CATDOLL: Tech geeks are so scary! Japanese fans hand-carve LL engraving poster

In ancient times, there were no printing presses or copiers. If you wanted to print a large number of books, you needed to carve the text in the book in reverse on a wooden board, then apply ink, and press hard to make the corresponding text appear. This is the so-called woodblock printing, which later gradually developed into movable type printing and so on.

This woodblock printing process still exists today, but due to the significant improvement in printing technology, this time-consuming and labor-intensive old craft is more often used to produce works such as ink prints.

Recently, a Japanese "Love Live!" fan spent nearly two days carving out the "Love Live!" theater poster with amazing patience and perseverance, which made the audience feel full of love.

According to the description, this fan spent a total of 37 hours to make the master version of this theater poster. Because it is a woodblock printing, the text on the master version and the shapes of the ladies must be the reverse mirror image of the poster, which is a great test of the maker's carving skills and patience.

Woodblock prints made by tech geek fans

I believe that when making this master, every cut made by this tech geek must have been filled with deep love...

After the master is engraved, just dip the ink and press it lightly on the paper, and the image of the young ladies will appear on the white paper. The black and white poster is not only beautiful, but also has a special retro atmosphere, as if people are seeing the blackboard paintings they saw every day in school when they were in elementary school.
