27 Spectacular Western-Style Origami Dragons

Dragons are some of my favourite things that people make out of paper and
we recently did a post dedicated to Eastern-style origami dragons so
it’s time to do a round-up of some incredible looking Western-style dragons.

When we talk about Western-style dragons we’re talking about the sorts
of dragons that you see out of European myths and stories, the types of
dragons that you usually think of when you think of medieval fantasy settings.

First up is this great traditional looking dragon designed by Tetsuya Gotani.

Here is another great traditional sort of fantasy dragon design by Sergey Yartsev.
