Good

Clay is constructed nicely, but parts of the sculpture show roughness and could have been smoothed out more. Box is slightly larger than requirement. Lid does not have interlocking pieces.
Excellent

Sculpture is strong, neat, and balanced in a way that demonstrates control of media used. Sculpture stayed together in one piece. Box meets size requirement and has an interlocking lid that doesn't slide off the top of the sculpture.
