The papercraft I have to say is pretty hard to do, because unlike other papercrafts, I never pre-bend the fold lines on the pieces, because at the end it looks so much smooth and real-figure-like, but in this one you, else you have no idea how to put each and every spike together =_= and it's really draining too. So I started as I always do, making the 4 feet and the face first. I just love his little excited face with the tongue XD so much fun to make. But after you finish with those sepparate parts, it's off to make the probably 100 spikes on his body (didn't really count them, I am just guessing XD feels like 10000 when you are making them). So I started on the head and made my way to the tail, where I closed it at the end. You can also reverse it, make the tail first and colninue your way to the head and close it anywhere at his 4 paws as well, if you like it that way.
