We are very happy with what we have accomplished in terms of the quantities of work we have produced. Both the pencils and paint splats look great finished with the addition of Dan's airbrushing.
Having made the first pencil already I found the process of making the other two a lot quicker and easier. The images above and below show the two completed pencils models that had been mostly covered with paper machet and primed ready for painting.
The image below shows some of the creative mess involved in producing the props. We had to make sure everything was well covered due to the quantities of paint involved.
The picture below shows me hard at work applying paper machet to the bottoms of the pencils. This was then primed, ready for paint.
The image below shows the second and third pencil after two layers of poster paint had been applied. Me and Dan applied about three layers of paint to each pencil.
The image below again shows two of the pencil models after a few coats of poster paint.
The image below shows the second pencil model after applying a grey coloured paint to the top and bottom.
The image below show the red and yellow pencils ready for air-brushing. We added a pink colour for the rubber.
The two images below show Dan at work adding highlights to the models using his air-brush.
As well as adding highlights, Dan also added shading to the model. The image below shows Dan holding the finished yellow pencil.
Below is a pile of finsihed splats that Dan made, painted, air-brushed and varnished using PVA glue.
The image below shows what we have managed to accomplish over three days. We have completed three pencils and eleven splats. The next stage of our production line is the fourteen T-shirts for the class to wear for the exhibition.
The shirt below is our first attempt at creating the shirt design. Having seen the amount of time the shirt took to dry and prefering the smaller splats as apposed to the large splats we decided to revise the design.
For the backs of the shirts Dan ironed on the exhibition logo using an iron - on transfer paper, whilst I created a stencil ready to paint on the text.
Having cut the stencil from a sheet of plastic I proceeded to add paint to the design, keeping to the colours originally set by the graphics team. The image below shows the combination of the logo and text on one of the spare shirts.
This is how the shirt looked when Dan tryed it on. We were quite happy with the way the logo sits on the back of the shirt.
The production line. Ironing and painting until we had fourteen shirts ready to flick poster paint at. Having spent a large proportion of our day on the shirts so far we were just hoping for the best.
The images above and below show the effect of the paint flick/ splatter. The image above shows one of the shirt designs in progress. To stop paint running through to the back of the shirt we decided to make cardboard incerts to stop any leakage. The picture below shows a finished shirt hung out to dry.
