Sunday Sign #9- Born to lose!

This week's Sunday Sign is a helmet. This is a project I started a while ago, but put the final touches on the lettering and outlined the gold leaf today so I could shoot clear on it this afternoon. I'm really happy with how the clear turned out. I've never lettered or striped with 1shot before shooting the clear before, and I think it looks pretty good. I've got a few more helmets on deck for letters and clear, so keep you eyes open for more! They're also all for sale, so if you've got a special someone (like, yourself) who's got a medium head and a freewheelin spirit, this is just the Christmas present they need!

Sunday Sign #8- Lovestruck

This is the biggest sign I've done to date. 3'x 5' black 1shot on masonite, done for a senior capstone film project of someone I don't know. A friend of mine who works in the prop shop on campus (and who is helping out with the film) mentioned to me that they needed a big sign, so I said I'd do it. (that was before I knew the town name was 15 letters long, and that they'd want all of the supplementary text in plain block, the hardest font to letter.) It was a fun learning experience though, and it turned out pretty cool, if not a little boring. I should get a better pic sometime soonish; I neglected to get one before they took it to shoot, so one of the crew was kind enough to send me this image from her cell phone. 

Sunday Sign #7- 4 Days Left!

Alright, the four isn't hand-painted, it's hand inked. I forgot to paint it before I put all my paints away, and I'm a little crunched for time tonight, busy making preparations for HALLOWEEN!

Sunday Sign #6- Camp Crystal Lake

Looking for a good slasher movie? Well, Friday the 13th isn't it. Seriously one of the worst Horror movies I've ever seen. The best slasher movie of all time is Halloween. Unfortunately, Halloween doesn't have a sign to copy, so here we are. 

Sunday Sign #5- Grim Grinning Ghosts!

Combined the Facebook Halloween drawing with the Sunday Sign today. The top picture makes the "grim grinning" letters look really yellow, but they're bright fluorescent orange, as you can see in the bottom image ( I used fluorescent 1shot mixed with standard 1shot on all of the colors here except for the red in the "Ghosts"). If you want to see how cool it looks in person under blacklight, come visit my dungeon!

Spirituality Snake

Here's a piece I just did for my Senior Studio class. The assignment was to create a work based around the topic of spirituality. I chose to focus my drawing on the idea of biological spirituality, or the element of spirituality that is confined to earth, the spiritual relationship between all life here, as it pertains to it's time here. I might rework a few things before the midterm re-review, and if I do, I'll post the results. 

Sorry, Sunday Sign Fans...

Sorry, everybody, but I got a migraine today for the first time in a long time, and it packed quite a wallop, making the prospect of sitting in my poorly ventilated room with 1shot and thinner fumes to contend with one that I didn't care to pursue. As a small substitute, here's today's 31 days of Halloween drawing for your viewing pleasure. I've been doing these drawings every day this month and posting them on Facebook, so if you have Facebook, you should check them out! Just look up Chad Danger Lindsay and you'll see all the spookiness! (Disappointed Sunday Sign fans will no doubt notice that the text on this drawing is off center! VonDutch is rolling in his grave...) Come back next week for some serious signage!
