The Omnibus of Crime

 

The Omnibus of Crime is a detective story-inspired paper sculpture created using multiple techniques, including paper mache, braiding, carving, patterning, and structural assembly.

Elements include: classic Sherlock detective's cap, paper mache pipe, paper fountain pen, and the original book with carved footprint details along the sides

All materials (outside of adhesives) used to create this piece were sourced from the book The Omnibus of Crime, which also exists as an element of the final sculpture.
