Excellent tutorial Kevin. I would like to add from my own experience: Work as symmetrical as possible, leave the triangular flaps for the last and try to build up the bodyshape by first gluing the bigger, shape defining tabs. In this way the body already gets its, let's call it nomimal shape, which makes it easier to get the secondary tabs done, and finally the small triangular fitting flaps. I usually glue small pieces of scrap paper inside the body, to fully seal off the tab connections, and this also helps to emboss (burnish) and round off any small edges.

Great work!

Erik
