So when do we figure out the winner of the contest? The first? Or later?

Thank you!


So multi-entries are ok,huh? :)
Here's my second entry!

Flickr에서 green cube님의 Malboro
Malboro(Final Fantasy)
Back-foiled Korean Hanji(Green) 41cm x 41cm
(One of the most complex models I've ever designed..)
Based on traditional Double-Blintzed Frog Base
-------------------------
As far as I know, containing me, there are only three origami Malboro designs in the world. Since the other two models have each own unique features in it, I tried hard to make it look original and different from them. Well, I guess it's quite a success in my opinion.. :)

In the early 1980s Stephen Weiss created a model of a 2D dog and house with the Dog’s Head and paws sticking out of the house. A few years later he went on to make this model 3D. I decided about 10 years later to make a model with the dog fully out of the house from a single rectangle. You can see that model here:

After folding my “Home improvements” I decided to fold a new version of the model with a “New Dog” and a “New House”. Here is my latest version with the combined Dog and house still folded from just a single rectangle:

Someone suggested that I should add windows to the house. Well here it is:

This version with windows is folded from one rectangle.

@piemiam:
There is no post by you in the Moderation queue.
Actually you aren't Moderated at all. Everything you post should be visible immediately after you send it.
Only the first three posts of each member need to be approved by a Moderator. You already have 11 posts as of now. You've left the Moderated state on July 14, everything you posted afterwards didn't need approval but showed up directly.
So if your post isn't visible (and it obviously isn't), you should repost it immediately, to make it into this contest in time.

Lots of great submissions! Figured I best submit another creation:
Self-Standing Petite Paper People

For the theme:
I based the two male models on the right to the girl on the left. So please DON'T take my origami girl into consideration when judging this submission.

Paper:
All paper was folded with 6" double sided paper (although dual sided paper is not needed).
Creativity is @ \/\/£ 5 () |\/| £

Not really a proper entry (unfinished and badly folded #-o )

The idea was to go from the basic scale texture to the "flagstone" pattern seen in the top portion of the second picture, but the sinks got quite tricky and accuracy suffered until didn't want to carry on! The other face could be interesting and I like it when back lit but the folding is to bad to show :lol:
