That is an amazing vulture. I love the huge wingspan and legs.

Awesome job!

CP?

Sevond attempt will be with thinner paper (especially for the talons.

This is looking promising. I think that wing design is the most fitting for this bird (out of the ones that you've tried).

I can't see the Bald Eagle, but the Ostrich is really awesome. I love Quentin's models... I'd like to be able to learn how to create such great models.

Hey guys, thanx for the comments.
I took down the first Bald Eagle photo, but put another one up on my flickr site, just click on the link by my signature and it will take you there!

Ostrich looks great the only thing that bothers me are the wings. Maybe try folding them down so they aren't sticking up so much. And trying to balance him on the back leg so you get even more motion with the model where it would like he was pushing off of the back leg and has the front one lifted, ready to step forward. Oh, and the tail feathers should point down, not up (see picture below). I gotta try and go look at the eagle now....

Grizzly Bear
From an uncut square.
I changed the proportions of the previous design somewhat. The body is bulkier now and it also stands unsupported.
The front claws are pretty cool, but you cant see it on this photo.

I really like its head and the paws look great as well! Looks like you spend a lot of time shaping this one.
The only thing that looks a bit odd is that the back is 'dented in' so much, due to the crimp fold, but I guess that's kind of unavoidable.
Excellent work Quentin.

Thanx Adam.
The Bear was dry-folded, so not too much shaping involved.
That "dent" can be changed to any degree, but I like it like that, it defines the "nuchal hump" of the grizzly bear that, among other things, distinguishes it from other bears.

Good work on the bear Quentin. I would like to see a picture from the front as well, just out of curiosity
