| I really like the idea of being able to create multiple images quickly and repeatedly...and am interested especially in stencils and screenprinting (although I have not done much screeenprinting as yet to be honest) I have just been mucking around with different materials to see what gets the best results stencil wise...
I have found that OHP transparencies are v.good and use a seriously sharp blade(scalpel or snap off blade retractable knife)...try to make all long cuts in one move so that they are smooth and try to work out whrere all the "islands" are gonna be in advance and try to work round them.
Are u gonna be using spraypaint? If so matt paint works better. | |

| you can get OHP tranparencies in any office supplies shop or art store, or if u know anyone who works in an office or goes to school/college/uni get them to steal u some. Cereal boxes are a bit too thick to get any detail on and also become sloppy and get fucked after a couple of uses. | |

| Can anyone suggest any good spray paint brands or a palce that sells them? I was told some art shops have some good paint. When i first tried graffiti i used some really crap paint and it all dripped and was pretty knarly to say the least.
