Paper Ram
This paper ram is a design I found in an antique children's art and craft instruction book (you can see the original page below). I drew out the pattern (which is embedded below), should you wish to make your very own paper ram. I made several prototypes and found that a fairly heavy card stock worked best. Mine is decorated with ink pen and Sharpie markers.
After I was done with my ram and already had taken it's portrait, I realized that it would have looked more ram-like with the horns folded up (as they were in the original illustration). My animal more closely reassembles a water buffalo, so I guess you have two choices: ram or water buffalo.
Cut on the solid lines. Score/fold on the dotted lines.
