This model took me roughly 6 hours to fold. I loved the process! I didn't even recognize the eagle from its base, but Cuong Nguyen did a great job on detailing the model from the base. I'm totally amazed with the feather work and claws from this eagle.
Since the model is relatively complex, I used my own cut of 19.5"x19.5" Double-tissue paper treated with MC (Methyl Cellulose) for extra thin yet strong properties. By treating with MC, I was able to wet the base and sculpt the head and claws to my liking. When left dried, MC gives it a "solid/permanent" look.
