 So what do we have here? Oh you know, your run-of-the-mill dayglow, neon, zombie stencil. This is the first fully hand drawn stencil that I've made. Usually the drawing is manipulated / tweaked in photoshop in some way before I actually cut it. I find it kind of interesting that a lot of the guys on StencilRevolution feel rather strongly one way or the other: computer vs. no computer within the design process. Personally, I don't care. Use the computer if you want to- it's just a tool in the end. If it's going to make the piece better than use it.

This piece was done on 3/4" cardboard (the same type as the Hammer piece). It measures 23" high x 7 1/4" wide. The cardboard was sprayed black, I used white latex house paint and a brush for the white highlight layer over the black. The moons behind the zombie were all cut individually and the zombie used two layers: the pink and the black detail layer.
I'm out of town this week so there won't be any other updates mmmkay?
