I Find This Incredible,

the knight stands 18 centimetres tall,


and what I find incredible is that it was made from just one sheet of 68 x 68-centimeter Wenzhou rice paper! photograph © Juho Könkkölä, the Finnish artist Juho Könkkölä took 41 hours of work using wet and dry origami techniques, “One of the greatest challenges in this figure was the stark contrast between the shield and the sword; the sword has over 50(!) layers inside the palm of the figure, whereas the shield has only one layer on a large surface,” he writes on Instagram,

Könkkölä also filmed his entire process, so you can watch the knight take shape in the time lapse video above, the video is a tad long defiantly a 2 coffee mug watch.
