most origami models look good on the outside but if you flip it over you will find a hole or a big mess i am trying to invent a technique for locking the bottom of the model together so that the model looks good all over and is completely 3d please post ideas and pictures

If you're trying to invent it then why are WE posting ideas and pictures? Sounds like you expect it to be invented already...

petr stuchley's tree frog isn't 3d, although it looks awesome from the top and bottom.

Such locking techniques have already been invented and are often untilised in models.

In fact, some diagrammed models have made use of complex locks in order to achieve a locked back or belly (with the former more into consideration).

There is Joseph Wu's awesome blue whale Very Happy , which has the head locked as it is closed belly. Joseph has made photo and video diagrams for the model Very Happy , though I've yet to find the latter Sad. Then there is also Didier Piguel's panda. Diagrams can be found in license to fold.

I'm not trying to invent anything for people who already have it like Joseph and such i'm trying to get ideas so that I can utilise it in my own modles and I just thought I'd be able to get help from other folders

maybe invent was the wrong word

It's not about inventing new techniques, but just allocating more paper for that purpose. It's wasteful and leads to a much smaller finished product, for little gain. It also makes it harder to fold, as you must keep all sides from imploding among other things.
