Day 17: Forbidden Planet

...for some reason this popped into my head today...I'm sure it's been done before but I couldn't find any examples on the internet.

It was done in Adobe Photoshop...not quite as easy as it might have been as I had to recreate the areas where the legs and head of the woman that the robot is carrying in the original had been. Just a bit of fun.

Day 7: P38 Lightning Stencil

I really like the silhouette pictures that were given out during WWII to identify different planes from their shapes. I've not really considered why until this moment...they are a very simple but effective bit of illustration. They remind me of the drawing I had to do at secondary school of objects from 3 different sides. I recently found some of these on the internet and it struck me that they would make quite nice t-shirt stencils for a friend of mine who likes planes a whole lot more than I do...he is of the "polystyrene cement all over you fingers type" if you know what I mean...then you are probably one of those too!

As it will only be one colour I would like it to be a one part stencil...this means that there are no internal islands and that the stencil can be just one piece of card. So far I have redrawn this jpg in Illustrator ready for me to convert into a stencil. I've highlighted the islands in red. I have only drawn one side of the views from the front and bottom as these can be mirrored once I have sorted the islands out. Anyway it's been a long day so I am unlikely to finish this today...another ongoing project!
