During our third week, our team was able to finalize the design and test out the colors that we received. This was evident by the completion of the stencils as well as the 15 inch by 20 inch image that shows the top and bottom designs as well as the perspective illustration. The perspective image is an approximation on how the actual bench may look like when it is completed.
In order to make the bench look like it has the design, we copied the finalized image and used the skew tool on Photoshop to make it fit the entire bench.
In order to spray without any paint leaking through, we first sprayed the back of the stencils with Supper 77 adhesive to make them stick. We did not spray paint the stencils right away. We had to let the adhesive dry first so that the stencils are only sticky enough to keep them in place. After we let the stencils dry, we then sprayed normally testing out the colors. Although there are only three colors above, we still have more to test. Additionally we may need to remake some of the stencils because if the templates are not cut cleanly, then the designs would not be as crisp when sprayed later on the actual bench.
