Animated Papercraft

This kind of thing amazes me every time. Intricate, miniature designs, carefully crafted by hand. This one is called PAPERCRAFT. You’d think they would produce this polygon look with the help of a 3D modelling software, but this is all made from handcut, shaped and moulded paper.

My own humble origami skills do not go beyond folding papers cranes and other animals, and though I know my way round sharp objects like scissors and japanese cutters, THIS is pure passionate art. I admit to getting goosebumps from watching this makin-of video every time.

You can see more of this and other award winning, awe-inspiring work like Montblanc’s Winter Tale on the artist’s homepage: www.danielaleitner.com

Quote: Some humans would do anything –

“Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying ‘End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH’, the paint wouldn’t even have time to dry.”
― Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time
