Then I spray-painted the bottom of my hoodie and made Boyfriend pose with it on.
I sent it to Warren a while ago, but he never got it :(
So here it is:

(my hair is so long right now that the logo needed to be that low)

And the detail:

I just used regular ol' krylon spray paint. I've washed it a couple times and is still there. But I don't wash my hood all the time, so I don't know how much it might endure.

It's a stencil using fabric paint (for the lenses) over a bleach-job using this stuff called "discharge paste," which does amazing bleach effects without harming the fabric and has the worst name EVAR.

Too bad it's too tight on me at this point. Which means I need to make another one. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=81924#Comment_81924 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=81924#Comment_81924 Sun, 07 Sep 2008 00:50:17 -0700 David Matthew http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=81947#Comment_81947 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=81947#Comment_81947 Sun, 07 Sep 2008 03:30:24 -0700 Brandon Seifert

From the website, "a reducing agent for safely removing color from natural fibers, and is even safe on silk. It removes most fiber reactive dyes, direct dyes, and acid dyes. It is thick enough to block print, brush it on, screen it on, stencil it on, etc. You can apply the paste to your fabric, let it dry and steam it with a steam iron or steam in a steamer for 10 minutes or so, until it stops discharging."

It's good shit -- easy to work with, not caustic, and produces GREAT results. I got that nice gray tone to Spider's figure because the shirt I used is a 50/50 cotton/poly blend, and discharge paste only works on natural fibers; if it's been 100% cotton I would've gotten that orange color you always get from bleach on cotton. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82292#Comment_82292 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82292#Comment_82292 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 15:00:27 -0700 diello http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82310#Comment_82310 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82310#Comment_82310 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 16:05:58 -0700 DonburiBoy http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82353#Comment_82353 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82353#Comment_82353 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 21:29:31 -0700 diello http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82358#Comment_82358 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82358#Comment_82358 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 21:43:00 -0700 trini_naenae http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82359#Comment_82359 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82359#Comment_82359 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 21:45:16 -0700 Rootfireember Trini - I'd like to see someone make Arkady's barbie-head coat! ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82365#Comment_82365 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82365#Comment_82365 Mon, 08 Sep 2008 22:01:22 -0700 trini_naenae http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82387#Comment_82387 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82387#Comment_82387 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 01:08:38 -0700 AdamK http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82416#Comment_82416 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82416#Comment_82416 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 06:48:48 -0700 trini_naenae http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82441#Comment_82441 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82441#Comment_82441 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 08:48:53 -0700 Trickster_Chick http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82480#Comment_82480 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=82480#Comment_82480 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 13:14:31 -0700 diello Sweet!

Could we possibly get the stencils up on here? Would love to get a hold of the Spider one especially.

And that translates into time to tinker with making things....
(some of the following photos link to larger images)

A little while back, I made this pendant (about 1.5" at its widest) - brass plate; rough cut, ground, and etched by (shakey) hand; teeny old pocket watch gears. It's nifty and it was educational to fabricate, but I'm no longer happy with it...


Before that was an attempt at a jacket, with the FA logo made from hand-cut brass sheeting. Abandoned this one, though, for a few reasons (not the least of which is my utter lack of patience at times)....


...for one that was much easier to make with fabric paint:


And, finally, I had to vandalize the Whitechapel bag - sticky-backed felt secured with brass thread-like wire, plus boredom:


I also added small pockets inside to keep my cell phones, cameras, and MP3 player segregated and organized....

Heh! And then I strong-armed my drafter and machinist into making a set of grinder gears for me...


...yeah, I have too much time on my hands. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=100200#Comment_100200 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=3504&Focus=100200#Comment_100200 Tue, 11 Nov 2008 16:16:30 -0800 LBA
