Backdetail Work in Progress

Here is a little detail about the progress of painting this on the back of the vest with some acrylic paints.

- I started out with downloading the design (linkmaster101.deviantart.com/a….
- The design needed to be 40 x 40 cm when printed and I still don't know how to properly scale pictures with my printer I decided to make four saparate pictures being 30 x 20 cm each (roughly the size of a A4 paper).
- After printing them out I pasted them to a piece of carton (not to thick, just to give it some more backing).
- I roughly cut out the white stull.
- PICTURE 1: painted the white skull on using the template I just made.
- After that I roughly cut out the red parts. 
- PICTURE 2: I placed the template and the earlier cut out stull at the jacket (the skull now covers the white again) and painted the red colour onto the vest.
- After that I took the earlier cut out skull and cut out the black details. I also took the earlier cut out red parts and cut out the black parts here too.
- PICTURE 3: Using the templates I made some rough parts black again.
- I choose to work roughly at first so no parts of denim fabric would be seen between the red/white and black. This however did mean the result in PICTURE 3 wasn't really detailed.
- I used fineliners, markers and vilt pens to add the black coloured details (eyeballing them from the reference material).
- PICTURE 5: I dry brushed some of the skull black to shade some parts (also eyeballing from the reference picture. 
- I took som black paint again and tried to paint as much of the just added details black again (to give those detailed black parts the texture of the paints a bit) (no picture available).
