Foxfold Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 A Sam Custodio pattern that I must confess I'll probably never do again. This has taken a while as I had to walk away every few 'strips' as it made my eyes go funny, but I was determined to finish it. It's just off the saw so no backer or finish on it yet.

Fedido Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 Excellent work and I can see why it took so long. Patience is not only admirable, but produces exquisite results. Foxfold 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 I would not go to so much effort to do that of a celebrity but I love the concept and you did an amazing job with it. I would love to have patterns like that for portraits of family or my dogs. It is really neat. RabidAlien 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just found the pattern intriguing. I think pattern makers are amazing in general. Old Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we're confessing, I'll admit to clicking on the thread and expecting to see a detailed cutting of a pile of poo. LOL Someone did a pattern of a classic pickup truck done in this same style, can't remember who it was (it was a while ago), but I asked and they said they used GIMP but instead of using the Photocopy filter, they used "newsprint" or something like that.

LOL You are wicked It's not politically correct to talk about a lady like that But I must admit the 'pattern' is, to my mind, quite ingenious. I wouldn't mind finding some more, with different subjects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I must admit that halfway through this I did question my sanity for starting it I found the secret was lots and lots of tape !! Every couple of lines, I kept the cut outs in place with tape and in the end you could see nothing but tape.... it could have been King Kong under there and you'd never know.!! I then sanded the back side before I took the tape off as I didn't want any 'bits' to go pinging across the shop amazingkevin and RabidAlien 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabidAlien Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 Sam Custodio has a ton of patterns over on FB, he's got a bunch of optical illusions on there, trust me its easier to cut them while staring through a magnifier, as you only see a small portion at a time. amazingkevin and Foxfold 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie E Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 First let me say you did a wonderful job on that! For some reason those make me feel a little icky, like shirts that are printed so they'll look out of focus. Kind of makes me feel nauseous but at the same time I can't stop looking.
