The songbird is very good from such a small paper! :)

Yes the Songbird is great. That blue looks really nice. I'm guessing this is the one from the video you posted for me.

First completion of Lang's Songbird.

Not as good as Origami_8(Anna?), but I tried. I definitely need to refold this one.

Army Tim, your songbird is alright, main problem being the head- its far too small!
Anna, your songbird is great! I like the irritated expression you gave it! After all, which bird likes to be crafted out of paper? Also, nice hoopoe.

Thanks man. I knew the head was gonna be a problem, but I'm working on it now and it already looks better. also trying to round the body more

Nice Chameleon, glad to see you put him back in his surroundings.

Your tulip is beautiful! You could leave it as it is, but I have a couple of small suggestions to consider. I typically think of tulips as having more oblong petals, rather than the wider ones in yours, but it could just be a different species. Also, I would recommend to wet-fold it from some nice paper-foil just doesn't quite work for flowers.

Quentin, I can only say one thing- amazing!!!! The color changes are great, though to me, you could do without the ones on the back. Great job!
eaglehorn- great job! Add a few more flowers and you get a bouganvilla :D .

My Flickr

Hi! It's been a long while since I've been active on here. I deleted my Dropbox years ago, so some things, like my Dragonfly Varileg guide, are lost to time. I may still have other things, though! Email me if you have any questions.

I folded DonyaQuick's Narwhal

Image

Hard to get it to stay closed along the back though. I might try modifying the design a bit and see if I can get the split along the belly instead of the back.
