Pining for the perfect pig

I was recently given some good looking, but rather thick (canson mi tientes-like) pink paper. I have a friend who loves pigs. So, naturally, I thought to make a few pig models for her. Any suggestions? The paper is too thick to get too complex (nor am I that good), but something distinctive would be nice...

Thanks! I don't generally like video instructions, but this model looks so cool I might make an exception :)

Trollip's pig is on my short list for sure. I'm trying to find diagrams I know are legal. I messaged him here, so perhaps I will find out soon. I don't believe this has been collected in a book yet?
