Kaadu

Kaadu are wingless birds with scaly tan and white skin. They are sure footed, have sharp hearing and an excellent sense of smell. While they are now adapted to life on land, they evolved from aquatic origins and can still breath underwater for short periods. The Gungans use the kaadu as mounts for their security forces and armies.

I created the Kaadu figure while trying to make a turkey centerpiece for our Thanksgiving Day feast at work. Instead, I made a half kaadu, half mutant turkey. With a little tweaking, I came up with the model you see here. The kaadu figure is one I never seem to be finished toying with. I keep making minor adjustments and additions. That’s one of the beautiful things about origami; there’s always room for improvement.
