Both screens are now made and I am ready to print a bunch off tonight. Pretty damn pumped! Might even try to sell some of these fuckers online. There seems to be a niche for these kinds of posters, and I think I might give it a shot. Extra couple of bucks cant hurt.

Acetate sheet of my new print, resting on top of my old I Spit On Your Grave test print. Getting an idea of what the red ink will look like under the black. |
I really want to do some sort of screen print for the movie Zombie. I googled some images, which can be found below, and fucked around for a bit and came up with this design. I am kinda digging it. I really want to add more colour in there just cuz I can, and even the movie title, but one I took all that away I was left with this and I kinda like it. Who knows if I will like it tomorrow though. We will see.
UPDATE - I think I am really digging this design so I went ahead and printed out the acetate sheets in order to make some screens. I think this one looks ten times better than the I Spit On Your Grave poster, but we will see.
During the new years party at the Serpentine Pad, a couple people went to the basement to jam out some GBV tunes...or at least tried to.

I made some test prints, but I am noticing it is damn near impossible to line up the two colour designs just by eye. I think I am going to have to bust out the measuring tape and mark on the paper where the screen should go before I print. Hopefully this method will work fine. Off to get some paper!
I got some of the black printing done. I might go buy some more paper today and do a bunch more before I get the red print going. I hope it turns out well.
I tried to make some screens last night, but I fucked up bad. I think the year old photo emulsion isn't going to work. Going to buy some more at lunch. Second times a charm,
