Nice one, particularly how you incorporated the first piece of paper into the second!
PeteriDishHobbyist General Artist

where would be the fun if I cheated like that? 
one sheet (not necessarily a square) and no cuts are my rules. There are cases where using more than one sheet is not only acceptable, but really the most sensible option, especially in making highly detailed paper sculptures* that would be godsmackingly difficult if not borderline impossible from one sheet only, but this model does not fall into that category by far. I have not made any such models as of yet, although I admit it is really tempting to try something like that at some point.

Are the wings folded from a separate sheet of paper?
PeteriDishHobbyist General Artist
I am happy to report they aren't
LeggurmHobbyist Writer
