Nice illusion. :bigthup
It's seems like a concave image of the face or something like that.

What would be cool is finding templates to these to print these out for ourselves for folding; maybe even a GIMP preset to make them. lol

There is a link but I couldn't get it to work so I found this, Amazing T. rex illusion (make your own).
Three templates are below the YouTube video.

Thanks for that Lyle - I love optical illusions. A lot of them only work in 2D so a camera is essential because you only have one lens whereas stereoscopic vision would prevent the illusion from occurring.
