Papercraft Object: Phase I Prototype

I decided to do an object I lost. It’s not a typical object it is actually a organ I lost almost thirteen years ago. I was diagnosed with a rare form of thyroid cancer. I almost died. I had 24 positive tumours removed, muscle, lymph nodes, and my thyroid. I have a foot long scar on my neck.
I wanted to do this object with various techniques and if I have time I would like to do a similar idea to that if Raya. Her pieces like the Olympic athletes gave me an idea for stacking up the thyroid and building it that way. Should I have time to do so I would like to do another piece in this way.
My prototype is far from refined. I am thinking the quilling I will do on the final paper piece will be more detailed and I will take my time to crest detail in the piece. I also want to add paper lace, my own cut paper to make it look lace like.  Ideally to put this over top sections and have the quilling almost look like it’s exploding out of the piece. The shape of the thyroid isn’t exactly accurate because when someone has cancer the tumours create an irregular boarder around the piece. Cancer is not symmetrical it is a asymmetrical mess of masses. Perhaps I am taking a risk going against the grain of the norm for this assignment but I would like to get the point of my object apart as it isn't something that is perfectly square, or round, cancer is less geometrical and more sporadic.
