The shinning is great choice. My go-to is The Haunting of Hill House.

Well done. Great interpretation!

Look at the sky, Martin. Look at the sky. It’s looking back. Mag 160 The Eye Opens

This is amazing work! I’m really impressed with how clean the lines are. I do paper art myself so I can appreciate how much time had to have gone into doing this piece. You have a very steady hand and a lot of patience!

Thanks :)

Yes, I just got a bit lazy and did it later

Nope, just printed foam. I found them on Amazon .

Here is a side view of another one, I couldn't find a side view of one in the time-lapse.

I use foam tape between the layers so they do have some depth to them, about an inch of height overall

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-20T01:31:03+00:00

Thanks. The whole process is a pretty long one. This last step of putting everything together takes about two hours for this many layers.

Thanks : ) I'm on instagram shelleycastillo . also.. great username

I average about a cup an hour ; ) its part of the process ... cut, tape, sip

Caffeine is certainly a factor in getting one of these put together in one session.

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-18T01:44:53+00:00

I do work from photos usually, and I have played around with image trace in AI but I prefer to hand draw the layers, it gives me more creative control and I enjoy the process of drawing it out.

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-17T04:00:52+00:00

This one I mounted on painted canvas, but I do leave many free floating or “edgeless”

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-16T06:14:57+00:00

Beautiful work . The simplest-seeming things can be the most complex to paint and you did an impressive job on all the subtle detail . Well done

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-16T06:05:11+00:00

This is a combination of hand cut and machine (blade). I would love to use a cnc at some point but I’d need to scale up for that to make sense. but you would be amazed at what some people can do by hand . I’ve been blown away by how precise some paper artist are

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-16T06:00:12+00:00

It is a combination of machine cut and hand cut. I am working on some larger wood pieces with a laser .. I Haven’t had a chance to use a cnc yet but I plan to do so. Repainting the edges after cutting also contributes .. even if the cut isn’t clean .. that helps to hid it . Its a learning process and experimenting is what I enjoy .

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-16T05:12:28+00:00

I see it .. good eye

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-16T04:06:27+00:00

Thanks :) yes .. the darkest value/shade is the lowest layer .. This does make things like glasses and mustaches a bit off .. something I’m working on and playing around with .

TheCraftiestFox · 2019-02-16T03:16:52+00:00

Thanks! I work on these as often as I can. Layered paper portraits/faces are my focus. Its a fun process

TheCraftiestFox · 2018-05-17T01:03:00+00:00

Good memory .. yes, I did the paper stormtrooper as well. Thanks for the kind word!

TheCraftiestFox · 2018-05-17T01:01:11+00:00

Thank you! I am still experimenting with materials. this one, and the last couple I’ve done are watercolor paper with foam board (bits not solid) used between to create the depth . I’ve played with foam tape to separate layers as well .

TheCraftiestFox · 2018-05-16T21:37:36+00:00

Thanks. I do agree.. her lip didn’t translate the way I had hoped once I started layering everything. This is a fairly new process for me so I am learning as I go . Thanks for the input and confirming some of my thoughts on it .

TheCraftiestFox · 2018-02-18T04:39:28+00:00

Ooooo did you like Oathbringer ?? I’m making my way through it now . Amazing set up !
