well, i went to an art and crafts shop today
the lady was telling me about a sort of low adhesive contact that is used for stencils
low adhesive means it wont peel the paint, but from what your experience i guess masking tape works fine =]
thanks for that guys
ps: i'll try find that glue at a shop and check it out
dam... sounds really pricey...
EDIT:
i just prepped up an old shoe and painted a small section of it with some dodgey acrylic paint i found at home and it doesnt seem to turn out nice
is it because i havent sealed it with a matte varnish yet?
like you can clearly see the brush strokes.
or is it the paint?
i'll try get my hands on some of the angelus leather paint soon
after the boxing day sales - the day i wanna get a pair of cheap sneakers to work on
thanks again
edit: ok, i figured out the prob with the brush strokes
use smaller brushes!
