Reindeer [pdf]

This is a set of instructions to fold an origami reindeer from a single square. The document consists of eleven pages and ninety-four illustrations. Since this is an advanced origami project, prior experience with folding paper is recommended.

A common design flaw for subjects like deer (with many appendages towards one end) is to have an uneven distribution of thickness. This piece features a neck that is easy to pose, and forelegs that show enough raw edge to give the illusion of lightness.
