Travis Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 My wife and I saw the Deadpool movie a few weeks back. We really enjoyed it, so I thought I'd make a Deadpool portrait. This was also the first project I did on my live stream. It was a lot of fun to cut out. Normally, I don't color my portraits. But this one cried out for some color. Since I stack cut a few of them, I decided to experiment with stain. I used an ebony stain and a red sienna stain from Minwax. The first one, I had trouble controlling the stain. It would bleed out into areas I didn't want. So, for the secone one, I used a woodburner to outline the areas of color I wanted to corral. That worked really well. The colors didn't bleed and I had much better control. vykus and neptun 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penquin Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Great work on the patterns and cuttings. The colors look nice. Seems like your cuttings will last longer than the movie. It has already come and gone, they sure pumped it up, didn't see it so I have no idea if it was good or bad. Thanks for showing us this work. jim penquin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky2 Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Travis, thanks for the tip on how to control the stain from running, it is very useful. I like the look of the colored one in the last picture, I don't think the eyes look quite right. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 my question would be........how is this any different from cutting a Donald Duck or a 49er logo ? I am confused here Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breadstick Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Great product. I'm looking at doing one myself, but not sure which pattern to do. Also, deadpool isn't going anywhere soon. All the nerds (like me) have been begging for a Deadpool movie for years and they're already planning the second, as well as other movie tie-ins.

heppnerguy Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 I have to admit, I have never heard of him until about a week ago. I assume he is a super hero of some kind..Looks like a take off of Spiderman and Captain America Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
