So I just did this now and as I was doing it, I thought it was pretty nifty, so I thought I would share the process. Originally I was creating a tiny stencil for my stickers, so I could just mass produce a bunch instead of inking each individual one with a brush (I find that indian ink never fades off the paper.)

My spray can was sputtering so It gave me a thought. I layed down all my stickers into a kind of messy pile so they were overlapping each other etc, and then I sprayed over them all gently.

When I moved them apart they had blank spots and speckled spots.

Originally it was just going to be a nifty texture and I would just do normal characters all over it. But then I had another thought.

Buildings! Wee. Heh heh. I wasn't quite sure whether I should put this in the resources section or something. But for now its here. whee

Update 9/9/10

Same green splatter effect, except on a slightly different sized sticker. I realized it worked perfectly as single characters. Then I was like "Hey, Zombies are this sickly green colour." And so now Aux is being invaded by zombies.

11/9/10 I think it looks better now that someones tried scratching him off. Looks like he has a reason for being in pain now. Lol.

I really like perspective of the buildings and how each one is different. Plus making them out of the white spots was pretty clever.

other than the perspective, I haven't seen anyone doing this kid of thing before, it's original and the best thing about it is the buildings form it's amazingly abstracted...

Cheers guys. The whole thing was pretty much a big random roll of the dice to see what would happen. The only way it could be better is if I could remember which markers don't leak off the paper when it gets weathered. My brush control is spastic at that scale. Lol.

Just as a conclusion to this set I posted a pic of one of them up. The rest I put up all around Taupo during one cold night when I didn't feel like sleeping. I never got photos of those ones in town since we left the next day and my camera sucks at night.

Love it.
But man; how can you not SIGN it?

As much as I love anonymous street art, I have this basic human need to want to claim everything that is mine. I would tag my TAGS if I could. xD It's just an "I DID THIS" factor.

Lol. I dunno ai. I used to all the time, when I was getting established. Around my hometown people who dig stickers and stuff probably know who I am still by the signature characters I still use. In Taupo they would have no idea though. But it doesn't bother me. One day they'l see something else I have done and figure out its the same style.
So in effect, my signature is my style. =D

I buy 'em from stationary stores. Freakin expensive, but lately my lady friend went and stole a couple rolls of labels from her work. Ha ha. So i'm set for quite a while. They go yellow though, but they last pretty good in the weather.

If you go to a post office and ask for labels for shipping, they should give it to you for FREE! If they ask any additional information, just say you're a business owner and whatever else they ask, make it sound legitimate. cool
