What is the best way to makecut out portrait silhouettes? |
|
I would love to try making cut
out black paper silhouettes
and I have tried with my
daughter who said I the light
was too bright and it hurt her
eyes - what is the best set up
to use, where to position
light, which light would
people recommend or does it
involve projecting? Thank you
for help! |

Have your daughter sit fairly
close to the wall, next to
where you've taped a piece of
paper. Trace the shadow as it
appears on the paper.
The light doesn't have to be
that close to her - a 60w bulb
in a reading light would be
sufficient if the room is
dark. She would be sitting
sideways to the wall so you
can get her profile, and the
light will point at the side
of her face, so the light
doesn't have to shine in her
eyes at all.

How do you make vector artsilhouettes? |
|
I would like to make t-shirts
with white silhouettes of
people. |
 |
Are you asking how to do the
vector or how to make the
t-shirt with the silhouette?
Well the easiest way to do the
vector is drawing out the
design, scanning it into
Illustrator and hit Live Trace
and then Make and Expand.
But as far as getting it on
the shirt, here's some low
cost alternatives to do it
yourself:
You could do a stencil
template and use textile paint
to fill in or you could also
do a bleach out on a colored
t-shirt. The best way to do a
low-budget cut-out anything on
t-shirts (whether you're
painting in or bleaching out),
is to use contact paper (that
stuff they use to line the
inside of drawers with a
slightly sticky side.
Available in Wal-mart, Rite
Aid, etc.). Draw your design
on the contact paper and cut
it out with an exacto knife.
Iron the shirt you're using
and insert a piece of
cardboard bigger than the
design inside the shirt. Then
find a nice flat surface to
tape the shirt on, making sure
you stretch it on a bit (any
table top will do as long as
it's wide enough) with masking
or painter's tape (something
not too tacky). Before
sticking on the contact paper,
make sure to lightly mark it
where you want it to go. Now
you can either paint in the
design with some textile paint
or bleach out using a light
misting spray bottle with a
mixture of 1:5 (I THINK - test
this first to get it to bleach
without destroying the fabric.
I can't remember the proper
proportion) bleach to water
and mist on a fine mist and
let it bleach. There is a
better way of bleaching out
the color without
dissentigrating the fabric but
it's more expensive and you'll
need other materials with it.
Some other ways you can do the
design at home is using a
foil. It's basically what they
use to get the shiny metallic
surface on clothes. What it is
is basically a textile glue
that you use for the design
and you simply iron on the
foil on top and done right,
you get an even flawless
metallic version of your
design. Here's where you can
get a kit:

can kinda pass for a white but
look at the selection--they
may have a white. |
