The pig looks cute! Like the nose and the face, very expressive. Oh man, I suddenly realise that the pig that I designed does not look like a pig!

Does it look like a bear? Sometimes pigs end up looking like bears.
However it looks, just call it that instead of pig and claim that was your plan all along :lol:

If only it looked like a bear. Firstly I thought boars had color changes, then I realised they had none. And I designed it due to color changes! THe head ended up too big and elongated, like Kamiya's you could say.

Anyway, nice dragonfly, ted385.
The tesselation looks pretty, Flaregloom, is it a infinite piece, if so, why don't do the pattern a few more times?

I'ts your move -
Combined board and checkers folded from one square


Image

When I get the right paper, I will fold the full board with a game in progress (sorry, the pieces are part of the single sheet and do not move)

I had a go at this today as well. I found it pretty hard and towards the end the model got a bit 'chunky'. I'll have another go soon.

Kingfisher: is the head too big? I compared it with some real pictures and I don't think it is, but I may be biased :S Someone tell me the truth :(

Cephalopod: The shrimp looks so alive, however, you could add more details, though that may compromise its gracefulness.
Good Job!
