My bro was sending his old animation paper from college to be recycled so I thought I'd make use of it before it goes. This took sooo long to make the pieces and over an hour to assemble. The total pieces of paper used was around 1140 sheets of the animation paper.

Just thought I'd share :)

I did the exact same thing slightly more than a year ago. It was fun, but you really need to fortify the paper, otherwise it'll fall apart some day soon.
