Hello! I made an account here a couple of months ago when I first started to make origami(really simple stuff,) but I've recently started to get back into it. I would appreciate tips and constructive criticism on my folding and photography.
Details about paper and whatnot is on my Flickr, which is linked in my signature.
Here is a Buffalo designed by Hoang Tien Quyet.
And here is a close up of it's head.
Here is a Cat(Neko) designed by Jo Nakashima
Hope y'all like this!

Your folding is very accurate, but soft shaping could use some work. It isn't bad by any means, but some lines that are supposed to be curved aren't, or look too sharp. It may be the paper. Have you ever tried wet-folding with canson? it works great with these two models

Thank you! The buffalo was made with wet folded canson, but I'm working on shaping. This was my first wet folded model. Thank you again for the advice!
