This is genuinely incredible. Luca Iaconi-Stewart may just be the world's greatest paper-airplane-maker. Seriously – this guy's work makes your crease-and-fold creations look like utter child's play.

I can't even properly fold a piece of paper to fit in an envelope.

Awesome! Thank goodness he didn't try to do one of Air Canada's new High Density 777s, he'd have to do an extra 109 seats!

That amount of effort and the steady attention to detail is truly amazing. I can't imagine how much time he put into that. Of course this comes from a guy who's childhood model building "capabilities" were captured exactly by this....

I really appreciate your tremendous effort plus it makes sense that if we try to make something out if trash, waste, or anything we can make it,, if we desire to make it :)
