David and I are loving our e-bikes and spend hours on beautiful days exploring the hilly and forested terrain of Connecticut. I have been thinking about shadow boxes that feature the experience of riding but not just e-bikes - any type of bike and from that idea grew my new Easy Rider Shadow box series.
My first design was created from tracing photographs of David and myself on our e-bikes. We took the photos and I imported them into Illustrator. I traced the outlines carefully and used that tracing to create the silhouettes. Even though they lack detail they clearly look like us.
I then continued with this concept to make a file that allowed the crafter to insert any of 4 different riders into the scene. The download comes with a male cyclist, a female cyclist, a single guy on a motorcycle and a couple on a motorcycle all cruising through the mountains.
The download includes all four riders and and the individual layer 1 needed for each. You can easily swap in the rider you want to make.
The download file is here. It is $4.59 for all four files together.
The online tutorial is here complete with a video showing the easy assembly process.
