In order to make a sincere and original gift for his girlfriend, a Russian young man made a portrait using thumbtacks and gave it to his girlfriend. The character in it is of course his girlfriend! Let’s take a look at the finished product first. Rendering, can you see that this is made of thumbtacks?!
Secretly select photos of your girlfriend.
Then print the photo in six colors at the size you want. Six colors: white, yellow, green, red, blue, black.
Prepare a large enough fiberboard and 300 boxes (300 pcs/box) of push pins.
It took two days to organize the thumbtacks of different colors into categories. At the same time draw these grids on the fiberboard.
Then use an awl to punch holes in the nodes of these meshes.
Let’s take a look at the awl he used. It should be relatively easy to use.
It took him three weeks to drill the holes manually.
The area of ????hair was so large that in order to get enough black thumbtacks, he had to spray some with paint himself.
If the push pins of other colors are not enough, you can also spray paint them yourself.
Complete status after four days.
Another four days...
Another four days passed.
After about a month, it was finally completed!
It’s really made of pushpins one by one.
In order to be more beautiful, of course it needs to be framed~
Wow, the overall effect was great, his girlfriend must have loved it... except, this cute guy collapsed from exhaustion.
