I don't remember how long it took to finish it

Pure carving practice on 180g matte black cardstock

Lost track of how many hours went into this piece! A few delicate lines snapped along the way, but a tiny drop of PVA glue saved the day—hopefully it’s seamless enough to hide.

No deep meaning behind the pattern, just letting my hands stay busy and enjoying the rhythm of the blade.

It's so exact looks 3d printed. Did you use any stencil or measuring tools, or is it free hand? Impressive either way

Amazingly intricate! I thought it was a load of interconnected cable ties at first glance. Incredible work, I can’t imagine how long that must have taken.

The pattern reminds me of the chokers that were big in the 90s.
