    Hy there! I got a problem with my work. My idea was to make a portrait. So i folded lot of paper pieces and then i started to glue them on a pasteboard. Everything went fine, but the pasteboard started to be wavy. In the future it will cause a big problem becuase there will be huge waves. Anybody has any idea how to fix my problem?

    • Hmm I have no idea how you can fix that, Maybe if you did glue some pieces on, lay something heafy on it and let it dry. I have no idea if it will work..
      good luck! and I hope you can find a way!

      • The first thing i want to try is to iron it throught a cloth. If this thing will not work i will try this one too. Thanks for the idea.

        • I have no idea if ironing will work. because it already wavy, and you cant get pasteboard easely flat anymore.. but maybe it works, I love to hear that from you! good luck!

    • the ironing it could be a bad idea but u never know, but do it with a cloth that its a lil humid. the best way to do projects like this is to build it up on a desk thast way it wil be straight .BUT…… there comes the other problem that not all triangles r the same shape , so for this problem i would reccomend to make the portait with inverted pieces, that way it will be smoother and straight. but ofcourse u will have to glue every piece, its a pain in the ass i know thas what i did on my raptor and dragon :S gd luck and hope i helped a bit

      • thanks for the advice, it can be helpful, but the problem that i have glued a bigger part. I would have asked for help… 🙁
        Anyway, I hope it won’t be so bad…
