I loved folding this so much, i tried it 5 times in one week. got it perfectly right 3 out of the 5. The model itself is probably the most realistic looking swallow on the web. The time and effort I spent folding it was well worth the effort. I'm hoping that with my next try, I won't be needing to recheck here. Thanks so much for this wonderful tutorial! - Please do the same with your Kio fish

So proud I managed this on the first try! Took about an hour to fold, pausing and un-pausing the video. I'm gonna give it to my mom for her birthday tomorrow, she loves swallows. :D <3
