Origami X’s Elephant

Cruising fakebook, as one is likely to do when at home unwell, I stumbled across a beautiful little elephant shared as a photo by “Origami X” (sorry, I do not know this users real name).

I asked if diagrams for this new design were likely, and joy of joys was privy to a share of a photo sequence I knew i had to try:

This model is really elephantine, proportions are cute, I love the head assembly and ears/trunk combo – they happen so naturally.

I folded this from a 20cm pink pearlescent card (I thought it would be too thick, but no) and think the result is a little charmer.

I think I would like to add this model to my memory repertoire as the form is lovely. I can see me folding this again.
