Making my folded format 2

For my final folded format I used two different methods for the flaps. One would be a pull out and the other would be a lift the flap. For the flaps I would use a scapel to cut out a section leaving half of one side still attached and folded along that line. I did these shapes in line with the rocks so that when cutting them out I didn't have to be too precise. 

I did the same with the pull out design but made sure it was completely cut out. I added cartridge paper to the back of the folded format for both but left a gap in the pull outs for a piece of card to slip through to allow the pull out to move. 
 The top picture shows the flaps closed and the pull outs in position.
This bottom picture shows the pull outs pulled out and the flaps lifted. 
Here is a video demonstrating how the pull out works.

One of the men looks like his thinking of something to say with his confused expression, his legs crossed- a closed of position and almost looks defensive. On the other hand, the other man looks quite angry and disappointed, his arms crossed- a very negative gesture. His feet are pointing outwards as he's not ready to talk.  This drawing at the bus stop is my least ...
