A fan of Animal Crossing: New Horizons has recently shared that they have crafted a beautiful 3D shadowbox art piece based on the Nintendo life sim. Using scenarios with the playable Animal Crossing: New Horizons villager placed on the title's iconic deserted island, the game's community will likely enjoy the love and care that the artist put into their crafted piece.
The Animal Crossing series is no stranger to fan art and content. Given the series' longevity in the game industry, it is not surprising for fans to make original content inspired by their favorite Animal Crossing features. When the Nintendo Switch title was released back in 2020, the online community came alive online, posting pieces they have made about the life sim. And up to now, Animal Crossing: New Horizons fan pieces such as this 3D shadowbox art continue to be shared by the community members with each other on the internet.
On Reddit, user reddragondesigns posted several images of the 3D shadowbox art that they had created. In the images, two Animal Crossing: New Horizons villagers are seen sitting beside each other on some of the game's Stone stools. The setting of the photos seem to be some part of the player's deserted island that is surrounded by water and tulips. What is interesting about the piece is that the artist has stacked several copies of the whole scene together, creating that beautiful 3D effect. Placing the whole artwork in a black deep-set photo frame added to the shadowbox effect as well.

Comments on the Reddit thread shared how fellow Animal Crossing: New Horizons fans were very impressed by reddragondesigns' work. One reply expressed their surprise when they found out that the piece was made out of paper. The artist replied to this comment, sharing that they had used several layers to complete the shadowbox art. According to the Redditor's profile, they have much experience in making these types of 3D pieces. Some of their 3D shadowbox artwork feature other video game titles such as Overcooked, Pokemon, and The Legend of Zelda.
With so many features and villagers found in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it is possible that reddragondesigns will make more 3D shadowbox art based on the life sim. Fans of the video game are likely hoping that the artist will not forget to post and share their work online, especially since they make such unique pieces that all Animal Crossing: New Horizons players will probably love.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is available for Nintendo Switch.
