I have to buy a buncha products to get started, like a ream of 32 lb paper and an X-Acto knife. While I am waiting for those, I printed out Sibmer (my brother's character's name) on regular copy paper, greyscale:
Head!
Then I used my Neenah Solar White 80 lb paper that I use for MY paper crafting, in color:
Head!
Arm!
The 80 lb paper is a little heavy and difficult to maneuver the tiny pieces. The tutorial suggested that I use 32 lb. I see why.
The tutorial also suggested that I use a marker to color the white sides of the paper so you don't see any white; only color. It suggested a black marker. It's too stark, and although you probably can't see from the photos, I used the black marker on both of the heads. I tried talking my brother into buying me Copics. Hah!
I will what markers I already have... mostly Stampin' Up's Stampin' Write markers, and also a few Marvy LePlume II Markers. The arm piece has a Stampin' Up marker on the edge, and you can't tell! Not in the photo, not in real life! Success!
Anyway, that's pretty much it. Looks pretty easy so far, but I haven't gotten to the part where I have to assemble it all together! lawl.
