Making a 3D zoo

Voluminous articles made of paper and cardboard can be made on different topics, for example, from these materials you can make a whole zoo. The algorithms for making figures from colored paper and cardboard are different, and in the process of work it must be taken into account.

A simpler version is to make three-dimensional figures of animals from corrugated cardboard. The first thing to start with is to find the suitable silhouette of the animal, there are several options. One of the options is that the contours of the silhouette of the animal can be painted independently. Another option is to download a suitable silhouette, print it, then on it to outline the contours on the cardboard and cut.
