I thought you might like that one Philip. A Google Image search on 'Paper Buddha' turned up a lot of images, but not many led to a paper model. Of the few that did, this was by far the best one in my opinion.

Try to make a lineless version without putting in any of the folds. Just let the tabs pull it into a curved shape. Removing the tabs completely and using tapes to butt join the seams will add much to the smooth surface effect too. With a bit of inside burnishing a well rounded surface should be achievable.
