Thanks, Kiwi. :^)

Always cute to watch these performances. :^)

Wow, neat find.

* I think papercraft waifus are still a good idea in many ways. First & foremost is the cost (super low), ease of design & construction, ready access to materials, light weight, ...(and others I'm sure).
* The downsides are low strength, low durability (very fragile -- especially by moisture), not very comfy-feeling as a shell material *, ...(and again, probably others).
I think if its used conscientiously in relationship with other materials (wood, metal, plastic, etc.), then many of it's downsides can be at least partially-addressed, while still maintaining most of it's upsides. And its still a very-strong contender as the primary source material for production of extremely low-cost robowaifus for everyman around the world (a personal dream of mine. :^)
<--->
Regardless, I still maintain that its the best shell mockup material choice for robowaifu prototype designing (especially full-scale ones) bar none.
>tl;dr
1. design robowaifu prototype shells using paper => patch same robowaifu shell designs with paper => (lather, rinse, repeat),
2. transfer (geometrical) knowledge thus obtained to robowaifu shell production materials & manufacturing approaches.
Simple as.

* The primary exception here being literal silk paper. Its expensive, but it can be obtained.
