This week I had a paper model built up. It is a fan art for the puzzle game Monument Valley. It is popular with its Esher-esque impossible shaped puzzles (and solutions).
Here is a screenshot of an early level in the game:

And for the last step, I painted a lake and cut lilies from green paper for the background:
