Step 4: Customize the Sculpture

Once finished, you can personalized the sculpture according to your taste. The customization options are infinite!
You can color each face with felt-tip pens to make it multi-colors (I did it for several models). Or, you can paint it to
make it stronger & easier to be cleaned. With an oil paint or even spray paint, it will look like laminated & your
friends won’t believe you made it with paper!
