Description
Considering that I have little time here, let's begin this little story.
Well, it's no secret that I joined DeviantART to show many of my papercraft work and share experiences and models with other papercrafters.
Before joining deviantART, and before doing papercraft, I did some drawing, and a little clay sculpture, but never managed to improve a lot in these two arts. It was until I found papercraft models, I began to explore this art and I was completely in love.
The first models I assembly were a lot of work for me, was it a mental challenge to complete, It took me about 6 days to finish my first model. Still I didn't give up.
I began to see how I could improve the finish of the figures and fulfill the dream that I always had: Having a large collection of amazing collectible figures!
It took several years for me to perfect this technique of converting papercrafts in Collectible figures. But during that time I watched a lot of inspiring works of artists here on DeviantART , in sculpture, painting, or papercraft. It helped a lot to give me an idea of what I could achieve as a modeller.
Later I joined into a forum for papercraft modelers IRP . I really adore all that the community from IRP because they helped me to much to polish all these techniques, giving me advice, insights, and encouragement to continue this hobby.
Much later (4 years to be exact) I decided to join DeviantART, to make a compilation of all the work I had done over the years. And this was a total BOOM!
I started to surprise me with many works presented here, I had the opportunity to exchange a few words with the creatives responsible for creating papercraft models that I love.
I have met many talented people around the world and all this in only 9 months (if I had been pregnant, this would be the celebration of the birth of my baby)
I never really thought that so much liked my work, and I am happy to share with you.
Revealing the secrets of papercraft ~(/*A*)/Thank you for +8000 Pageviews and +100 watchers!
Well I don't know where to begin to describe how happy I am for so many visits , for all my watchers :+devwatch:, for all your comments , for adding my work to your favorites , for gifts , for the tips , and for the friendship of many of you . I must say that many of you are incredibly artistic and talented, I have astonished at the work of you and I am very happy that you like what I do :happybounce:.
I had planned to do a raffle to celebrate and to thank my first 100 watchers , but I don't like to have watchers in exchange for a few points , or an exclusive gift (not to say I don't hav
So Happy Birthday DeviantART! And that you continue to surprise us with art for many years!
