Complete collection of folk paper-cutting patterns and rooster paper-cutting tutorials
The concept of increasing one’s official position to another has a long history. If you often look at some collections of folk paper-cut patterns, you should be able to notice that paper-cut roosters usually have a pattern of copper coins in the middle of the body. This is the comb plus copper coins, thus forming a homophonic concept of official plus official. The rooster paper-cut seen here is a relatively simple paper-cut pattern. It can even be said to be a pattern with a strong local configuration and is suitable for matching with more other related paper-cut elements.
1. Preparation work before paper-cutting. Since this is a relatively simple paper-cut rooster pattern, you can use ordinary paper to practice. If it is to be matched and combined with other paper-cut patterns, the paper requirements will be higher.
2. Drawing of the rooster paper-cut pattern. For the tracing operation, we can see that the image of such a paper-cut rooster is relatively distinct, so the difficulty of the operation is relatively low when tracing. Special attention should be paid to the configuration of the paper-cut flowers and plants under the body of the paper-cut rooster. It is recommended that beginners trace it and then cut it, because it is relatively difficult.
3. Rooster, flower and grass paper cutting tutorial instructions. As mentioned before, it is not too difficult to cut this rooster with an official rank. What is more difficult is the flowers and plants under its body. We can see that if you want to cut the leaf structure of flowers and plants to create a more natural fluttering feeling as shown in the picture, you need to use scissors to be more flexible and lighter, otherwise it will appear very stiff.
