THE BASIC CONCEPT

This is a four piece design. Nets / developments have been designed for the three main parts - the head, upper body and legs/trousers

TROUSERS / LEGS

The colour scheme gives the impression that the character is wearing jeans.

The colour and detail are added before folding to shape.

HEAD

The head is a cuboid shape, folded and glued.

Facial characteristics are added with pencils, fine pens and even colour card.

UPPER BODY

A complicated shape, but it folds to form the upper body. A colour scheme is added.

Detail can be drawn onto the front of the 3D shape, before it is glued together.

SUPER HERO CLOAK

Any appropriate design for a superhero can be drawn onto this shape. The ‘cloak’ folds round the character.

The final design:

The three main parts are glued together, producing a character that stands up.

The cloak is simple wrapped round the character and the two tabs are glued on to the ‘shoulders’.
