Firstfold, is it possible to colourchange the head for hair?
I think you got the lower body pretty good but the upper body could still be improved a bit.

tanvuong85, nice idea, but the rules for this month challenge include that the design is made from a square.

When uploading pictures to ImageShack you should check the "resize image?" checkbox and choose "640x480 (for message boards)". The pictures will have a reasonable size then.
I have changed your pictures to links for now.
So long and keep folding ^_^

Possibly...

But then there would be no colour change :wink:

Anyway, you would need to fold it from a square for the model you post a picture of, even if that adds thickness to it. So you would need very thin paper. If you can get that though, I'd love to see the final model, because it is a very nice model!

It is a nice model. The biggest problem is that it is only 50% human form. There seems to be rather a lot of horse involved.
I once set up an origami PLC. But the business folded.
