I’ll admit right off the bat this idea came from an old promotional piece from French Paper that I absolutely loved (thanks for your help, Buff).
But I printed it on Durotone Steel Grey (paper from French Paper) so that’s all okay, right?
Anyhow, I had a great time figuring out how to make it all work (a lot harder than I thought it would be), and am pleased to say for the most part that it does. Cut him up and see for yourself.
And while I was unable to make it to the show (traveling back from Ohio University’s Inkahoots) I heard it was amazing!
ps- it’s available now over in the shop!
