by Sumiko Momotani.

58/100: message in a bottle.
Designed by Sy Chen, an i really like despite its simplicity.
But don't be as daft as me and don't take a paper too thin, or spies will be able to read your message through the paper.
want to read mine? well, find the way to it 😉

57/100: a money bunny, designed & demonstrated by the, as usual, fantastic Jo Nakashima (i'll soon run out of praise words 😉). Here~~~>youtu.be/8ft7cpKeSTo
why money bunny? because you can fold it with a $1 bill, not with the usual square piece of paper.

56/100: my wife and i freaked out when we discovered this creepy crawler crawling around 😉
A traditional (demonstrated here youtu.be/Zx7AMKjVXd0 by Sara Adams) which is made with 2 sheets of paper.

55/100: batmaaaan....
Well, his batarang in fact.
Designed by Jeremy Shafer, a person i personnaly see as an OVNI in the world.
He's also, in my opinion, THE origamist to know if you got kids
Here for this model: youtu.be/849pI8rKVhE
Have fun batmen & batgirls!

54/100: a toucan.
Designed by John Montroll.
No big difficulties for this , but difficulty and beauty are not linked concepts in the paper folding world😉

53/100: a biplane
Designed by Yukihiko Matsuno this aircraft is an example of multiorigami.
Like modular origami, multiorigami are made with more than one piece of paper; unlike it, modules are all different and you build it like a puzzle.

52/100: ladies & gentlemen, please fasten your seatbelts and turn off any electronic device.
Our flight will last the time it takes pour captain (youtu.be/JQoI9_p8cHc ) to fold this plane.

51/100: since i began this little challenge, i used YouTube more than i've ever done in my life (and that's a true fact! 😁), so i decided to pay it a little tribute.
As usual, thanks to the always excellent Jo Nakashima (check his youtube channel).

50/100: a palm tree.
Designed by Christophe Boudias it will be a nice background for other origamis.
As it is quite easy to fold, fold many and you'll get a good looking forest.

49/100: look who's come around to visit 😁
An owl designed by Nguyen Hung Cuong (tutorial by guess who? Jo Nakashima of course, on youtube).
I was told it is an intermediate difficulty, i daresay it's a bit more difficult than that (quite a lot of pre-creases😓 and at some point you're not folding paper anymore but sculpting it).

48/100 : a unicorn.
Designed & shown by Jo Nakashima ~> youtu.be/QVSgrAl3CyU
Go & see his youtube channel! Now!😉
A thin piece of paper will be needed, but at the end of the day (or earlier if you are a well trained origamist) your beloved one will say it's the best model you done so far 😉

47/100: well...i guess that all techies around already know this little lad.
Designed by Gerwin Sturm and brilliantly shown here: youtu.be/gA4TkIes7Q0 by the, as always excellent Jo Nakashima.
My advice? train beforehand, it's kinda difficult one, and prefer a thin paper as there is many layers.

46/100: a plesiosaurus.
Designed by Sergio Gonzalès, it could also be called Nessie.
octodon.social/media/7F1DQqv6O


45/100: another koi fish, also designed by Riccardo Foschi.
"Slightly" harder to fold than yesterday's, and a bit more realistic, but as beautiful & graceful.
