I want to pat his head.
But, folding this work was much more difficult than it looks.
I took 3 hours.
This time, I used a paper that called "Karape lapis".
I was able to express the texture of hippo's skin.

Great blog! I am enjoying seeing your folding. I have a question about the paper you used to fold the Komatsu Hippo... Where do you buy Karape Lapis paper that is 35cm?! I can only find 15cm square sheets :(
