ideas? [22 Jul 2008|10:29pm] misledyouth00 [ music | hole. whatevs. ] i'm looking for ideas/suggestions, if anyone could help me out. i got white low top chucks the other day that are just way too plain for my taste. i'm debating about either stenciling black zebra stripes all over them or some sort of long but thinish picture around it. what would you do? and if you go with the picture, do you have any ideas for it? i'm about a size 6 1/2 in girls and they're low tops so it'd be a somewhat small, stretched out looking design. another one: anybody ever stencil on shoes before? any tips or anything? thanks! 4 comments|post comment

HELP?? [22 Jun 2008|08:03pm] hispanicsattack I have a question: I am running into this problem a lot lately, particularly when using WHITE PAINT on a BLACK SHIRT. I find that when i peel away the transparency, there is a gray outline on some parts of the stencil (appears to be some sort of bleeding). I use scotch 3m adhesive and FOLK ART (walmart) ACRYLIC PAINT. The transparency I am using is top of the line transparency (staples 20 sheets retails for about $30). DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY THIS IS HAPPENING? Is the paint too runny? Or, is it the transparency? Thanks Any solutions are much appreciated 8 comments|post comment

Yayay [26 May 2008|01:30am] raw_tourniquet  Another stencil i am super duper proud of. This is the first stencil i feel i can take TOTAL credit for, becuase i took the picture, turned it into a stencil, and then put it on a shirt. All other stencil's ive made in the past were either already stencil, or had just been lyrics.  ( have a looksee ) 5 comments|post comment

Hey There [15 May 2008|12:10am] adrunkencadence Hi stencil fiends! For a long time now I have taken a break from stenciling on clothing simply because I had lost inspiration for doing so, but two weeks ago I had that divine spark inspire a fantastic idea to accentuate a patch I am planning on sewing on to a hoodie I came to poses. The reason why I am posting is that this particular hoodie has/will have when completed significant meaning to me and I want a crisp, and clean, professional look to the finished product. In the past I simply used regular printer paper and a delicate hand for regular store bought spray paint. After three to five years, most of the shirts I created still look great - however the five year old one has faded greatly. So... what should I use to create that magnificence I'm looking for? Parchment paper? Waxed paper? Mylar - (The plastic sheets sold at most craft stores... I'm actually horrible at cutting this so maybe not?)? But more importantly what sort of paint should I procure? Could I use the spraypaint I have if only I use some high-quality spray adhesive? (The one I have hasn't worked as far as I can tell.) An example of what I am looking to accomplish, in terms of quality, is like this: ( Read more... ) Of course when I am done I will certainly share here! And explain why the hoodie would have such an important meaning to me that I would post a paragraphs worth of questions just to make this project perfect. 8 comments|post comment

[03 May 2008|01:14am] tehhilz  I've just started making my own stencils a few weeks ago and I am unsure if my finished product is useable for an actual garment. I read the rules and I don't think this is against them, but if it is I'm sorry. ( Question and picture under cut ) 2 comments|post comment

Grabbing Screenshots in OS X [23 Mar 2008|09:41am] bill_hood For those of us lucky enough to have decided to go with Apple Macintosh, there is a much underrated tool available for grabbing screenshots. The shortcuts to take screenshots in OS X are: * Apple + Shift + 3 - Creates a screenshot of the entire screen * Apple + Shift + 4 - Allows you to draw a window around the area on the screen you want to capture * Apple + Shift + 4 + Spacebar highlights the active Window. Then simply click the mouse for a screenshot of the active window This comes in handy to make a screenshot of your art created in any design program and email it to the client for quick approval. Very easy and absolutely free screen capture from the fine folks at Apple Computer. Enjoy! - Bill 1 comment|post comment
