2d to 3d cubes

.

Thinking about the design of a cube I thought it would be easy but it turns out the perfect cube has to have dimensions that make the cube all come together as one unit. I learned this while doing my paper craft cube, it all comes together perfectly when crafting it. 

When doing my second cube since it had some artwork on it, it was hard to find the tabs like before, one mistake was I should have left the tabs white to have some guidelines on where to fold so that was a design mistake. I think it looks better and it is sturdier but it was a lot harder without the tabs.
