Where can you buy iron-on transfer paper? Do they have it at most stores or do you have to search around for it?

How else would it transfer?

I finally finished my first BOTAR stencil. I think one of the wings turned out well, and the other was... kind of good. I'll probably end up flipping the stencil around and using the same wing twice.

I have yet to make a stencil for the words. The front is going to have the guitar and "B.O.T.A.R.", and the back will have "THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE AMPLIFIED"

what did you make your stencil out of?

Cardboard. It's my first stencil ever and I didn't know any better. I'll be using something else next time

See I wanna do a stencil for the 2-tone gangster on the Specials cover but im not sure how id do that?

You just get some really thick paper material, draw on, or print out a picture and glue on the image you want to be a stencil. Use an x-acto knife to cut out.

I never made a shirt and i want to so I got a question. So once I cut out the stencil what do I use for colour, paint, markers...?

Fabric Paint.

Definitely your best bet.

I tried to make a sonic youth shirt once using the stencil method. The picture ended up looking nothing like the stencil.

Can somebody give me a price range in Canadian if you could?

It takes practice. Start with simple logos.

[QUOTE=robenshtein]Can somebody give me a price range in Canadian if you could?[/QUOTE]
Anybody?

For fabric paint in the u.s. it cost me about 1.50 for a bottle. Work conversion magic.

ok, that pretty cheap

Yeah it is. Pick up 3 diffrent colours, see which ones you like. I reccomend doing it on a practice shirt first so you dont waste a good shirt if you **** up.

What do you mean 3 different colours. I only need 1 or 2

[QUOTE=robenshtein]What do you mean 3 different colours. I only need 1 or 2[/QUOTE]
That'll do then.

were you the one that make the black flag T-shirt and posted a picture of it?

Really simple designs first, like Pennywise and Crass or something, then move on to harder stuff, like the little Ska guy

so you saying try a simpler stencle first?

Nobody knows were to get iron-on transfer paper?
