KIRIN
My rendition of the Kirin is different from Kamiya's as I based it on a different picture.

This is probably a stupid question, but I want to make sure my model will count before I fold it a second time (its truly a pain to fold)
It seems like all the examples are from a long time ago, or from mythology. Is it okay if I fold something from modern Japanese culture?

That's why I was asking the same thing, are you talking about kaiju (Godzilla, Gamera, Mothra, Destoroyah etc)?

No, its not a monster or anything, its actually a specific person I chose to fold in order to represent a sub-culture in Japan

I finally got a chance to read up on some of the Japanese Mythical Creatures and of course, I tried to opt for the easiest possible thing to design.
My first attempt was based off the description I read:
Yuki-Onna - Appears as a beautiful maiden wearing all white, or with white skin. She appears during snowy nights or during the full moon, and manifests as a white vapour that blows through the cracks of the door. She sucks the life out of the sleeping through her breath giving the impression that they froze to death.
Attempt 1:
There, you can see the white snow and the all-white maiden!
However, seeing as I based it off a description only and not an image, here's attempt 2:
I used this image to help me (although I had to change the hair):
Judge(s) - the decision to take me seriously is up to you ^_^
