This is not a new design, but I've added the five claws (colour-changed) to each foot of this model, but havent folded it yet. Think I will have to do it from foil to hide the black layers of the model better. If it comes out good I will post it.
Awesome! I wanted to fold this one a few weeks ago, but got scared a little when I saw the CP. But the result you got out of it just might give me enough courage to get into it. And just out of curiousity; what kind of paper is it?
Also a really bad photo of our national animal, the Springbok. Folded really badly as well, but I will update it as soon as I get better paper. This was designed on Saturday for the upcoming Rugby World Cup! Go Bokke!!!!!!

from 34x34 elephant hide paper (of course)
When I saw Dave Brill's flickr gallery I just had to try this one. As said in the book it really is closed from every single angle, that is if you've done it correctly (it took me three tries...).
Hi Tripia. Interesting name...
Thank you for the compliment!
This Black bear uses the same base as the polar bear. I wanted to fold a grizzly bear and thus add the claws. When the claws were added, it still didnt have an aggressive enough look, so that's why its the Black bear now. I'm gonna still experiment a bit with it to see if I can add some facial features, and then diagram it. So sorry, no diagrams just yet.
