Not that I need a new art project, but I do have a lot of paper lying around and some spare LED strips in need of a home, and these are pretty captivating… 🤩
omg thank you sooooo much, I was literally scrambling trying to figure out how to make these for an assignment but couldnt figure out what they were called. This was extremely helpful I appreciate you so much!!!
i made one of these for a friend as a christmas present, it was Harry Potter themed and she liked it a lot, i used laser cut thick paper, same as you, used foamboard that i cut by hand using a cutter, i glued the layers with double sided sticky tape and LED strip for the light then framed it together using a store bought deep frame, turned out well, so well in fact that i made a 2nd one for myself , same image, since i had the parts cut 2 times just in case i made some mistakes the first time
Enjoyed is not the word, I was Trilled to see how you make those, it is so wonderful, thank you so much for showing us, you're awesome, btw, please forgive my bad English, I'm French, take care xo
Thank you so much. I don't currently but I will in the future. I'm planning on setting up an online store and selling them there, I just have to figure it all out
@@gilang9451 I don't have a specific brand of paper, I just use whatever cardstock they have at Walmart. But the thicker the paper the better. You can usually buy a big package in the office section. I believe my paper is usually 80 GSM but I'll have to double check. You can even try watercolor paper but you have to make sure you have strong enough lights
Thank you. It really does depend. I would say the more space between the better itlooks cause it has the depth. But ultimately it's up to you. I use foam board from hobby lobby and they have many different thicknesses. I like the half inch thick ones.
It's a little difficult to explain but you have to imagine the image in a 3d scene. You have to see what is in the distance, what is up close, what is behind or in front of what. And you create layers with the subjects of your image on the layers and when you stack them you place them in order from back to front. I don't actually plan out anything in the software, I just visualize it. Hope this helps!
I don't have left over. I buy the 6ft strips and it all fits in the box behind the paper if I wrap it around multiple times. It gives extra light which is good.😁
Hey, Im currently using 176 GSM and it's 65 lbs paper, but I always use different ones. It doesn't matter too much as long as it's not too thin or thick like watercolor paper.
You take your picture and to figure out where you want the layers to be you have to look at the picture and see where the parts of the image are seperate, if that makes sense. For example you have a picture of trees. The tree closest to the camera will be on a layer. The trees behind it will be another. The trees behind that will be another. Etc.
No. You have to seperate it in your head and look at the picture in a way where you can pick it apart. If you can look at the picture and visualize the depth of it it becomes easy. I don't know how to describe it exactly cause I'm used to looking at things from that perspective so it seems natural. There might be some app or program to seperate images but if there is I've never heard of it.
It's definitely possible. The key is finding paper big enough. I would recommend finding paper that's the size you want and then making a border around the paper and then you can cut your foam board to the right lengths. I made a big lightbox for my animation project so you can check it out to see how I did it there. I don't have templates currently but I'm planning on making some

Thanks. I think it's worth giving it a shot😁
The idea of adding shadows and details in the painting is incredible ! Thanks for the tip !
Thank you so much. I hope it helps❤️😁

Enjoyed is not the word, I was Trilled to see how you make those, it is so wonderful, thank you so much for showing us, you're awesome, btw, please forgive my bad English, I'm French, take care xo
Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed!
wow that’s hella cool super intricate!!
Thank you so much
Thank you so much for sharing!
So clever how you are using a real picture to figure out layers and designs
Thanks, yeah it makes it easier to do things
It's not that hard bro, if you are artistic.
Hello, it looks so cool!
Thanks for your efforts. 😻
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoy!
These are so prettyyy 🤍🤍
Thank you!
thanks, really loved it...but can you also teach us how to make boxes? love your works
Thanks. I will do a video about it at some point, I'm just not making boxes at the moment but I will get to it😁
I love the art yo do!! Congrats!!! Do you sell the templates? It would be fun to make them
Thank you so much. I don't currently but I will in the future. I'm planning on setting up an online store and selling them there, I just have to figure it all out
@@lightboxlifewhat type of paper do you use? and what is the grammage of your paper (gsm)

Stunning
Thank you! 😊
You're awesome!
Thank you😁
How many layers in between each paper that you see should there be does it all depend or do you just get a feel for it. Awesome video btw!
Thank you. It really does depend. I would say the more space between the better itlooks cause it has the depth. But ultimately it's up to you. I use foam board from hobby lobby and they have many different thicknesses. I like the half inch thick ones.
Paper woodbox cutter glue cardstock paper thick enough to stand up thin enough to let the light shine in. Sketching paper take lighting and shadows
Yep. Pretty easy😁
Really good video! ❤
Thank you❤️
Can you give a more detailed break down of establishing the individual layers from each image in the software?
It's a little difficult to explain but you have to imagine the image in a 3d scene. You have to see what is in the distance, what is up close, what is behind or in front of what. And you create layers with the subjects of your image on the layers and when you stack them you place them in order from back to front. I don't actually plan out anything in the software, I just visualize it. Hope this helps!
Thank you how do you use left over led strips?
I don't have left over. I buy the 6ft strips and it all fits in the box behind the paper if I wrap it around multiple times. It gives extra light which is good.😁
Make anime light box it will be cool
It's on my list😁
what is that you are using to bring up photos? It that a art tablet? thx
It's just a samsung tablet. It's one of the more expensive ones but the cheaper ones work fine as well.
thanks

hi! for the cardstock paper what is the gsm that you used? i searched up cardstock paper but i got overwhelmed huhu idk which to choose;(
Hey, Im currently using 176 GSM and it's 65 lbs paper, but I always use different ones. It doesn't matter too much as long as it's not too thin or thick like watercolor paper.
How do you seperate the pictures into layers?
You take your picture and to figure out where you want the layers to be you have to look at the picture and see where the parts of the image are seperate, if that makes sense. For example you have a picture of trees. The tree closest to the camera will be on a layer. The trees behind it will be another. The trees behind that will be another. Etc.
But how did you separate them and make them layers? Does your tablet just do that for you?
No. You have to seperate it in your head and look at the picture in a way where you can pick it apart. If you can look at the picture and visualize the depth of it it becomes easy. I don't know how to describe it exactly cause I'm used to looking at things from that perspective so it seems natural. There might be some app or program to seperate images but if there is I've never heard of it.
And if I have it visualized I can copy it onto paper and make the layers easily. Hope this helps!😁
I want to make a bigger size light box around 50x80cm. Is it possible? If yes I should I proceed? Is there any template available?
It's definitely possible. The key is finding paper big enough. I would recommend finding paper that's the size you want and then making a border around the paper and then you can cut your foam board to the right lengths.

Hiii, I genuinely want to ask. What size do u use for the papers?
Hey. I use just normal sized paper. 8.5 inches by 11 inches
@@lightboxlife thank youu
Which app did you use for separating picture?
I thinks it's ibispaint
It is!
😊❄ 💙.
😁
👍
😁
Not me going to start a new project when I have 5 other unfinished project lying around 🤡
Haha. I feel the same😁
Be careful with setting paper in front of lights, crafters! That's an easy fire in many situations.
Very beautiful art.
Thanks. I am very careful. I use LED light strips and they don't touch the paper at all😁
