Step 2: Characters(Print)...

We are making a action scene between IronMan and Loki..

We have used their CubeeCraft templates...

You can download them from here..Cubeecraft

You can try any character you want..

Just print the images and then cut out each part...

But if you have your action figure you can skip to step 7

Step 3: Characters(Head)...

After cutting out the head with the help of scissors

cut the slits with the help of a hobby knife..

Then fold the head to make a cube and tape it after making a cube..

Add extra things to the head if required...

Be Precise while doing this..

Step 4: Characters(Torso),(legs)...

Now Just like the head make this like a cuboid and tape it..

make sure to cut all the slits first..

Then do the same with the legs...

add extra paper to make the legs stronger...

now just push the legs into the torso and the torso into the head...

Now check that it should stand properly if not just balance it by adding paper to the correct side..

Step 5: Characters(Hands)...

Now Make the hands...

They Are complex so make them calmly and softly...

add extra things like swords, guns,etc....

now join the hands to the torso in right position...

see the pictures above for the guide...

Step 6: Characters (Finish)....

Add some sticks to the torso to move your character....

now paint the sticks to match them with the background...

you can customize your Cubeecraft TM by adding pivot pins to move hands or to rotate head...

Now as your characters are made you can now start with the background...

keep your characters in a safe place until you have completed...

In many action scenes heroes fire their blasters,etc....

You can make them by drawing these or just by searching the internet for these...

after printing these particles just cut out these sharply and paste them on sticks and paint the sticks to match them with the background....

use the video as a guide....

When you want to show that your hero is using his blaster just swing this behind him to make a visual look that he is firing a blaster...

be careful not to show your hands in the frame...

you can use this technique for many things life showing rising sun,

firing machine gun, swinging birds,or for moving your character,etc.....
