- bottom of the lid/pretty “vacant”
I put an album cover from the bootleg album of the 2002 Low Dough festival which the Sex Pistols Headlined and we attended. Glued down and sprayed poly thick. May need to sand and re-poly tomorrow. I painted “Vacant” on the bottom of the lid. Rough sanded, wiped, and sprayed it with black paint / wrote with red / poly with the can. Will check tomorrow. May change the bottom of the lid.
This is with one more spraying of the poly in the can over all surfaces. All that is left is the bottom and the top edges (darken), and a set of cool drawer pulls for the handles of the lid to pull it off to box. I like it.
i just finished putting the second coat on the inside of the box. (note: that cheap bristle brush package of red handled brushes from the dollar store have great qualities that some expensive brushes do not have). I tried to put it on thick, even and fast. I turned it around 360/d, twice to try to see any runs or missed spots. There is one spot on one side that has a black streak horizontally but if it ends up showing it is cool with me. I am thinking about putting a little rectangular sex pistols / pretty vacant sticker on the middle of the bottom of it while the paint is still wet. I will get the opinion of mc first. I have really enjoyed this day/night with you. i love you.
i like the red color inside as i knew i would…spread half a small can all over inside, and spread across the top edge too. One more coat should do it and then i will pour on the poly. I’m gonna get a nice piece of wood for the top. Maybe I can find some fine pine. I will sand it like a motherfucker and make it smooth as glass. Sex Pistols custom die cut decal on it, poly it and place it on top. I like this one.
Added some more layers to the coffin box. Added some black to some, red to others and a little yellow or a bit of each one to each skull and random ‘little’ anarchy symbols. I also added a few of the little anarchy symbols to the middle sections of each side panel.
More painting on the coffin box project. I went out to take some photos of it and decided to spray some red paint over one of the stencils. Too cool so I did them all. Now, as I see the photo perspective, I am thinking red overlayed on the corner ‘anarchy’ symbols and maybe even a red blotch here and there.
In this movie I went from most recent and back. I like the way this is going with the theme. I know that the more I add to the circles, reversing the yellow to black spray pattern that it will end up with cool. Also I have been alternating the angles as the spots run to try to create a 4 dimension look. I want to try to use the small sex pistols die cut sticker either on the ends of the box or on the top corners of the long panels. I kinda have a hankerin’ to try it in red/black bursts. My mood will tell I guess…or the moon, or the level of the evening. I can see that i have to get serious/put my head down and forge us ahead in this world together but I am going to finish this fucking box and we are gonna put shit in side of it when we need to maximize space in our new place.
I always liked painting abstractly and then adding more and more until the end result was something different and cool. This is the first phase….I like it already. As I add more it will create a ‘kaliedascopy’ type of effect…..and once I have the ‘finish’ how i like it I can add the middle stecil in the middle or maybe just a corner of each side to sit on top of the crazy finish…..or…it may be cool to add the stencil half way through and layer just enough on to see the highlights of what it is….probably a different shade of yellow
