well i plan on growing numbers here first before i leave
i want a strong presence here
semester starts soon
i got a campus full of chads
@BraeJager TX so you are good at making stencils?
im not good at that sort of stuff
Well, I have only done it once, and it turned out great. So that's 100%
Just take your time.
I cut the VA logo in half, and printed it on two pages. Then I trimmed margins and taped it together. Then, I traced it onto the stencil blank. Then, slowly cut with exacto knife and the little cutting pad.
I cheated on some lines so as to not make sections to thin, and I cheated on some of the really fine details.
what did you use, posterboard?
Nope. Hobby Lobby sells stencil blanks. It's like $8 or so for 3 of them, roughly 12X18"
are they thicker?
They are plastic backed, and partially translucent for easy tracing
not familiar with stencil blanks
nice
They aren't very thick, but they are tough because of the plastic backing
im really bad at that type of shit, but if i have time having one or two would help me a lot
im a trained biochemist
i never got into art
I'm an engineer. I'm not good at art either.
but you did it
so i can too
Yup!
which image files did you use for printing it out?
thanks brother
i think just having ONE of those, the official logo would be good
don't do all the detail on the eagle's head. Just pop a line across.
You only really need one.
yeah
thanks i appreciate it
NP bro
new realms to my propaganda and exposure skills always help
@BraeJager TX just out of curiosity, how did you print them, like which software, fit to page or whatever
ive had to do funky stuff with some flyers before to get them to print right
Naw, I just did file print, fill page.
just opened it in paint?
then use scissors to cut off the margins. carefully tape them together, and wala it's an 11X17
