OK, so this entry gets special writing. Why you ask? Cause Im finished the board! I have pictures coming later when I get home (Im at work right now). Now heres how the process went.

Pre-Print
Wednesday night: Sent the file of my design to Will.
Thursday: Will throws the design into the shop - ready to pick up on Friday

Post-Print
Friday: Got the print out from Willy. Like I said before, it printed out prettynice and I was really, really happy with it being a sticker. And, what it worked out to be was about the same price for the sticker as it would have been to print it by the square foot and Kinkos. I think for glossy paper there its about 12.99/sq. foot (since they charge oversized).

Now, Originally I wasnt intending on sticking it to an actual skateboard. I figured that there would be too much risk doing that, just in case it didnt turn out primo. BUT the idea was always floating around in my mind.
Although, the more and more I thought about it, I think it would look pretty rad on a board, not only to hand in as a final piece, but something I can hang onto for a while. I also figured that it might be difficult to stick two pieces of foam core together to make it look cool just cause one sheet wouldnt be long enough. - soooo going with the skateboard was how it was done. So on top of getting my board sized sticker on, I got a board at Wal Mart..doop doop doop.


Saturday: So after work, this was the big day to get shit done with. let me tell you I was WORRIED cause it was a one shot deal. I didnt have any mroe board or stickers so if it turned out like shit,...then I was screwwwwed.

...Ill update later with pictures on how it went : :
