i got the worst sunburn ever when I watched a pipe welder do his thing with a tig rig. all I had was the shield glass from an old hood.... I kept saying "do I smell burning hair?" it was my nostrils, they were lobster red as well as my entire face, with the exception of a white rectangle over my eyes.

that mistake was never duplicated.

I'm crying and I farted on accident trying to read that to ben.

haHA!
my project today came our pretty #$%*in' spiffy.
I messed up my back at work yesterday, so I had some time for quiet contemplation today.

I decided to try bleach painting on a couple hoodies I have.
Pinned hoodie on a piece of cardboard and started drawing vertebra:

Starting from the top at T1 and going down, did the ribs and scapulae...

then painted with bleach, got "as light as it's going to get" and neutralized the bleach with some hydrogen peroxide water, rinsed with cold water, washed and dried. The finished result:

This is my first attempt so I did it on a really old hoodie. It's not 'perfect' but I'm wearing it, not teaching anatomy from it, so it's fine for me.

Did the front, too, but haven't gotten pics of it.

It sure is...but I am not 100% sold on the white walls...not sure why but it just looks off to me. Maybe someone should Photo Shop the Leopard prints for a Pearl white colour. Although that might just make the bike look like a pair of spats (or whatever those shoes are called)

But on the front did you draw Bewbies???

Nice hoodie project, Kit. Well done. You are so punk rock.

So Ink, are you going to be Manny's surrogate interwebber? He's not gonna make you surf his favorite porn sites for him is he?

Frankenkit · « **Reply #22561 on:** December 30, 2009, 07:31:17 PM »

ok, here's the front:

I stopped at the pockets because if I went much further I'd have to figure out whether or not I wanted to paint the pelvis and coccyx and I just wasn't into it.
That hoodie was 50/50 cotton/poly, and the color in person is sort of a warm brown.

My 'new' hoodie was 80/20 and came out much brighter and redder, so I used a neater design:

I got the more muted red on the side by brushing/splashing a diluted mix, letting it just get red, then spraying peroxide on it to kill the bleach...

I'm putting my 'directions' on here b/c I'd be interested in seeing what other people can come up with by doing this...

my78k · « **Reply #22562 on:** December 30, 2009, 07:36:19 PM »

Actually come to think of it I beat you to it Kit...I did that same thing ages ago! Of course it was when I first moved out on my own and had to do my own laundry and figured I could put bleach in any type of load....didn't quite look as good but if you are into the "ink blot" look it was killer!!

I can imagine worse things. At least Ink won't have to have anything to do with the sheer amount of hand cream on Manny's computer desk...

Those are cool Ink.. I did not even think you could do that with our ruining the hoodie..

So Manny's bike with snow leopard.. Forgive the image, I don't own photoshop.. Some one with Photoshop could do better I am sure..

The pre-drawing was a crayon. I used a couple old brushes (the bleach ate them, so make sure they're brushes you're willing to part with) I started with 2:1 water/bleach, but went to pure bleach and kept the peroxide on hand as 'emergency brakes'. It took about five minutes to get as light as it was going to get. Most of the time was actually spent drawing with the crayon, honestly.

This was actually what I was thinking of with the black/white spikey bike motif...
