Hmm i've done it and it looks alright, a little messy.
It would have been better if i didn't try and put it on before it was fully dry :( [URL="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v732/67543/Photo001.jpg"]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v732/67543/Photo001.jpg[/URL] |
That's good! It does look a bit wet, but it'll look awesome once it dries.
Tip for all printers on cloth: Once the print is dry, it's good to iron it through a thin piece of material. What I mean is that you put the dried print on the ironing board, cover it with a thin sheet (white is best so you can see through to the print), then iron it for a couple of minutes. |
you can't see it form that pic but there is quite a lot of blodgas and stuff roudn the edges.
haha i used a little paint brush to do it, well sketchy. |

If you don't put the cloth on it starts to small bad and sometimes smoke...but I have a patch which has held up exceptionally well to repeated washings thanks to ironing. It's faded less than my jeans have so far. |
Reckon black permanent marker and gold marker will hold up on jeans if I don't wash them?
My jeans are now 50% more punk than they were 1/2 hour ago. |
[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]How do you suppose acrylic paint will hold up on a shirt? I'm gunna do the banksy stencil, and the only colored paint I have around here (for the flowers) is acrylic, and I don't really want to buy a bunch of fabric paint just for that little bit.[/QUOTE]
acrylic has always worked just fine for me i mean thats all i ever use and it holds up fine [url]http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b73/mascara_hero13/100_4244.jpg[/url] (my friends band, its not a great picture becasue its on, but i couldnt take another because my camera got "hardcore"-danced into) |
Is that a NASA ship shooting at something?
|
Sup guys.
All right, I got the stuff needed to make a stencil and so on. I'm thinking of just writting one word on a shirt black shirt. Now, it's between "rhyme" and "think" But I don't know which one. I could make two, but then again. I need this first one to work or else I'll abonden this whole DIY ethic and presue making comics. Also, DIY Comics? Where would I go/buy for comic editing/making stuff? Not drawing, but computer editing. |
DIY comics on the internet as in webcomics?
Get Photoshop, you can steal it punx way. Or you can support the little man and use GIMP instead. |

You suck!:angry: |
[QUOTE=coheneran]You suck!:angry:[/QUOTE]
Maybe so, but I have photoshop. After my photoshop screwed up for a few months, a friend of mine suggested GIMP. I tried using it once, was absolutely appauled with the layout, and got another copy of photoshop. |
I've never used GIMP, I'm fine with my stolen photoshop.

Are you going to take pictures of them yourself or just manipulate stock images? You could use any image editing program for the former, just getting speech bubbles in. |

Probably, but I need help creating sets and writing, it's a partner comic. I still don't know what the main character will be and etc. I was thinking of having it deal with punx but that might be kind of hard since it's just toys. It'll probably be about a differnt subject and have some comics about the punk culture. |
It's really hard making them funny. I had a go at writing some comedy sketches once, they really really sucked. We should make a joint MX Punx webcomic. Maybe try a few NN2S-style strips.

It is hard, but I have time and I want to want make a comic. I just can't draw, I' m completly a musican when it comes to art, except dance. I'm not joking about dance. |
You can ask sketchyjoe to help, I know he was interested in writing some scripts for a comic we were planning for a couple of us slsk punx.
But webcomics are a really good place to be in right now, they are gorwing in populairty and webcomic artists support each other a lot. |
I just like the idea of comics in general.
So it seemed like a fun idea to do, and toys are just funny in general. |
[QUOTE=SantaDuJuan]It is hard, but I have time and I want to want make a comic. I just can't draw, I' m completly a musican when it comes to art, except dance.
I'm not joking about dance.[/QUOTE] I love dancing. I'm not good at technique or pop-group style synchronisation (or moves of any kind), for me it's mostly about losing inhibition and self-consciousness, and then sort of feel your "soul" sway from side to side following your body about an inch behind. Know what I mean? I'd like to be involved in any comic-making, if that's cool. |
You can take some inspiration from this comic: [url]http://legostargalactica.comicgen.com/[/url]
One of the best photo comics with toys I've seen. |

Lol, that's an awesome komic.

I'm very enthusiastic about this now.
|
Haha I was when I was talking to my bud about it.
We'll probably just go to the toy store with 50 dollers and buy some "characters" |
[QUOTE=SantaDuJuan]Haha I was when I was talking to my bud about it.

Awhile back I was attempting cartooning for the purpose of a journal comic involving my friends. Unfortunately, I cannot cartoon.
My friend however, is great at cartooning, and loves cartooning her friends. She's been doing this since freshman year, and she just keeps getting better. She also had the journal comic idea long before I did, but she never went through with it. Every once and awhile I try to encourage her. I shall try again soon. Back in middle school I had a webcomic. It was really stupid, and as far as I can tell, I erased every trace of it. |
In the words of Jeph Jacques, if you can't draw, learn to, that's what he did.
On the DIY toy front, I'm in the process of preparing my Star Wars collection for a display at a county fair, and part of it is my action figures, in the process of collecting stuff, I found one of my first DIY projects. He was a mini-Darth Maul made from taking two figures, a Darth Maul and young Anakin, popping off Anakin's head and cutting off his hands, then taking a popped off Darth Maul head and sticking it on the Anakin body, plus glueing the gloves to where Anakin's hands were. He's quite awesome looking. I'll try to take pictures if I can find the card reader for the digicam. I meant to do more figures (I have a bunch of parts from stuff I bought at a thrift store), but never came up with anything good. |
[QUOTE=Brain Toad]In the words of Jeph Jacques, if you can't draw, learn to, that's what he did.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I clicked Random Strip once and I thought I accidentally clicked a link to another comic site, it was completely different. Even then, White Ninja proved you don't need to draw well at all to have an awesome webcomic. |
One of my early DIY projects involved making fridge magnets using free ones from Dominos and Magic: The Gathering cards.
How awesome. |
I remember Magic. That was an awesome card game. I probably still have my cards somewhere.
|
I still have my cards, as does my brother. I barely played the game though. I just really liked the art, and I was just following what my older brother did.
|
You should try playing, it's incredibly fun. I spent a lot of rainy days inside my old school playing with my friends, and a lot of sunny days playing outside in my old school too. I had a beast deck, it was awesome.
|
No, I'm definitely passed Magic, Pokemon, Mage Knights etc. Some of my friends occasionally get out a deck, but not me.
|
Okay, so my shirt is almost done. I've got the heart on the front and the guy on the back, but I haven't put in the flowers yet. I'll post pictures when I'm finished. Also, I was thinking about putting the lyrics
no one ever changed the church by pulling down a steeple And you'll never change the system by bombing number ten Systems just aren't made of bricks they're mostly made of people You may send them into hiding, but they'll be back again Thoughts? |
Here are some pictures of mini-Maul. He's next to a regular sized Darth Maul for comparison.

How about the chorus? Or, even better, the first few lines on the third verse: "Be exactly who you want to be/Do what you want to do/I am me and she is she but/You're the only you." If you want something religious based, then probably any line from the first verse would do. |
