Wow, that looks very nice. :-)

You should maybe use a bit thinner paper though, the legs seem to be bulkier than they are supposed to be.

Yeah it's very nice, Ilike that the legs and the beak are in different color.

Wow, I'm really flattered, thanks for all the great feedback! :D

Daydreamer, i will try some thinner paper, and i might try thinning the legs out a bit more, and maybe making them a bit longer too; they aren't quite the right proportion yet. :)

I'd say it took about 20 minutes or so, I really should try one from better paper and try thining out the legs like i promised Daydreamer :D
