i am looking for a few models.

Who has created the most realistic Stegosaurus and Stork? The complexity doesn't matter. there should the CP or Diagram exist. The stork would be great with B/W color changing. Thanks : )

Hm, the most realistic stegosaurus I know is the one by Kawahata:

There might be others, but I think the design is hard to beat.

Not sure about realistic looking storks...

Thanks : ) This one looks great : ) I especially wanted realistic plates on the back, so kawahatas model has those.

Kawahata's stegosaurus is much harder than it looks, plus the instructions are in Japanese. Use thin, strong paper like Kraft wrapping paper. I did mine in tissue foil and found the final shaping very difficult.

Do NOT use thick Kraft paper. Use a really thin, stiff one. I made mine out of 70cm square 65 gsm Kraft and it went well until the shaping, where it completely and utterly failed. Although your Kraft looks very good, Paulius, so you wouldn't have that problem.

I have never used Kraft paper...

Sorry, baking paper or whatever you used for Nguyen Hung Cuong's Eagle.

Yes, the most models are from baking paper

Hi paul
The best stegosaurus i have ever seen folded!
Waiting for the b/w stork!

What about stork (with color changes) i could only find this:

without diagrams and CP. And, to be honest, i am not in love with this.. : )
So Sara suggested me to design one by my own

I think I'll do it someday : )
