Here is a rough, working copy of my first stencil, a picture of Eye Yamataka! There are a ton of places I need to clean up with some f1lt3rz and stuff, but I think it is a laudable first effort!

What do you guys think I should do to fix the top of his hairline? (Obv. the image I was working from was cropped there)

Do you think that there is enough paper to support the face?

PS - I made this using GIMP. :D

Aja, I didn't think the hat would look so hot! Sorry! :(((

Make some kind of fancy backround. It can be a pattern of hats!!

the eyes aren't quite crazy enough, but otherwise it looks good.

― hstencil, Tuesday, 13 April 2004 03:47 (twenty-two years ago)

well there you go :)

lots of my brothers work is on that site, he's quite good at it, a little obessed with bob dylan stencils though :)

Hmm, point taken about the eyes, I'll look into that, although small details get pretty blurry.

Do you think I should change the beard near the chin?

Someone suggested making the face a separate stencil from the hair, but I thought that was way too much work and complexity and would lead to alignment problems.

What my brother and i do is use a fairly heavy transparent plastic. Thin enough to cut through but flexible too. Makes alligning stuff super easy. He does 4-colour stencils, so i guess lining everything up is paramount.

Yea, I'm starting small.

do you guys think i should have left the top of the hair open?

― Lil' Fancy Kpants (The K is Silent) (ex machina), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 02:37 (twenty-two years ago)

I cut off most of the additional hair things I added.

― Lil' Fancy Kpants (The K is Silent) (ex machina), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 02:41 (twenty-two years ago)

you should leave the hair, it looks a little odd now.

― ipsofacto (ipsofacto), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 02:43 (twenty-two years ago)

yea :/ I think I might redo it

― Lil' Fancy Kpants (The K is Silent) (ex machina), Wednesday, 14 April 2004 02:44 (twenty-two years ago)

yea, i think i am going back to the original style hair
