The project I'm tackling right now is a board with cutout faces for people to take photos with. Here are the pics of how it is going so far. And I have a reference photo to go from, so don't think I'm coming up with this material all on my own!
Step 1: We didn't have exact measurements, so I had to figure out proportions and measurements on my own while drawing the design on the board.
I think I more or less got it figured out.
Step 2: Hire someone that knows what they are doing to cut out the faces ;-) My dad broke out his old jigsaw and got the job done.
He looked so proper while doing it with his pinky sticking out. He broke it a few years back in a roping accident, so now it doesn't bend correctly.
He had to drill a hole first to be able to start with the jigsaw. Poor girl's forehead didn't stand a chance.
Step 3: Start with the paint. Thought I would start with the hat and jacket to see how things went.
Step 4: Move on to the pants. I'll have to choose what color I want to go with next now that I've finished with the gray. I'm just kind of playing it by ear.
