A ram’s skull pirate flag was requested for an event I was organizing. It’s medium and heavy acrylic paint on a polyester microfibre sheet. (Bed linens are less expensive than fabric by the metre or yard… and are pre-hemmed!)
I kept the paint quite fluid and used the watercolour technique of working in layers I learned here at Foxsy, letting each dry before working on the next layer of paint. Everyone loved it at the event this weekend, but it didn’t pop visually as much as I’d hoped (see the WiP picture vs the selfie-station). I’ve brought it home to add a complementary-coloured outline to add depth, plus some less-subtle highlights where the fabric is thin, which should help when the flag isn’t in ideal lighting in the future.
