the construction approach.
I knew that I could obtain a seriously accurate model using this material. I've worked with paper and knew that I could draw and fold into it. I wanted to construct the house a little differently than any of the others and so I followed the 'net' route. This involved the following stages...
-drawing the net onto the piece of paper accurately to scale ready for cut out.
-then using a steel rule and knife I was able to cut perfectly against the pencil line on my net. I also remembered to cut just on the inside of the line so that no pencil marks could be seen in the finished model (aesthetic appeal)
-with the flaps out I used a standard glue stick and connected the faces together. The finish on the edges came out really well. The idea was so that the joints could not be seen leaving the viewer near clueless on how it was made... I feel this was achieved.
