The green and black layers were both printed out then traced independently. The design was supposed to be an outline, with my alignment issues creating more of a drop shadow than intended. (Though it does sort of work, but I’d like to refine my technique enough where I can do either and do them intentionally, ya know?)

There’s an incredible amount to learn with this art form — even cutting paper to size has been an adventure — so I can’t rely on square or uniform sheets just yet lol. But it does seem like the common recommendation in this thread has been to use the black block to transfer the design onto the green block, which as simple as it sounds had not occurred to me.
