Monthly CP challenge: January 2014

It's a fresh year so I think it's fitting to try out a fresh model too!
This Month's challenge is
Chameleon by Paulius Mielinis

A very slight tweak to the head part can be found on Paulius' flickr. Both versions work.

The shaping takes some time to figure out, don't give up! Also remember that it's not a given that the rendition closest to the original model wins. Good luck guys and thank you Paulius for sharing your wonderful models.

Good luck all!

The base is easy as folding a crane. But shaping it is twice hard.

I know the shaping is by far worse than on the original but I'm happy with it.

How on earth can the flap for the lower jaw be so small and yet be so big at the end!?

Here's my Chameleon:

The head is so not correct. My paper was getting really rust in the head and I just came up with something.
But everything is spot on.
