Step7: It’s time to fill in the lines of the megaphone, to accomplish this just follow the lines left by the stencil. While I have the black I add the name and the team name to the design. This is done using script let- ters unless requested otherwise.

Step8: The design is almost finished, just a little bit more; use golden yellow to fill in the megaphone. I use a little brown to add some shading to the megaphone to make

it a little more interesting. Finally I use the white to add some highlights to the letters. I almost always do this to make the letters pop; plus most customers expect it as part any airbrush T shirt design.

After you’ve done it a few times this design can be done in about 5 min. but if it takes you longer don’t worry about it. A design like this should sell for about $15 to $20 plus the cost of the tee. Like I said in the beginning, a lot of the time the whole squad will come in and get this, which will make for some easy and fast cash. That will do it for this issue, if you have an idea or a question you’d like to see me answer here in the magazine, e-mail me at askjammer@evenlink.com.

PAINTING A GLOW IN THE DARK TATTOO

by Neil Roth

Black light or UV reactive inks are great for Halloween parties and night clubs using black lights. In this little example I will be

using the Fluro UV inks from Airbrush Body Art and a stencil I cut to my own design.

The first thing we do is clean the arm to be painted with rub- bing alcohol to clean any oils from the skin.

We then place the stencil on the arm and we are ready to paint. Our first color is white and we give the stencil a com-

plete covering.

We then paint the UV green, making sure to get complete

and even coverage.

Our last step is to paint a black edge around the stencil design. Here is the finished tattoo and

it looks great in regular light.
