    Some recent painting with a mate for the book fest here, it was based on the original image 40 years ago by Roald Dahl, I mostly did the background.
    Never usually paint such spacey looking stuff so it was fun to try. We did loads of site branding too, but it wasn't as fancy.

    • That's really wonderful., PhanLo! I was thinking about you and Gardener y'day as I was up a ladder installing some [crappy] shop signage locally :)Nairn
    • Ah cheers Nairn, Lots of ladder action in this, knees were really sore after (signs we're getting old). Cutting the stencil for the logo was pretty epicPhanLo
    • Yeah, I can imagine - I think even laser cutting that'd be a pain in the as to set up :) Do you bridge and then paint over the gaps?Nairn
    • It was all so changeable onsite that we were re-adjusting artwork and adapting it on the day, always a weeee bit stressful, vinyl would have been better for defPhanLo
    • I cut iit all out and then re-tape it back in so the gaps are in the right place, it's a bit more time consuming but I feel it gives a cleaner line. I just pushPhanLo
    • ...the stencil as I go so there's no underspray.PhanLo
    • 4 hours of cutting for 5 minutes spray. :-(PhanLo
    • Do you have a laser cutter in uyru rolodex(!)? I regularly do oiled manila stencils fo outdoor artists - try and find someone local who offers that?Nairn
    • Uyru? How? 'Your'.Nairn
    • I should look out a laser cutter person, we know some cnc guys but it's rare we get cut stencils. Reckon a few guys I know in London would get stuff from you.PhanLo
    • I probably already cut them for them ;)

      I do quite a lot of work for a few people in your industry.

    • Great stuff/Nice Post!stoplying
    • Hey, PhanLo - would you mind sending me the vector file for the stencil design you used? I'm curious to see how I'd approach it, so that I can show you.Nairn
    • If so - catch me on Discord?Nairn
    • ..Not looking for work, I like to keep a separation between on and off line (!), but I think you could find someone local who could do this for you, no problemNairn
