lovely stuff! something i'd recommend if you were ever to do this again is to run a black sharpie or something like that along the white edges of the paper to colour them in! it's a little thing but it goes a long way, specially if the pieces you're colouring in have black outlines.

This turned out great! You have such a talent for knocking this kind of thing out of the park. It's clear you spend a lot of time creating things. Bravo! I was thinking it might've been cool to have the floor section run at an angle with the bottom edge butting against the front of the glass and the top edge against the backdrop. Then you could have the characters' feet actually contact the floor instead of being completely floating. Also thanks for detailing your process so succinctly! I might do something like this as a gift for a friend, so it'll be convenient to reference this if I move on that. :)

Thanks! That's a great idea; I considered having the paper curve toward the front for that very thing, but it would have required a lot of force to hold it in place and generated some tension. By separating the railing, I think your angling idea would work quite well! Good luck with your project btw! :D

Great job! I did several papercrafts, who is a similar technique, and it looks just amazing. As an advice, you can contour with sharpies each piece by the edge, so in that way you avoid that unappealing white line. You'll need a black sharpie at least, but the ideal setup is having a sharpie of each primary and secondary color, and the most ideal is having A LOT of sharpies.

One thing that you can do is to use a black pencil to paint the paper edges black, it's a minor detail that can make the diference, for example on the characters that have the black outline would be cool to do that! Love your work it inspires me so much❤

Whoa it's so 3d, I can almost feel it!! 🤲😱 Seriously this is such an awesome project, it was really fun to watch the whole process as you documented it! I'd always pondered what techniques people used to space the elements in these shadow boxes, now I know foam is an easy & effective solution! 😁 Also the fact that you cut the sprites out by hand with a knife is very impressive!! the quality of the product looks great; I probably would've cut a few towers off the castle in the background and nicked a few fingers too, had I attempted something of this scale 😆

Hahaha thanks dude! Yeah I'm not sure if there's a 'meta' to this, but I took a stroll around the craft shop and the foam/glue situation seemed the most reasonable (and customizable)! Really curious about automated cutting solutions, although it did turn out to be quite a meditative activity ✨
