The orange origami paper I used for the goldfish above was thin and as I folded the paper back, you can see that it wrinkled quite a bit.
I went back to the samurai helmet I made where the paper was slightly thicker and held up better. I made the same folds to get the goldfish and it looks much better. No wrinkles! I think a slightly thicker origami paper is better for this project.
