 Rules :
1. Any type of paper can be used.

2. Participants are allowed to paint and glue models if it

would not prevent identification of all elements of the
model ( including pre-creased lines defining the
assembly process). This rule does not apply to the
participants own design.

3. Only photos never published before the olympiad are

allowed.

4. Each model should be photographed from at least three

angles to clearly display all the details. Low quality
photos will not be considered, but total size of the
resulting message should not exceed 10 Mb.
Recommended size of pictures is from 640x640 to
1500x1500 pixels.

5. Minimal editing of the pictures is allowed as long as it

doesn't affect the appearance of the model. E.g. you can
crop photos, reduce the noise, change color balance
but you must not add, erase or change any details.

6. Participants should not upload photos of their models

to the Internet before the end of the Olympiad.

7. Send your results before 15.11.2015 to

 Task 12
Space Sweet Space
Maximum score: 15 points

In this task we propose you to create

your own model.
The topic is very broad which allows
you to demonstrate your folding and
designing skills.

You can choose any subject you want

if it matches the topic. It can be just starships, astronauts or planet
rovers, any space objects and even the ufo, extraterrestrial e.t.c.
The model can be created in any style, technique and complexity level.
But there still are a few basic rules:

- one convex polygon sheet of paper (e.g. square, rectangle, triangle,

pentagon, hexagon, etc.);

- any color, size, type of paper, etc.

- you can use MC+paper, foil-paper, wet-folding as well;

- no cuts, no glue;

- no painting or varnishing of the finished model (you still can paint the
paper before you start folding);

- minimal editing of the pictures is allowed as long as it doesn't affect

the appearance of the model. E.g. you can crop photos, reduce the noise,
change color balance but you must not add, erase or change any details;

- you can make a composition photo with as many different models as

you like, but only one of them will be judged (you must specify which
one is it);

- you must include CP or other information about your model (so jury
can see that the rules are observed).
