Let it Stig, Let it Stig, Let it Stig

[ldhenson]

Some say he'll freeze your pipes solid if you don't leave the water running, and that you shouldn't eat him when he's yellow.





Closer to real size:



Another folded paper + scissors cut. Surprisingly, the hardest part--even more than the cutting itself--was settling on a workable shape. The Stig in true silhouette is just a big blob. And I'm not having no blobby Stig on my snowflakes.

Flake is 8.5" wide.

Happy Stigsmas everybody!


Last year's thingy

..that's Chuck Norris ;)

[causewayy.livejournal.com]

There was a post over at top_gear a while back, where someone made a parallel between Chuck and the Stig.
I think that's what she was referring to.

Correct me if I'm wrong, Sides.

[waysides.livejournal.com]

you saw that one too? Had me laughing for hours.

Yeah, that was what I meant.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Hee, thanks!

[emmacmf.livejournal.com]

OMG,that is shockingly awesome and you need to e-mail this to the show!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks. I did e-mail them last year's flake ages ago :-)

[swordznsorcery.livejournal.com]

It's a Stigflake! That's brilliant. I love how you've added the body detail.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you! The body details really were quite tricky to figure since I'm cutting through 12 layers, and I can't make any purely internal cuts. But I'm happy how it turned out!

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Yep...cog, gear, wheel, exactly what I was going for. Thanks!

[pippinmctaggart.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! Brilliant! Who needs snow when you've got THAT!? *clap clap!!*

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't mind snow so much if it were really like this!

[planttastic.livejournal.com]

i think for the first time since i was 5, you've made me actually like snowflakes! these are fantastic in so many ways.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you! They're just so much fun to experiment with, and I don't really know what they look like until I finally open them up.

[redqueenofevil.livejournal.com]

That's pretty awesome! I can't even cut in a straight line.

[ldhenson.livejournal.com]

Thank you.
