The Dye A Day Thread!

[solomon.trenton]

Good stuff wombat! I almost did a Gators logo like that of your first post, I had the image on the vinyl and everything.
Then I got a plotter....and now a lot of those old logos I transfered are sitting useless. I didn't know there was such a place as Tuscaloosa, Florida

you could always send them to me

Any plans for X-Day this year?

Heheh you indeed are a familiar. We celebrate x-day eve here by going to the bars and laughing at the "pinks", knowing in the morning they will all be slaughtered!

A soft wizard will not take the dye the best.

I would contact any of the Dyers in the Guild of Dyers

Check the thread on which plastics take dye to figure out what disc to send

Did these 2 nights ago. Learned that re-masking large sections of a disc with electrical tape, is not a good idea :doh:

The orange disc was my first attempt at Dan Howards shaving cream marbling. This was left in dye 3-4 hours.

Yep, we learned another lesson, didn't we? Never thought about it creating stripes.

Did this one about a week ago, but just added the lettering yesterday. Don't know why the marbling looks blue, it's actually gray.

Great lettering on that ^. I've noticed black comes out purple in diluted or light dips, this could be the same kind of thing on the grey...

was the bags used for the marbling grey? I've done a marbling with purple dye and used a red bag and the end result was a red marbling

Sorry, what I meant was that the marbling looks blue in the pic, when actually it came out the exact gray that I was looking for. Here's the pic before I added the lettering.

I didn't use bags for this one. This was done with rice.

Could you post a closer pic of the marbling? Looks great from the distance in your pic, but wondering about up really close. Thanks

I don't have a good enough camera to get closer without it getting blurrier, but if you click on the pic, then click on it again, it will zoom in a little more.
