Makara Origami 1

ID: 1040 | This file appears in: The Makara: A Game-Design Model
This image shows an origami interpretation of a creature called the Makara. The design features a crocodile like creature with a curving elephant trunk and long tusks protruding from the front head of a crocodile. The body of the crocodile features sharp ridges along its back and four large legs each adorned with four sharp claws. The rail features a long and patterned shape of a fish ending in a fan-like shape with the tail being covered in a set of scales. Though not part of original depictions, this model of the Makara includes armor made from aluminum foil. This armor is placed on the creature's head and along its neck covering it in a fan like plating while being added as metal bracelets on the front two legs of the model as well.<br />

Physical Dimensions: 11 inches long, 4 inches wide (at its widest point) and 2 inches tall
