fairy-tale castle book alterationby =Nilanja

Favourite

Description Details Share

I have started this book alteration months ago...it took me ages ot finish. but now it is done and I am glad that I finalized it!
It is my first book alteration ever - and probably my last.
it was simply too much work...and I made too many beginners mistakes.
I started it because I have seen this book alteration and was so fascinated! I wondered if I am able to do this too...and so I did this^^

I will include it into a conceptual photo I think...but I am not sure how yet^^

hope you like it

Wow! What a brilliant idea. I just love the castle-out-of-book-concept, I guess that's how it's like to read fantasy-books, or, I can see "castle" as a symbol of creation itself, the kind of creation which happens when reading a book.

I'm facsinated of the fact that you actually made this thing, and at the same time it hurts my feelings to think about the book you destroyed to make it. May I ask which book you killed, or is it up to my own head?

Anyways, it looks gorgeous, and the book-three is the perfect little detail that completes the artwork.

I would love to see the background as deep red instead of dark blue, because I think that's more castle-ish and more creativity-ish, when it comes to symbols. Deep purple would also be quite cool, at least you should think about it.

What do you think?
