Year of the Snake paper-cutIn the process of production, we can appreciate many unique shapes. The paper-cut snake pattern is mainly because the image of the snake itself is relatively simple. This may cause some questions. For example, some friends may ask that the image of a dragon is very similar to the image of a snake. Why are there so many paper-cutting tutorials and paper-cutting patterns about dragons? In fact, this is the case. The main reason is that as a divine creature in peoples imagination, the image itself is not completely fixed, so paper-cut pattern creators can create various types of paper-cut dragon images according to their own needs, and snakes themselves are very common in nature. The image of animals is relatively fixed in peoples minds, so it is difficult to design a paper-cut snake with a strong sense of creativity.

This Year of the SnakePaper-cutSnake The pattern looks very unique and distinctive in structure, mainly reflected in its pattern structure. In the past, we could also appreciate the rich texture and structure of the paper-cut snakes body in many paper-cut snake patterns. However, the interior of the paper-cut snakes body like todays is completely completed by the combination of plum blossoms, which is indeed rare. This not only increases the beauty of the paper-cut snake, but also increases the difficulty of making the paper-cut snake. Because of this paper-cut pattern design, the pattern of the paper-cut snake looks as if it was stamped through a seal. The unique structure adds to the artistic beauty of this paper-cut snake. Through some simple flower and plant patterns, the paper-cut snake is more complete in configuration. At the same time, the blank part in the middle of the body is also well filled, making it look more beautiful and textured.


Now let’s take a look at how to cut this paper-cut snake, which is very unique in shape and pattern:


1. First, you need to prepare basic paper-cutting materials. Since the internal texture of this paper-cut snake is relatively complex, the unique pattern has slightly higher requirements for paper. Paper with better toughness is more suitable for making paper-cuts with complex internal textures. Some paper-cutting beginners may also need to use a carving knife, so the toughness of the paper becomes even more important at this time.


2. Tracing of the paper-cut snake pattern. This paper-cut snake is relatively simple in appearance and structure, so when tracing, first draw the outer outline of the paper-cut snake through simple drawing. However, the pattern inside the paper-cut pattern is a little complicated. When drawing the specific drawing, you can use the method of drawing a circle to mark its location first, and then in the subsequent specific cutting and carving operations, the plum blossoms structure is revealed.


3. Paper-cut snakePaper-cut tutorial Operational tips. When it comes to tailoring, the actual operation is basically the same as the previous drawing sequence and spirit. That is to say, we first construct the shape of the paper-cut snake through simple cutting, and then perform some cutting operations on the inside. If you are not very good at using scissors to complete the pattern cutting operation inside the paper-cut snake, you can use a carving knife. In fact, this is also a common method in paper-cut making.
