#paperchildren

Old stuff from 2013! We had this idea of making little cutout pokémon ("paperchildren") of, like, all the first generation. And this is what happened!

We're not posting all of them, but yeah, they were a lot.

Mixed pokémon collection.

Started this like 1-2 months ago and I FINALLY got around to finishing and rearranging it!!

I was gifted markers not too long ago, and man I can’t believe how much fun they are to just whip out and draw with!!! I used to use them a ton as a kid, but I haven’t really used them as much these past few years, so it felt good drawing with them again!! So I decided to combine that piece of nostalgia with another piece of nostalgia!

Anyone familiar with older DeviantART may know where I’m coming from, but to those who don’t know, paperchildren are paper cutouts of characters that are drawn, cut out, and arranged in a way to make them look like they’re interacting with the environment around them! There were a ton of these back in the day (little me even made a few of my own), so I thought I’d bring a resurgence to paperchildren! Don’t mind me, just making it feel like the 2000’s and early 2010’s again!

Drew these with my bestie, @isaasomnia!
