Lately everything feels AI generated… so I wanted to share something fully handmade.
This piece is part of a project called “Big First Times,” where every month has an important event represented by a sculpture made 100% with paper. No prompts, no models, just pencils, ink and a lot of patience.
It’s nice to slow down sometimes and create something the old way.
Curious to hear what you think!
Wow this is incredible! They remind me of the creations for stop-motion movies. I love watching them because I'm always so fascinated by all the tiny, meticulous details. This is super impressive.
it looks so good I would have thought its AI generated
Thanks! If you'd like to check the rest of the months, you can have a look here :) https://www.behance.net/gallery/23463421/Grandes-Primeras-Veces
Dude, I'd love to see something like this on a billboard! This project was commissioned by a big printing company to use for a promotional calendar. Definitely looking forward to creating more stuff in this line.
Incredible! Love those colors
These handmade sculptures are stunning, and seeing something crafted the old-school way is so refreshing! I’d honestly love to have a piece like this in my home, it’s beautiful. 🤌
Impressive craftsmanship - the detail and care in every piece make this refreshingly authentic.

I’m a little late to the party with this one, but when you’re building a living, breathing AI with a short fuse, you don’t rush the process.
Designers, we’ve all been there: The logic is flawless. The grid is perfect. Then... the feedback arrives. "Can we make it more... blue-ish?"
Inner Designer is my latest experimental project that says what you can't. Built with Figma Make, a live backend, and an AI brain that actually understands design theory, it doesn’t just design—it defends.
The Hook: It explains its choices.
The Twist: It has a breaking point.
The Result: Push it too far with bad revisions, and the UI literally melts into frustration.
It’s part tool, part therapy, and a little too real.

Great addition to marathon, hope you win something ❤️
Your design has a rhythm. Your conscience has a sound. 🎶✨
1-2 Sentence Description: I built Tempo Architect using Figma Make to reimagined the act of digital creation as a collective musical performance. In this 3D spatial voxel grid, every block you place—representing a core cultural value like Sustainability or Fair Trade—becomes a unique 8-bit note in a real-time, shared Symphony of Intent.
3D Spatial Building: Construct a collective mural on an infinite 3D grid.
Collective Conscience: Join hundreds of other designers—visible through real-time "face-piles"—to reach 100% alignment and unlock your "Informed Creation".
Design isn't just about what we see; it's about the harmony we build together. 🌐🕹️
