Spoiler Alert of Paper Clones Vs. the Multiverse of Madness by TheoryOfWeirdness
Spoiler Alert of Cloning Pains by Milky Boy Blue
Spoiler Alert of Gravity Falls
Yet another adaptation of well-written one-shot fanfic - it means it needs an explantion with spoilers!

There are a couple of fanfic writers from Gravity Falls fanbase I like and have a good realtionship with. Both explored characters in their own interesting ways with quality stories, and they managed to do a collaboration work. Milky Boy Blue wrote his own take on the second summer in Gravity Falls, Oregon, and there was a story titled Cloning Pains involving with paper clones such as Tracey and Quattro, as well as a couple of new ones like Wendy Two (a paper clone Wendy made in order to avoid from bring grounded) an Armbel (a paper arm Mabel made with a magic copier to demonstrate how it works in front of Soos). In the end, they found they were making troubles to their respective creators, deciding to leave their home dimension as they got themselves laminated with Ford's almost-indestructible laminator. As a collaboration, Theory wrote the afterwards where they met a cosmic entity during these laminated four paper clones' dimensional adventures - and ultimately gave Armbel a full-fledged body made of paper.

This one is motivated by a part of the oneshot I mentioned above; Armbel asked a cosmic entity give her a body with fifteen-year-old body. In this story, that shocked Tracey and Quattro since they couldn't think of such an idea, as she explained that she decided to take advantage of being a teenager without herself backfired by disadvantages. It was quite an enjoyable challenge to visualize Armbel with full-fledged paper vessel based on the description - to understand the difference between teal and turquoise, decide what items and details to give, and such.

I began with researching color palettes involving with teal and how to write letters on sweaters, to define the mental image I could imagine from the written format. Then I agonized over details such as skirts - I tried to avoid making her merely a stretched version of a preteen one. Meaning I tested some changes to minor details, such as deciding on a type of skirt. I also considered some alterations such as giving her boots or long socks instead of leggings, and even the length of the leggings itself as well as patterns to use. But in the end, I kept the overall familiarity instead of making a big change.

But, I think I can be proud of...I managed to make Armbel semi-decent in overall. At least make her look likeable. And not making her too skinny - considering Mabel's appetite and how energetic & strong she was in twelve, I don't think she wouldn't be too skinny. Yeah, that's something.
