Well, I'll have to get designing pigs now :wink:

(By the way, Wen Fu Kai, your smilies aren't working because there is no space between the letters and the smiley. Just thought I'd mention that.)

I´ve folded a pig some time ago but don´t remember how I did it. Original design by me from 7cm kami:

Maybe my piggy bank counts too...

cavemanboon, vohinhlantu, and others how about doing this challenge-may the best looking pig be given the name: "Best of Show" for 2007
wen fu kai, thanks but u folks just go ahead and have fun. i will be out of town for a week or so and besides, i am taking a short break from folding - the last few weeks before the launch of our site had been pretty tiring. btw, for those who may be interested, diagrams for a pig by elias can be found here in the BOS website :

maybe I will, yes. but as I'm a really bad designer it will become more of a fun fold :)

I've designed a scene from the fairy tale "Three little pigs" for this challenge.

It shows the three little pigs hiding in the house while the big bad wolf (no, I'm not talking about you, Eileen) tries to get in through the chimney, all from one square with no cuts!!

Click here to display that amazing piece of art. :)

Looks more like a chicken to me. In Austria pigs are grilled with their head still in place.

Wow, what weird pigs you guys make! I managed to make a half decent pig, which is also my first time designing from a CP. I am still working on what I originally wanted, but I thought up simple pig just in case I don't finish what I want in time for the end of the contest:

Okay, so maybe it's not so good. But this is only my first attempt, I need to work on the shaping a bit.
