If you can fold it again, you can probably make a diagram for it. If you can't, then try reverse engineering (unfolding it, taking pictures as you go) :D I'd love to try out the model

Really nice leprechaun :D

I finally got to folding the Jackalope by KAMIYA Satoshi, but it looks like some kind of vampire thing:

Also, I designed a Two-headed Man (CP is in my blog)

I used to fold the Kamiya's Jackalope too but it fail.
I don't know how to do next with the base.

I folded Guspath's werewolf again.
I think it looks pretty good.

With the base, you have to put the antlers behind the head before adding details. Thats why it took me so long to fold it, I had to find the head.

I have simply made for myself a universal technique on assembly crease pattern if interest for you can come to

I tried some washi paper with LaFosse's A Butterfly for Alice Gray. It is a very different folding experience.

I tried my hand at creating a diagram for my cartoon cat. My first experience with Freehand. All in all, I like it, but it will take getting some used to.

I need to work on it some more, but it's a start.

Lookin' good. You just need to fix Step 7. You don't want those folds going all the way through the model. Use x-ray lines to show that; also continue the creases going up. Additionally, Step 7 does not get you to the final figure. You're missing a couple folds.

I like how you can wear it over your head. :)

Thanks for the feedback! I'll try to work on the diagram. How do you indicate that the folds should only be the uppermost layers? As for LaFosse's butterfly, it is in the origami.com diagrams:
