Made some Fallout glasses

Aug 5, 2016 2:53 AM

Finished product plus a card I painted and a vault 111 patch I crossed stitched- pretty happy with the result

Here's the glasses, found at goodwill for shit it was 99 cents

Painting the red circle base for the logo, I used acrylic paints for the whole project.

Red bases finished on both glasses

Added a black edge to clean up the lines around the base

Made my own stencil out of paper but next time I would use vinyl and cut it out of that for cleaner edges

Here's my ratchet stencil all cut out

Logo before I cleaned it up

Logo after touching up the edges, not bad for a paper and Scotch tape stencil

I decided to add an apocalypse feel to the glasses. This picture is after some sanding, next time I would sand before paintings so the paint would stick to the glass better.

After sanding, I brushed some tan paint onto the glasses

I ran the glasses over a candle flame

After "smoking" the glasses, I sprayed them with some polyurethane

Here's the glasses finished, this picture doesn't show the nice gloss from the polyurethane but I'm happy with how they turned out

Very cool OP, unfortunately, you've also managed to make them look permanently dirty
