looking for a white elephant?

Sorry if this isn't the right area to post this question, please move if it should be elsewhere.

I am looking for the paper pattern to build an elephant (see attached) for my son. He likes this one, sitting, etc.. I've searched but so far, no-joy.

Thanks in advance if you know of a place to find it.

Thank you! There are some great animals there ---I'll keep that link for project reference.

I pretty much am looking for that specific (or close to it) elephant to keep it as simple as possible (yet look awesome too )

Thanks, I like it too --- it's for my son who wanted a white elephant (sitting) for an upcoming party. This picture came up in a search and he said 'I like that one'....so I thought I'd post here in case somebody recognized it knew where I could find one.

I'm thinking about trying to reverse engineer one out of the picture, in case I can't find a real pattern as a plan B.

Actually it looks a lot like this lamp:

A very nice design.

And probably someone could indeed try to develop a paper model from it. From the way it appears to be built, it looks feasible.

The article said it came folded flat in the box so it shouldn't be that much more of a step up to paper. You could also use it for a lamp if you used LEDs.

Interesting...
