Default Creativity....

So tonight is the night before my autocross and I never liked using masking tape to put numbers on my car, so I got a little bit creative... and then it got Yes this IS real spray paint. However, it is temporary spray paint Everything silver was painted by me

Teaser... (the rest of the daytime, in-action photos are at the bottom)

Obviously made stencils for the #'s. Just printed them out on glossy photo paper (thickest thing i had) and painted over them.

The Punisher:
Looked up picture online, dog has since ate my power cord to my printer, so i re-drew it on paper. Went out side, cut the eyes and the nose. Taped them to the car, made the teeth, and then with masking tape, made the outline and away I went
