20 Mules Sign

I had an old piece of wood in the garage that I had cut into the shield shape a long time ago for a forgotten reason.




First Coat of paint

weathering the wood

second coat of paint, thinned
Working on the placement of the stencil, printed out slightly too large
after finding good placement, outlined with pencil and filled with black paint
stencil was cut for the skull and filled in with unthinned white paint
second side before filling in the details
both mules completed along with the stencil for the eyes and nose
The 20 was painted with stencil, the red star was drawn and painted by hand. 
the black parts of the mules were drybrushed with white paint to make them look older. 
















Skinned alive

The Ring and Roof Poles are now mated together. they're held together with Pins made from 1/2"
EMT Conduit with washers welded to the ends.

Currently the outer skin is being sewn. added two half-panels of yellow canvas as we came up a little short. The Yellow is a nice contrast color and shows our support of another tribe for Wasteland Weekend.
