Overall Impression

The models in this book are not the same level of detail and complexity
as in Kawahata's Origami Fantasy, but they're nice representations nevertheless, and have some dino-species not found elsewhere.
The best model in the book is the Brachiosaurus skeleton - a 45 piece
project. Too bad that the squares required for it are not all the same size...
