Time to reveal my favorite papercraft artwork that I’ve made for the Illumicrate mug serie
Time to reveal my favorite papercraft artwork that I’ve made for the Illumicrate mug series! Featured in their June 2020 box! Based on the Villains Duology by Victoria Schwab!I always love working in Victoria’s aesthetic - playing with a limited palette is a great color exercise. Fun fact! I created the background by caking on layers of gesso and acrylic, then carving through it with a steak knife to create the ‘wainscoting’ effect; as if carved by the knives present in the papercraft.❤️❤️❤️Vengeful Spoilers below! ❤️❤️❤️This papercraft was such a no-brainer. The concept just flowed out so easily, even though the contexts of the character’s symbolism are few sentences in passing. Victor blantantly being skewered by the knives are very blunt representantions of the episodes of severe pain he experiences throughout Vengeful. Eli’s was the most obscure, referencing his father carving 'new feathers into the torn wings of Eli’s back.’ Both boys struggling to make their way toward Marcella, who’s balancing on a bed a knives like a boss and then wisping them away without fuss.Bonus doodle I made while relistening to the series for this piece - from the scene in Vicious that always sends chills and thrills down my spine. -- source link
