I buy used skateboards to give to local neighborhood kids. Sometimes, the board is in too bad of shape. If they're salvageable I turn these into skateboard table / benches. This is a 2012 Mikemo Capaldi Girl Skateboard table. Acrylic spray paint on skateboard deck. Layered and clear acrylic resin.

Large stencils in Australia

6 Upvotes

I’d like to make a large stencil in Australia, but I’m really struggling to find an appropriate material.
I’d really like something that can roll up for ease reasons,
Does anyone have any ideas?
I’m thinking at least a metre, maybe 1.5 x 1.5.
Cheers. :)
Any help appreciated.

Smmoking mouse - smoking boy

57 Upvotes

I posted this stencil of a smoking boy on a forgotten city utility box a some year ago. Due to our administration’s obsession with keeping all city walls “hygienically” clean, it was eventually painted over - though not in a particularly thoughtful manner. I tried to remove the upper layer with Montana Remover, but that highly toxic chemical $hit ended up damaging the stencil itself.

The only option was to redefine the situation and incorporate the old motif into a new one, turning it into a kinda palimpsest.

Best method for cutting out a 10ft long stencil for a sign that will be painted 15ft up?

4 Upvotes

Hi!

I need to cut out this 10ftx2ft paper stencil so that I can have an easy way to paint the name of a restaurant up on the building's fascia. I'll need to climb a ladder and paint it but I'm not sure of the best way to cut it out and paint it.

Should I just cut out the whole letters and spray paint it? I worry about the paper warping and the paint bleeding

Any help would be appreciated

So these two types of stencils have different names

Thumbnail

21 Upvotes

Hi, I'm very new to stencils, and I was wondering if these two types of stencils have different names. The reason I'm asking is I ordered the one on the right thinking it would be more like the one on the left, and I don't know how to explain to the person I ordered from why it's not what I wanted. An outline and a fill-in, maybe? Because what I was looking for was a stencil that would leave the stencil I received would completely cover. I don't want to spray around it at all, I just want to leave that actual image.

Stencil on aged news clippings for a Kobe fan. 2015.

Created this about 11 years back.

I believe I made 5 layers for Kobe and 5 layers for the jersey.

I’d probably spray it a little differently if I were to paint it today

Non riesco a fare aderire bene gli stencil al foglio, ho provato tenendo con la mano lo stencil mentre coloro ma non veniva, l'unico modo che ho trovato finora è la colla removibile spray sullo stencil ma poi rimane appiccicoso anche il foglio e lascia uno strato di colla che poi non fa attaccare i colori successivi e crea questo alone di "bagnato" che è orribile, consigli?
