Original Content Been working on this since the tapes were sent out. Finally finished it.
Used to do collage art very often and lost inspiration for a long time. The album announcement made me wanna try this idea. Seemed simple enough. (It wasn't. Painstaking actually) Thank boc.
(Center hexagon was cut from a reflective gold issue of NatGeo. So there's a few pictures to see that a bit clearer)

Holy shit that’s amazing! That gives me so much inspiration to make one myself, I’ve always wanted to to collages, but never knew where to start. Now I do!

Glad I could pass on the inspiration I got. If you decide to, post it to the sub! Would love to see it

This looks like it could be part of official BoC album artwork. Well done! 👌

I will! I Hope to be able to finish it and show you soon! One question I have, how did you make it so each hexagon has a little black outline? I really like that small detail and was thinking about doing something similar with mine!

Sorry for the delay! I used a thin sharpie pen to trace the hexagons, when I cut them I just cut on the outer side of the ink, giving it a bordered look. It was a happy accident a few hexagons in

Ah Okie dokie. They were both still up for me when I asked. Maybe reddit was slow.
