They say easily recognizable simple models are some of the hardest to create. Pureland shouldn't be too much harder, should it? =p. I haven't seen many published pureland models (or at least designated as pureland), besides the four on origami.com by Marc Kirschenbaum and J.C. Nolan, the two-fold Santa by Paula Versnick, Joseph Wu's Stegosaurus, and a few others on the internet.
In theory, pureland should be the easiest to create.
In practice, it is trickier than one would think...
Here is a pureland bear of mine, for inspiration.

I once set up an origami PLC. But the business folded.

The judge will be Anermak for this month's competition, so you'll have to convince them of the model's authenticity.
Read the essay. Single mountain and valley folds only. No crimps, no reverse folds, no petal folds, no rabbit-ear folds, no elias-stretches...
All you are allow are one or two squares, mountain folds and reverse folds.
Here are some other designs for ideas:

Pureland Folding examples
I would like to submist some models for the April Folding challenge but first want to make sure I thoroughly understand the rules.
The best way for me to do this is by showing examples of a basic folds and determining which do and do not fit the rules.
On my web site I have somewhat arbitrarily devided "starting Folds" into 12 categories. I believe that most if not all folds in group 1 fit the Pureland categorty.
I have diagramed all these fold on my web site.
The one fold I am not sure about is what I call the "Flip-Out". Is it pureland or not?
You might also want to look at group 2. These are example I believe do NOT belong to Pureland but wouhd like verification that my belief is correct.

Narrow kite is not any reverse or squash, only valley, valley and mountain on both triangles. You can find such diagram on our website.
