I have realised that paper is the bane of my existence. I can definitely say that this was difficult for me. Paper is hard for me to manipulate the way I want. I also had issues with the glue not sticking very well, especially on the knob on top of the diamond container, but that could have also been an issue with the tabs being too short. Generally the bust is made up of a bunch of little triangles which were all supposed to line up and have a flat bottom, but in my model that is not the case. Near the point the triangles stopped lining up thus giving the uneven base. The object is functional in the way that the head opens and could technically be used to put things in. The diamond container worked better for me however it was much less complicated than my bust. Yet I still had issues with glue and so on. I can say that paper prototypes are definitely not my strong point
For your first paper models (I'm pretending I never saw those other ones :O) this is AWESOME. I was so pumped when I saw the bust you did. So great. My suggestion for avoiding bias is to strategically break the model into several separate shells, then join them together with tabs. Let's chat about this in class...
