Homeless?! HAH! The diagrams for the slug are in Michael Lafosse's book "Origami Art."

Hammerhead shark. It needs work, but I thought I'd upload it anyway. Sorry for the bad pic and fold.

Finally Gerwin and I came around folding WonTon dough. The dough dries out very quickly so you have to re-moisten it all the time. It is a hard material to work with because it either breaks or sticks to itself. Next time we try, we'll be prepared with many wet towels and maybe a small spray bottle of water. Probably it also helps to plan which models to fold (only very easy ones will work) and take your time to fold before bringing the oil to a boil. Just throwing the models into the oil and take them out later also doesn't work because they then unfold, you have to carefully bring them in, trying to keep the model in shape. Next time we'll be better prepared and hopefully will also get better results then this time.

@ JumPurge

Yes, they've been very delicious. We served them with Chinese hot sour soup.

Copper Tissue Foil from Origami-shop.
The size was huge, and I forget. I think the end model hand an end resulting wing span was maybe half a foot.

Never had hot sour soup. I should try that :0

Thanks, however, if you could see it IRL, the one wing is horrible x-x
I could never get the one ring symmetrical to the other with the right sinks, etc. D:
It happens so many times with Satoshi's phoenix and me. We have a love hate relationship -x-
