DUUUUDE your on newschoolers. im actually really a fan of your stuff, i do a lot of street stencils and stuff like that. just wondering for your multilayer stencils do ypu take an image into photoshop, B/W, contrast, then use cutout filter?
 
Thanks man !They're all done on photoshop. If I want a photo-realistic stencil like the one above this is the method I use:
1. Crop image and cut out all unnecessary elements via pen tool.2. Desaturate 3. Adjust brightness and contrast to get a good balanced composition4. Image > Adjustments > Posterize (choose amount of layers)5. Select > Color Range (Choose each individual color and copy them into separate layers6. Cut 'em up
They're extremely detailed and you obviously can't cut out every pixel, but with some practice, you'll find which elements are necessary. I takes awhile to know how to make sturdy stencils with proper bridges and there are also some short cuts. One short cut I use is cutting out the outline for the darkest layer and then I just stack all the other layers on top so you can't see the background at all.
Hope that helps!
 
nice nice, thats pretty much exactly what i do (pasteruze/cutout have nearly same effect) iv only done a 2 layer one though, what cans have the most greys/blacks?
 
A friend of mine is a graphic design student, he's started a small clothing line.

damn i was hoping some easy store brand. whenever i order its usually from oink art ltd too get some sabotaz or ironlak lol
 
I've never liked ironlak for stencils. It's great for freehand graff, but not good on stencils. If you're using paper stencils, it will tear them apart because it had a really sticky formula.

^ for the tags, put the letters a lot closer together. And arrows generally look bad, especially when you are sort of new at graffiti. try too use complimentary color schemes throughout the fill (IE a blue fill, with a lighter blue/purple highlights. something of the sort). keep workin on it, and good luck getting up!
 
thanks man ill work on it, i just started getting into graf and drawing like a few months back, so i definitely could use all the tips possible ha
