I finished my Banksy shirt. I'm pretty satisfied with it.

Thats looks really nice, I wish I could stencil like that.

<---NoFX---> 10-15-2005 05:18 PM

I like that, it's pretty swell. Banksy is from my city

Banksy isn't a band, it's a graffiti artist. And yes, he's great.

Here's what I was wearing for spirit day at school during 80's day. This was my mom's dress back in the 80's. I wore it with a misfits shirt over it, and some snakeskin tights. Everything was from the 80's.

I really like this dress, and it looks really DIY, but it's not. My mom bought it from a UK brand of clothes called boy. Still a really cool dress, though. If I liked wearing dresses, I'd wear this a lot.

[QUOTE=Ghostfire3]Is there any way to make jeans fade, cause I wanna do that with a few pairs of mine.[/QUOTE]


Couldn't you just throw them in the bathtub with water and then pour bleach in with the water? I bleached my vest and I did that and it faded slowly, if you want them really faded just pour the bleach all over. And don't wear a good shirt because you might think "oh how is bleach going to get on my shirt, it's like two feet away in the bathtub" but believe me bleach gets everywhere even if you think you're being clean.

good rats 10-17-2005 01:39 AM

I've got a question, and I searched this thread, but whatever.

me and my mate want to put stencils on t-shirts. What would we need to buy so it can go through the wash?

AndreTheHyena 10-17-2005 01:46 AM

You can buy fabric paint in spray cans, but normal spray paint works just fine.

Someone else may know more than I.

Bomb_The_Music_Industry 10-17-2005 06:19 AM

Hmmm well I know that it's not really DIY to ask this but does anybody have any ideas for a good Bomb The Music Industry! stencil? All I can come up with are random slogans... I'm just a bit stuck when it comes to some description of picture to use...
Cheers

/Did not just make this account to ask this question.... Honest.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure of it.

Skidmark Steve 10-17-2005 01:39 PM

do you think if i bleached my schoolbag it would work? because of the ruff material and all?

pedro durruti 10-17-2005 06:22 PM

I have a proposition to make to you talented stencilists. If you can make a shirt out of my avatar ([url]http://www.asianmanrecords.com/basket/images/cds/big/bitchbitchbitch.jpg[/url]) I will pay you the cost of the shirt, shipping, and like $5 more for time or supplies or whatever, as long as the total cost isn't anything over $15

So if you're willing to do this since my talents in crafts are very limited, talk to me on aim (ihatecelebr1ties), MSN (ihatecelebrities@hotmail.com), Soulseek (ihateceIebrities) or on here (ihatecelebrities)

But if you only have MSN you'll need to tell me because it's uninstalled right now.

These stencils... are they for shirts or patches or what?

asdf 10-17-2005 06:29 PM

[QUOTE=moe.]These stencils... are they for shirts or patches or what?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, basically. I started out making patches, but I found it to be a lot less work to just make shirts. Some people might even use them for graffiti, but I'm not a fan of things like that.

I probably sound like a dumbass again, but how would you go about making a shirt? Is there a tutorial?

asdf 10-17-2005 06:35 PM

[QUOTE=moe.]I probably sound like a dumbass again, but how would you go about making a shirt? Is there a tutorial?[/QUOTE]
Well, It's been explained a bit in this thread, but I'll just tell you now.

The way I do it is:

First, I find an image online that could be stenciled. Or even design my own on the computer (or just draw it if you're artistically inclined). I print it off and glue it onto posterboard, or material like that. Then, with an exacto knife, cut out the stencil. With practice, your stencils will get better.

When your stencil is done, you can tape your stencil (or use a gluestick lightly, which is what I do) to your shirt. Put something like a book or cardboard inside your shirt, behind where your stencil is. Use fabric paint, and either spray onto the shirt, or paint on with a regular paintbrush.

That's basically it. The more you cut the stencils, the better you'll get at it.

Some examples of mine:

[QUOTE=Skidmark Steve]do you think if i bleached my schoolbag it would work? because of the ruff material and all?[/QUOTE]

well probably yes if it's jeans materical it will come out fine, but otherwise test it out first on a non-visble part. Colors cometimes come out wierd. It often goes to brown or pinkish when you bleach a dyed fabric.

Those are awesome, i cut out my first stencil today (7 Seconds) i'll post pics of the finished shirt.

Skidmark Steve 10-17-2005 06:45 PM

yo with the stencil you have to cut out your design and color it in?

asdf 10-17-2005 06:47 PM

[QUOTE=Skidmark Steve]yo with the stencil you have to cut out your design and color it in?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, basically.

Although, if you wanted to make a shirt and were really good at freehand, I don't see why you couldn't just draw it on.

Skidmark Steve 10-17-2005 06:52 PM

i see i see. i just started making my own DIY shirts, but with the iron on paper which turned out pretty good

Brendan 10-17-2005 07:48 PM

hey asdf, what does your user title stand for and would you post that radiohead stencil? i LOVE it. How did you make it so big though?

I don't even remember what my user title is about. I think it's from some thread in the pit. Anyway, it's because I'm left handed.

The radiohead stencil I just took from [url]http://www.butik.pl/im/mediumthumbnail/6/8/683f5.png[/url] and stretched it out in microsoft word. It's not really as big as it might seem, because the shirt is pretty small. I forgot where I got the radiohead letters, but they're pretty easy to find.

Brendan 10-17-2005 08:50 PM

Im sorry, i meant your name. what does asdf mean?

Nerdcore753 10-17-2005 10:19 PM

I was thinking about making a Nike shirt for the irony.

TheNowhereman42 10-17-2005 10:20 PM

I'm gonna post my jacket as soon as I sew my conflict, crash cadillacs, demented are go, and choking v patches on it and screen the gainsville crest on it.
