The saying that tigers click on butterflies has been around for a long time, which is why we can see many tiger paper-cut patterns in the collection of paper-cut patterns. The images of tigers and butterflies often appear together. In ancient times, peoples physical resistance was relatively weak and medicine was relatively underdeveloped, so many people suffered from diseases. At the same time, because all the objects in the home were made of wood, fires were easy to occur. Since people believe that tigers can drive away disease and fire, they are willing to pray to tigers. In the process of the development of such a concept, people felt that the liveliness of butterflies could better mobilize the activity of tigers, so the saying "tiger butterflies" gradually came into being.
1. Preparation work before making the tiger butterfly paper-cutting. This is not a simple paper-cut production. From the complexity of the pattern, I believe everyone can feel that there are many places that need to be cut. Therefore, it is recommended to prepare paper with relatively strong toughness for complex carvings. Have a carving knife ready if needed.
2. Tracing of tiger butterfly paper-cut pattern. As tracing is a crucial step in making complex paper-cutting, when you are tracing, you can directly replace the stripes on the tigers body with a single line. This is easier than directly drawing wide lines and then cutting them.
3. Specific paper-cutting tutorial tips. As mentioned before, the difficulty of this paper-cut pattern lies in the cutting of the pattern structure of the body. If you want to cut this pattern structure well, it is difficult to grasp the thickness of the stripes. We will describe the pattern in the previous section. On the basis of the lines drawn at the time, the width can be appropriately relaxed to achieve better results. However, the width itself requires a lot of experience to operate well.
