but this model requires quite a bit of precreaseing, and needs thin and strong paper to hold the model together properly.

For the giraffe, you might want to put the tail at the top of the body, instead of down at the legs. See:

(if it's too big, I'll post a link instead)

The tail starts from the top of the body, not down by the legs, like in your model:

yes, i have realized this and im working on it but thanks for pointing it out anyway! this is actually the biggest problem in the whole model at the moment and it quite hard to correct but i will still try my absolute best to position the tail right :D

Hey Josh. Your giraffe is looking better, but you have got to raise that tail. Or at least make it look like it came from higher.

Um, you say you wanted a cheetah with spots…but that doesn't look like a cheetah at all…and where are all the spots?

Your walrus is really cool. It fits the tissue-foil and your folding well enough. It looks to be one of your best! If you really are serious about writing a book, (I recommend against it. You'll be much better in a few years and should wait until then) this walrus is the first thing I would want to see.

giraffe: i know, i will definatly raise the tail and try to lift the neck.

cheetah: this was really hard and couldn't get that many spots but i did get a few around the legs and neck area.

walrus: thank you very much! this is actually much more complex than it looks.

book: i will do one model at a time for the book. the walrus and giraffe are definatly in there. i will put my best works in the book over the past year and upcoming years, so it will have my best models in there. :D

@Joshua about the hummingbird-in later refolds I would make a crimp fold at the neck to distinguish the fact that it has a head-at the moment it just looks like a neck with a sword bill on it.
