Millennium Falcon targetting computer Stencil

I made three of these stencils. I cut the stencil by hand. Was a little challenging since it was a straight computer graphic and had very straight lines. Here are the progress pics!


Started with three 20X24 canvas boards. The texture of the canvas seems to work well with the stencils and spray paint. Isn't as fussy as the super smooth wood I usually use for stencils. I laid the yellow down first.

Cat keeps biting and clawing my arm while I am trying to cut the stencil!

After some cat bites I finally finished the stencil. Ta-Da!

Here I went in and added the arrows that signify the tie fighers flying past. At this stage I also went in with white paint and touched up some bleeding that happened while adding the red paint.

Almost done.



Here is the finished one. I am varnishing the other one and its drying outside. And the third one didnt turn out well and reclaimed the painting for another project.

VHS tape collection

Here are some pics of my small vhs tape collection. I really love the Roger Corman ones such as Deathrace 2000, Humanoids from the Deep and Piranha. They're a lot of fun to watch. I wish that "lowbudget" film makers would still make movies like these. When I was a kid, I would constantly watch "From Star Wars to Jedi". I would also stare at the cover and really think hard about which one of the models I like the most. I would pretend that I could take one home. I think I always chose the Blockade Runner.
