A quick recipe from Paper Engineer Sachin George Sebastian
Ingredients:-
1)paper - 1 table full
2)glue - 1 bottle (500mg)
3)scissor - few sharp cuts
4)paper cutter - 1
5)blades - 1 handful
6)cutting mat - 1 table full
7)concepts - few thoughtful
8)client brief - if necessary
9)time - depends on 7 & 8
10)love&patience - unlimited
Process:-
Step 01
-Get the concepts (client's brief) washed and cooked for few days/weeks just to make things clear in your head. Add a lot of love at intervals for better results.
Step 02
-Once the concept is ready, try out cutting few small paper with scissor to get a basic draft on what to make. This step doesn't need any detailed cuts, but all elements should be cut in place. You will end up in a white dummy.
Step 03
-Now that the white dummy is ready, mix the step 01 on to few big sheets placed over the cutting mat. Use a paper cutter with sharp blades to carve out the details. This process can go upto few weeks/months. so u need to keep the patience throughout this step.
Things to remember:-
-Never loose your patience.
-Keep referring back to the step 02 and feel free to add more details at any point of time.
-Don't forget to change the blades occasionally.
-Keep your hands washed and dry every 45 min.
-Cutting mat should have only the main artwork at any given time.
-Rest of the small paper chops to be dropped off the table (not in the bin for now ).
-You must be now finding yourself surrounded with paper chops all over the room.
-In the end, that cutting mat on the table, carrying your latest creation, will answer all the questions you had for your patience.
-Surprise yourself, keep smiling:)
The last instruction is the most important! More Sachin, here.
