And of course, had to make it for my mom specifically, because she is crazy about frogs as I am XD And some building tips for those who want to make it for themselves as well.
**************************
As with all of them, start with the head, move to the bottom. Begin making the eyes first and then build the head around that, making your way down to the neck.
Once the whole head is done, make the upper torso, the toga. Make the 2 sleeves, the 2 arms separately and glue those inside the sleeves, and then join them together with the upper torso part. Once you have this, glue on the torso part to the neck of the pre-made head and build the toga to the bottom.
Then, build the legs, starting from bottom to top and glue them inside the toga at the right angle.
At the end, you glue together the 2-sided halo and the wings and glue them on the head and on the backside of the frog. *Pro-tip: Make sure that the longer wing part touches the ground, so it has an additional “3rd leg” to stand on. This way, the frog will stand without problems and you don’t need to fill in the legs or anything. And all done.
Additionally to just gluing on the halo on the head, as I did, you can also glue it on wire and glue it inside the head to make it appear as it if floats, to make it prettier.

*On a side note: Under no circumstances do I promote any kind of religion or faith, since I am strictly against any kind of religious dogma, from Christianity to Hinduism, Islam, Animism, Astrology (yes, it’s the same unfounded, non-logical, unscientific belief system as all religions have), etc. I am a woman of science, evolution and rationalism and I personally believe these indoctrinated systems give birth to violence and wars, as well as destroy the very foundation of human kind. -- This is not supposed to be a typical Christian “angel” as people know it, because as with many things this religious system falsified during humankinds’ history, the true angels from any kind of “holy” texts are not even depicted as human-like, have 20 wings, 1000 of eyes, etc. Yeah, look it up, human-looking winged people or angels are not a religious thing, but a symbol and a mythical being anybody should use, without having to justify their position on religion and such nonsense. So, it’s a winged, angelic white light being; a non-religious angel, that symbolizes purity and elegance itself.

Just wanted to do some different, fun to design papercrafts I liked myself, and this came out of it. I really love frogs; they are super cute animals and I also collect figures of frogs if I see some nice ones XD
Hope you like the winged cutie in and case andhappy crafting~
