1, paper-cut sample (Figure 2)

The appearance of the cloth tiger is handed down from the older generation, and artists have all kinds of tiger pillows. For skilled artists, they will keep these images in mind and can cut samples at will when making.

The appearance of a tiger pillow is generally composed of body, abdomen, eyes, nose and mouth. Specifically, there are two tiger bodies, one tiger abdomen, three tiger eyes, one tiger nose, two tiger eyebrows and one tiger mouth.

2. Mounting cloth (Figure 3, Figure 4) Mounting cloth is to paste the cloth of the required color on the paper-cut pattern. The method is as follows: firstly, the cloth is laid flat on the table, the paper pattern is coated with paste, and the paste side is attached to the cloth, and then compacted to make the surface of the cloth smooth and wrinkle-free. Then cut along the pattern. Unexpectedly, it is necessary to leave an edge about one centimeter wider than the pattern on the edge, and then cut an opening every two to three centimeters in the wide part. Then, paste is coated on the cut cloth teeth and pasted on the pattern. After pasting, you can scrape it back along the edge with scissors to ensure the edge is neat.

Use the above method to complete the following parts:

(1) Take a red cloth and paste two tiger corpses;

(2) Take a piece of white cloth and put it on the tiger's stomach;

(3) Three layers of tiger eyes, with white, red and black cloth (black hollowed out) respectively;

(4) mounting the tiger nose on the white cloth;

(5) The tiger's mouth is inlaid with powder;

(6) Tiger eyebrows are framed with blue cloth.

Methods of making "Five Poisons": Generally, there are geckos, scorpions, centipedes, snakes and spiders. Although the shapes are different, the basic production methods are similar. Let's take gecko production as an example. (Figure 4, Figure 5, Figure 6)
