Distressed vintage looking robot wallet. I guess that's how I'd describe it.

Yeah that's awesome. Did you airbrush the robot?

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.
