If you left that in you front yard, wouldn't it get soaked and die when it rains?

Nice folding, everyone. I've folded three new pieces, all of which are available on my Etsy store:

Fancy Goldfish Again by soozafone, on Flickr

Red-Tailed Hawk by soozafone, on Flickr

Ugly Dragon by soozafone, on Flickr

(I'm normally a pretty strict purist, but I tried painting it to see if it would appeal to a wider audience.)

Look at this:

This is the first CP I have ever drawn, and it's a figure I designed about 2 weeks ago.
I would have taken a photo of the model but my camera is out of battery...
Also... am not totally sure that the CP is right
Well, whatever, can someone guess what it is?

And gab, those models are really neat! I specially like the hawk

Due to some personal issues, I can't log in to Flickr for the time being, but I just finished a new design: Sonic The Hedgehog.

Well, I've managed to crease and collapse it, but I've got no idea what it's meant to become.
Did I collapse it correctly?

You got it wrong, but here's some help:
The fixed CP, with some Mountains and valleys, hope they're of help (My CP was almost perfect, but there was just one extra line)
By the way, the feet are done by folding a half of a bird base.
Fixed CP:

Collapsed base:

Finished model

Sad giant:

The story behind this model is a bit interesting, about 3 weeks ago I was playing with a paper and I thought to myself "Hey, this looks like a giant face!", so I picked another paper in order to make the face and let enough space for the body, I ended up using a 16x16 grid, and after 1 hour this model was done.
You can tell just by looking at the CP that it was inspired by Eric Joisel, actually all the design process was very fluid(and quick by the way). While folding this model I couldn't stop thinking "This is what Joisel must have felt while making his models"

Even with those mountains and valleys marked I had some trouble around the stomach and hips area.
Still, with your photos as a guide I managed to get it looking just about right.

I only used 15cm paper, and not all that thin, so the final shaping is a bit lacking. I did the feet a different way for the sake of simplicity too.
