ok so some of you guys were wanting a write up on my splatter techniques, so here we go...
first wipe down what you want to paint with alcohol. .90 cents per bottle at any grocery store.
now that its clean we need to lay our base coat. for me I used black but get creative with it. I dont have a pic of the paint I used but its Krylon Plastic Paint, has a pic of a kids playhouse on the front.
now that the base is laid out, we need to mix up the splatter paint. easiest way of doing this is to buy a can of spray paint in whatever color you choose, for me it was red, and then.........
buy these clear plastic containers from lowes, about 8 bucks for a pack of like 20? and get some paint brushes, 2 bucks a piece. turn the plastic container upside down and push it down onto the spray paint can. using the \container, push the can and spray paint onto the side of the container. tilt it a little so the paint will settle in the bottom of the container so you can dip your brush in it.
edit: just noticed, the can in the left of the picture is the Krylon Plastic Fusion paint I use. Thats the stuff you want to get. DISCLAIMER!!! this shit will not come off!
next is to sling away and make a mess, the messier the better.
thats what you'll get. if you want smaller more defined lines you can use smaller brushes and wave them over the piece your painting, youll get a line of paint effect more then a splatter.
if you have any questions on any of it lemme know, hope this helps you future splatter painters!
