Bulldog - Quentin Trollip

Bulldog After snorkelling with the manatees in Florida, I wanted to design one. The face resembled a bulldog more, and so I set off on designing the Bulldog instead. I used a common base, which uses most of the paper for the head and front legs of the model. Very little paper is used for the hind quarters. The big chest gives the Bulldog a more masculine effect.

Design and diagram info: Date: 20 Jan 2007 Difficulty: Intermediate Time to fold: 45 min

Crease Pattern:

Paper: Single Uncut Square Size: 40 cm Color: White - W hite Type: Type: Kami Kami Good Foil Good Wet-Fold Best

Face

Front leg

Ratio: 0.30

The distribution of layers is not ideal, but adds to the big chest of the Bulldog. The face can be shaped to the folder’s preference, adding more or less wrinkles as you wish.

Most papers work well, even up to 120gsm thickness. Wetfolding give the best results.
