I used to hate modern pop-up books, there is a lot of pop but less art. Most people do the art first then have a paper engineer design and cut the pop-up structure. I do the opposite, I cut the structure first (usually very simple) and then hand draw on top of that. So it is art that pops up. Each section 1 -8 getting more complex, hand-cut, hand-drawn, hand die cut and in pen and X-acto knife only. Copies printed, but each hand-cut. Simple makes easy beauty.
