I think i'm hooked by this stencil thing now!
This is my second take at making a stencil, if you want to see my firts attempt, just check my previous two blogs.
This time around I used a better medium- a cardboard folder, so there were no surprises as in the case of the fabrick of my travel suitcase.
1. We pick an balls-to-the-wall awesome image. Edward Norton from fight club (I hope that some of you thought it would be Edward Cullen from the title and now feel like idiots )
2. Transform my laptop into an animators desk.
3. Take a pen and copy the image on a cover film as used to cover children's books for school.
4. Cut it! Thanks to CM's advice from the previous blog, I got myself some X-acto knifes and it was much nicer than a razor blade.
5. Glue the individual parts on the medium and then isolate with a frame, probably a preference, but I think sharp edges look neater than sprayed edges...
6. Do the spraying... several layers.
7. Wait like a small kid is waiting for its Christmas presents for the paint to dry out and remove the cover film.
Awesomeness!!
PS: I didn't put the "FUCK YOU" on it because it's a birthday present for a lady friend and I couldn't be asked to explain myself... not worth it
... I love it, hope she'll like it too and yeah wait for more stencils from me in the near future.
