Insects
Here is an area that has been much explored. Since the first butterflies with only a body and wings, we have seen grow antennas, legs, a trunk, all without giving a single scissors. Some models have been extensively studied, such as the Hercules beetle. Some insects resist, like the ladybug: its black spots are decidedly very difficult to put in place!
