Origami Peacock

Peacocks are showy birds that make for showy origami models. This one is no exception. The use of the white side is effective and the pleats in the long tail sell the feathers well enough.

It turned out find, but I don’t personally like peacock models very much. Maybe I feel like it is overdone, but I just don’t look forward to them. Like many such models, the body and head are particularly small to make up for the tail and there isn’t much to see there. Also, with the dragging tail, it is essentially impossible to stand unless you balance it perfectly on some perch. None of this is unique to this model, just a general list of complaints about peacocks I guess.
