Members Hi Im Joe Posted July 18, 2014 Members Report Posted July 18, 2014 Yeah that's awesome. Did you airbrush the robot? Quote http://www.sevenhillsleather.com/
Members JoeSnuffie Posted July 18, 2014 Author Members Report Posted July 18, 2014 No airbrush, I used a stencil and weak vinegaroon. I used a cotton swab to dab it on, barely damp so there's no bleeding especially around the edges of the stencil. It takes a few passes but if you're careful, you have a wonderfully crisp image. I did it this way to prevent any rub off or bleeding because I knew I'd be rubbing it pretty rough to give it a distressed look. It also has a really cool raised effect, I guess caused by the chemical reaction. You can't see it but the inside of the shell has two robots as well. Quote
Members Hi Im Joe Posted July 18, 2014 Members Report Posted July 18, 2014 That's an awesome technique! Quote http://www.sevenhillsleather.com/
