Using a background that is the same color as your model makes it a little hard to see.

I will try to add at least one "normal" photo for ease on the eyes.
I thought it might be interesting for some if they wanted to "flex" their perceptions.
Both the lang & curvers dragon are actually brown while the wu dragon is orange but strangely in the photos they are near identical.

Cartoon Frog by Nicolas Terry, 15cm x 15cm Japanese foil

Except for the fact that the back of the model doesn't close it's a very nice model :)

Extinct Bird by Nicolas Terry, 15cm x 15cm Japanese foil
Image
A very interesting folding method for getting all those tail feathers and I'm definitely gonna play around with this base a bit :)
So long and keep folding ^_^

My interpretation of Noboru Miyajima's Dragon folded from CP with 13 cm x 13 cm Kami.
Image

Not really resembling the original in any way although it's basically the same CP.
I've had those extra flaps in the inside which I used to make the hands so I had the original hand-flaps free to create the wings. I also took liberties with creating the head, since my model already looked totally different from the original anyway.
On the whole I think it looks kinda cute :)
So long and keep folding ^_^

Before folding the first two dragons I treated the paper with a mixture of white glue & water with a 1:1 ratio.

Medusa by Mario Adrados Netto from 15cm x 15cm Japanese foil.
Image
If you don't use foil of some sort for this model you won't be able to do it. Also take care with the precreasing. You actually don't need all of the 32ths horizontally plus those creases need to be the other way round than the vertical ones. (i.e. mountain and valleys reversed, not like in a normal box-pleated design)
