No, you're not hallucinating, it's not déjá vu, and you are not having a stroke. It is another sequel to the already sequeled, Skull Master® series.
Petting Zoo - Everyone loves petting zoos. Birdies, snakes, fishies and goats are the kids favorites. Now visualize all the fun of the local petting zoo, but without the skin! Just imagine those eyes lighting up when you start airbrushing the skeletons of their favorite pets. Great for parties, body painting, and of course, wedding cakes. It just shows that when you run out of things to do with the human skull, you can always find others to make stencils of.
Evil Horde - These suckers are great for laying out some evil looking characters in a mural or just filling up some graphics with a little mayhem. I'm sure a nice circle template will be just right for you but please feel free to keep buying my stencils... just to be sure!
Buccaneer - For everyone out there that finds the word "Arg," "Avast," and "Me hearty" constantly popping up in their vocabulary, Buccaneer is for you. Eryol Flynn addicts everywhere will be thrashing each other to get to these babies. Whether you have always found the pirate style of art endearing, or were just traumatized as a child on Pirates of the Caribbean, this is your stencil. Buccaneer is excellent for use on everything from kustom graphics, to body art, to that paper hat you wear when you run through the office cubicles pillaging.
Voo Doo - For those of you that can't get enough of those old voo doo movies with that guy from the 7-up commercial or really, really miss the Oingo Boingo album covers. Voo Doo is your stencil. For your own protection, we left out the chicken foot, evil eye, or anything from the movie "The Believers," Voo Doo is at its best when used in background graphics, stylized patterning, or scaring your neighbors by airbrushing on their children.
Bonz II - Just like it's predecessor, Bonz II it is pretty much self explanatory. It's still just a bunch of bones. But they are new and improved bunch of bones, that are 50% larger! No special techniques, just bones... If the first Bonz confused you, things aren't gonna get any better from here.

If at first you don't succeed try, try, try, again; if you have succeeded, then you try even harder. We have proven this to be the case with the newest edition to the FX line of kustom Artool® Freehand® Airbrush Templates - FX3 is here! From the mind of Craig Fraser, and the work-release program of the criminally insane at Artool®, we have done it again: another 6 stencils with a virtual plethora of goodies to sate the twisted minds of the most normalcy challenged kustom painter. (I like that. I will have to use it in print sometime.) With this industry getting more and more crowded with kustom painters, as well as templates, we figured you wanted a few new ones to play with.
These aren't quick photoshopped pics grabbed from some public domain clip-art disk. All of the Artool Templates are hand drawn, and created as template systems. This insures you the best designs, and most original concepts out there. Be warned: FX3 is not for the weak of mind. Wait...okay, they can be used by anybody, but they are definitely not made out of your flimsy garden variety acetate. Since they are used by kustom painters they have to be designed to put up with all the chemicals and nuclear waste that we use. Combining laser-cut precision, with hand drawn creativity from the Artool Chemtox Lab, you are in for a treat with this new batch of paint tools!
So raid that piggy bank, go sofa diving and trade in that rare stamp collection because once again, it is time to go template shopping! - Craig Fraser
Glyphs - Hey, everyone loves kewl Hieroglyphics! We have not only made a functional Egyptian alphabet but we also made the kewlest looking symbols available. Now you can spell out to your clients what you really think about them on the side of their vehicle, and the only people who will know what you are saying have been dead for some time or own the same stencil. As the song says, "...Paint like an Egyptian."
Unchained - We've created some awesome repetitive chain designs that will please even the most extreme horror fan. Fat single-link, double-link, thrashed boat anchor, or twisted swingset - we've got your chain! Go the entire length of your ride with some serious chain work, or crisscross your bike tins. These chains are definitely off-the-hook and unchained!
The Web - How many times have you really wanted that kewl spiderweb effect but it was just too hard to do? Well, here is your Mulligan! The Artool Web Template can be used to complete the entire effect. With just a little sketch work you can Freehand that spiderweb, giving your kustom paintwork the ultra tattoo look you are shooting for. Heck, tattoo artists can even use this baby to make their lives easier too!
Blades - Pretty self-explanatory, huh? We decided to fill this sucker up with just about every blade in our arsenal, from classic razor blades to a nightmare collection of everything sharp and pointy. Excellent for graphic backgrounds, Blades is sure to be a favorite in our wedding-cake category, too!
Musika - For all you musicphiles out there, this baby is yours! Eine Kleine Nacht Musik is the inspiration for this stencil. Craig even got his wife Donna, the concert violinist, to do the arrangement. This stencil is killer for long side graphics, background patterns or airbrushing up that quartet music at the last minute.
Barby - No, this stencil is not full of dress-up dolls or nazi war criminals, but we will make all you barbed wire aficionados happy. Just think, now you can cover your favorite ride with your favorite barbed wire. Tight wrap, traditional western or penal colony concertina wire - whatever your sharp-wire fetish, we've got it all! Don't cut yourself unnecessarily trying to get that leading edge look. No pun intended!

The Artool® Skull Master Series® was created by Craig Fraser not to replace your creativity, but to spark it, by giving you a killer set of tools to help you make the finest skulls possible. Realistic fire is all the rage now, so why not realistic skulls!? Hence, the new series from Artool: Horror of Skullmaster. Don't worry, there are still plenty of horror movies for us to steal names from - so stay tuned!
Not only did we give you a more anatomically correct series of Calaveras, but we also gave you both the positive and negative skull templates as well as registration holes in each corner for perfect alignment. Used in conjunction, the Horror of Skullmaster will ensure the best-looking skulls you have ever done, and the freedom to finish them off in your own style. Just like the steak knives offered on those late-nite infomercials "...there's more!" Artool offers you Horror of Skull Master designs in three sizes. And what more could you ask for - except, maybe more stencils!? You can be sure we will continue to crank them out at the Artool Chemtox Lab, as long as you demand them. Keep the suggestions coming and we'll keep you supplied with the latest and best skin-challenged creations to ever be lazer-cut out of dead dinosaurs!
Heads-Up - You can't get anymore dead-on than the gaze of this skull. Pretty self explanatory, eh? Either just point-and-shoot, or use these templates as sketching tools to help you layout your Freehand masterpiece. Now don't expect any star eyes, flames or maltese crosses - it was tough enough to keep Craig anatomically correct on these babies. As far as we can tell, he didn't sneak anything in... we'll leave that to you.
The Scream - Or as we like to call it, "Not Quite Dead." This unique 3/4 view allows you to give a little extra attitude and depth to the classic side shot. Use this bad boy on the side of a tank or in conjunction with the other two for a nice pile of skulls. The Scream is handy for cranking-out medical illustrations or covers for metal bands; this stencil is sure to become one of your favorites!
Profile - The classic screamin' look is the image behind Profile. Artool has two other Skull Master profiles, but none with this much attention to detail or life-size scale. And this is sure to be a favorite for all the kustom chopper painters out there. With the ability to mask off and manipulate the jaw angle with Profile, both beginners and professionals alike will be painting some seriously evil, not to mention realistic, skulls this year!

For centuries artistic images from the Far East have influenced fellow artists all over the world. There are many different styles, from ancient traditional temple art to trendy tattoo designs, including images of the past, from story telling to creatures and icons from Japan's rich and fabled history. Many of these images from Asian cultures are now viewed in museums, galleries, tattoo shops and on kustom painted bikes and cars. Dennis Mathewson takes great pride in sharing his travels to the East with the Kanji Master Artool Freehand Airbrush Template Series®.
Artist Dennis Mathewson, of Cosmic Airbrush in Honolulu, Hawaii has over 35 years of kustom airbrushing and painting experience. When he's not painting, Dennis is writing, traveling, carving tikis and instructing at kustom painting workshops. Dennislove of Hawaii and it's Asian influences is shared with you in his new Kanji Master Series from Artool®.
Dragon (Ryu) - The Dragon (Kanji included) is designed to separate into two parts by cutting the small tabs which give you the essential dragon elements - the head, tail, feet and fire! Use the outside edges to create a coiling body by moving them around in circles while using the second part to create unique scale patterns.
Koi Fish - The Koi Fish template provides many choices. With any background color, airbrush the solid fish body to fill with matching line art. Add various surrounding outside water patterns with breaks, curls, bubbles or the small Koi. Then add the Kanji for "Koi" as a final touch!
Tsunami Wave (nami=wave) - This wave pattern allows you the ability to create a monster Japanese tidal wave (Tsunami), or just use it as a great background filler. The three parts of this template allow you to have all the positive and negative shapes. The Kanji for "Tsunami" is included.
Kanji Masks - This traditional Japanese theatrically-based template gives you a devil head filler and line art for any background, along with additional masks of Japan's spirit images such as Hanakobuakujo, Oobeshimi, Tengu, Hannya and other small Obake (ghost) images. The clouds and wind bands make for a great background, too! Plus, the Kanji for "Devil" is included.
Kanji Symbols - This template has a variety of Kanji characters in graduated sizes. Use them together or just as they are. The Kanjis supplied are: Strength or Power ( Chikara), Love (Ai), Good (Zen), Evil (Aku), Crazy (Kitigai) and Beauty (Bi).

Just to prove that there is no over-exploited segment of kustom painting that we won't ignore, we have now set our sites on the genre of the Kustom Kulture. The phrase was originally coined by the likes of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth and Robert Williams. The genre of the Kustom Kulture has to do with any artistic, cultural aspect of the Hot Rodder's lifestyle. Since the Hot Rod industry has been chock full of icons since day one, we decided to bring up a few kewl ones and produce stencils for your painting pleasure.
We didn't have to test these babies for years to find out if the designs are appealing. We incorporated recognized designs and icons that have been floating in and out of the palette of kustom painters for generations. Like all the stencils out of the Artool Chemtox Labs, these suckers have been made with the toughest solvent-proof material known to man or alien!
Now don't go thinking I went computer on you. While a computer and laser may produce these little gems, they were still drawn by hand with a half-dead Sharpy while watching SpongeBob (just like all the rest). This gives them that freehand "crook-edge" goodness that can only come from human imperfection and over-caffeination. So take that secret stash of money you have been saving for those unnecessary surgeries, and buy yourself a couple of stencils. You'll be a better human for it! Paint to live, live to stencil. - Craig Fraser
FLYBALLZ - Probably the most self-explanatory of the set: basically we cut you a whole passel of flying eyeballs! To make the eyeball freaks even happier, we included two big suckers, both good and evil. Hey, are these Von Dutch flying eyes?? NO! Go dabble in copyright infringement in your own spare time.
PISTONS N' PLUGS - Every self-respecting kustom painter is a bit of a motorhead. Now you can cover your kustom graphics with airbrushed versions of all those leftover parts you had when you put your bucket back together. And if you know nothing about cars, don't worry, airbrush with these and everyone will think you do. Pistons ...Plugs ...V-Eights ...Oh My!
LUCKY 7 - Luck is out there ...there is just no telling what kind. Now you can make your own luck (at least with an airbrush)! Now what do spider webs have to do with luck? Well ...nothing. But they are kewl, and it's my stencil, so I put them in! Officially, I have now decided that spider webs are lucky. Artool lays no claim to this stencil having special lucky powers or having allowed anyone to achieve god-like status in Vegas ...but then again, they have only just been released. Hmmm....
ACES N' EIGHTS - "The deadman's hand." Now you can hold the same hand that Wild Bill Hickok held before he was shot in the back. Hmmm ...bad analogy. But kewl designs, none the less! Since freehand airbrushing playing cards ranks right up there with counting dirt, this handy new stencil takes the tedium out of 52-card pickup. Fantastic for graphic backgrounds, and of course, wedding cakes! (Just in case you true believers thought we had forgotten our original mission statement.)
SACRED HEART - We cannot cover the whole gamut of the kustom kulture without a salute to the tattoo "flash" artists out there. The "Sacred Heart" gives you a nice selection of tattoo-style hearts. Makes ya wanna run out and get yourself sleeved! Go ahead and find the seamiest hole-in-the-wall tattoo parlor, and whip these out for the tattoer to use on you! Remember: he may beat you senseless, but he will respect your taste in art, and probably keep your stencils.
MARTINI TIME - You know, there are those that give up when the going gets tough. And there are some that give up when it's easy. Then there are those that choose to face the world with the simple statement: "It's Martini Time!" What do crowns and nautical stars have to do with martinis? Well, if you drink too much, you'll break your crown and see stars!

Welcome to the world of Deborah Mahan's Pin-Up Girlies®! Girlie Girl and Little Girlie are the first in a series of Pin-Up stencils from Artool® Products Company. They are perfect for airbrushing on motorcycles, a vehicle or your little brother. These stencils are designed so you can use them alone with great results, or with some freehand techniques. Each stencil in this set is precision-cut to work with each other. So, you can make your Girlies as realistic as you want! Here are several creative options you can choose from:
Girlie Girl and Little Girlie - The first stencil in the set is Girlie Girl and Little Girlie, parts A and B. Part A is designed to spray overall color, while you also have the option to airbrush bra and panties on your girlie. Part B can be used alone for some nice linework, or if you spray a light color over part A you will get registration marks so you can paint freehand techniques to make it more realistic. With some creative taping you can choose to give her more (or less) clothing, or she can hold her martini glass... plus, there is that sexy ankle bracelet!
Hot Rod Girlie - Hot Rod Girlie has some sizzling hot clothes, and a choice of ultra-sexy footwear. Her hose have a flame design, and there is a big ol' dice design for her to lean against. You can even match up the stencil with the others so it is just one more option for being creative!
Good and Goth Girlies - Then we have Good and Goth Girlies A and B. Part A is designed so you can spray overall color on the wings, halo, horns and/or tail. There are also tattoos! One has little hot flames which fits nicely on her arm, or wherever you decide. The other is a tribal design for her leg which fits great on either the thigh or calf, or all over, if you so desire. Then, there are three horns, because you get two different hair-styles in the set. Also, there are fingernails Ì´Ì£ but only five! Part B is the detailing for the three horns and the wing, which is where you will find the second hair-style, and has a top to use in place of the Girlie Girls top.
This new and exciting Pin-Up Girlies™ set will also work amazingly well with all of the Craig Fraser stencils. Who wouldn't like a beautiful girlie sitting on top of a nasty skull with some kewl flames!? Have some fun and watch for the next edition of Deborah Mahan's Pin-Up Girlies®!

Welcome to Deborah Mahan's Sailor Girlies® pin-up stencil set, it is the latest edition of Girlie Girls from Artool®. With the huge appeal of tattoos today, I thought it time to do a pin-up set styled after the "old skool" style Sailor Jerry tats. This style has always been one of my favorites, I was first introduce to them by my Uncle Joe, who was in the Navy, and had a Sailor Jerry hula girl on his arm. Norman Keith "Sailor Jerry" was the originator of these tattoos, and my Uncle had it done in Honolulu, Hawaii, by him.
Norman's style changed the look of the American tattoo with his Japanese influence, by creating motifs, instead of the usual hodge podge of unrelated images.
This set has 4 pieces that, like the other pin-up girlie stencils, can be mixed and matched to create several different combinations.
Sailor's Heart - First we have Sailor Girlie, she can be painted as is, in her sailor outfit and cute shorts, or you can use the alternate sailor pants. Also this panel has stars, and anchor and a heart, all in the Sailor Jerry style.
Fishy Girl - On the second panel is every sailor's dream Mermaid Girlie, she comes with 2 different tails to choose from, she can be painted au natural or she can wear a sea shell bra, and I have included a banner for your catchy messages.
Dance Tyme - Third, we have the Hula Girlie, with palm trees and leis you can use on her arms, legs, and around her neck.
Lucky Lady - And last of all we have Lucky Girlie, she comes sitting on the 8 ball, and has all the important lucky talismans.

Just when you finished your last therapy session... right when you thought you had seen enough skull stencils and everything was back to normal in the airbrush world... they're back...
Nite & Day - For all you Ying-Yang, sun and moon worshipping hippies out there, this skullmaster is for you. May all your Haight/Ashbury wishes, and peace march dreams come true. And of course for all you Jr. Anarchists out there, I threw in a flaming skull head so you wouldn't chuck this one. This sucker is great for graphic stenciling, T-shirts, body art, and of course like the original series, wedding cakes.
Devil or Angel - Well, what the heck else can I call it? It's a virtual smorgasbord of skull goodies. Some with horns and some with halos, some with fire, and some with wings. These little devils work great as background effects in graphics, and like Nite and Day, are a must for any body-art, or temp-tattoo freaks out there. These stylized skulls can be used "as is" for simple renderings, and patterns or can be elaboratedon with a little free-hand magic (a lovely addition on wedding cakes).
Bonz - This one is pretty much self-explanatory. It's a bunch of bones. We went to the streets and the common cry was for more bones. "Bones, bones, bones... and maybe a Martini carrying Skeleton thrown in for good measure!!!" Well, you asked for it, you got it! This is about the simplest of them all... just point your airbrush, pull the trigger, and bingo - a pile of skulls! Again, like the others, great for murals, body-art, and wedding cakes. If this one baffles you, there is nothing more I can do to help.
Menagerie - For those of you that became thoroughly obsessed with the original 3 Skullmasters, there were a few suggestions for additions and imporovements. Well, to prove that only about 80% of your requests fell on deaf ears, I went to work. After countless hours of watching T.V. and a few moments of inspiration, I came up with this! new goodies to work with the original set. Dice for eyes, head spikes, Maltese crosses, and devil horns, (and fo rthe intellectuals), new positive teeth stenciling as well as anatomically correct open mouth and improved negative space elements for the frontal, and side profile skull. (Rough Translation: New stuff, make skulls better.) There, I did it. Now leave me alone.

Tiki mania! The art of woodcarving has existed in Polynesia for centuries. As in other mythological religions, the ancient Polynesians believed that different elements were represented by different gods. These carvings, or tikis as we know them, resulted in thousands of different images. When westerners arrived in Polynesia to spread their religious beliefs, and to put a halt to any pagan worship, many tikis were destroyed as well as lost to termites and the elements. Only a few originals remain today.
The surfing rage of the 1960's brought the tiki back into popularity with their images portrayed on surfboards, clothing and fashioned jewelry. Tiki bars sprung up from Miami's Don the Beachcomber to California and Waikiki.
Today, since retro is kewl again, our Kustom Kulture has brought tikis back to be lighthearted and fun like the 60's. But the truth is, they never really left Hawaii!
Dennis Mathewson, of Honolulu, is an avid tiki carver. When he's not airbrushing, pinstriping or writing articles for various publications, he's traveling and instructing at kustom painting workshops. Dennis' love for tikis is shown here and shared with you in his latest creation, the Tiki Master Freehand Airbrush Template Series from Artool®.
Tribal Tiki - This template is designed to use as a "connect-the-puzzle" full-standing tiki. It works well on a background of any color. Added tribal patterns can help to frame your tiki or add a background pattern. With some fire and burning eyes, you'll be ready for tribal counsel!
Kona Tiki - In ancient Hawaiian times, tikis were the carvings made by selected Hawaiians in each village. Kona, located on the Big Island of Hawaii, has the most famous ones, and only a few still remain. On this Kona Tiki template, the largest tiki portrays the "Kona style." Using the tiki torch and adding some fire really sets the mood. The side patterns give you the ability to create tribal bands or backgrounds. Dark base colors can work very well with these tribal bands. "Hana Hou!"
Tiki Trouble - Kawabunga Dude! Surf's up with Tiki Trouble. This vintage style 60's surf tiki gives room to decorate your surf buggy, or just give a style to other groovy graphics. Hele' on to Honolulu by adding tribal backgrounds with the edges, or sail off into the sunset with the canoe paddle, maile leaf pattern or tiki fire. The real trouble will be where to end the pattern!
Tiki bar - The tiki bar is open, "suck 'em up!" Plenty of tikis can be gathered around using this linkable head and jaw tiki template. Mix and match the head and jaws to make one big ohana (family). Find the tiki that suits you and ghost him in the background using light amounts of color. Use some of the tiki bar patterns to fill graphics or stripes. Don't worry, they all start looking pretty good after a few "mai tais."
Totem Tiki - These totem style tikis have been seen in Hawaii for decades, filling walls in tiki bars and restaurants. Use them in different pupule (crazy) combinations to make your artwork look like a Polynesian tiki hut in a tropical setting. You can create an endless tower of tiki mania fit for any luau from Hanalei to Hanapepe. Other tribal bands of patterns can have multi-uses for graphics or backgrounds. Aloha!
Aloha Spirit - Hang loose with these Hawaiian elements of paradise. Fill backgrounds or graphics with Hawaiian images like pineapples, hula girls, honu (turtles), gecko lizards or ancient petroglyphs. And even men wear flowers in Hawaii! Use the floral pattern edges to make your design no ko oi (the best). Have fun building or filling in with these symbols of tiki craziness. Aloha oe!

It gives me great pleasure in sharing some of Hawaii's culture with other artists on around the globe. The tiki culture has definitely resurfaced since it's last rage in the 60's surfer-crazed era. The earliest origins of Polynesian tiki carving date back thousands of years ago to the islands of New Zealand, Samoa and Tahiti, to name a few, before the Hawaiian tikis came into existence. The Hawaiian style of tiki carving was originally performed by high ranking (alii) tribesmen from each of the Hawaiian Islands. All tikis were considered sacred, and were used in special ceremonies and temples. Very few original ancient tikis remain today and can be appreciated in museums, not only in Hawaii, but in other destinations as well.
In this Artool® Tiki Master II Series, not only do you get some great new tiki designs to work with, but you will also enjoy additional special images of Hawaii - like lei flowers and some lovely poses of hula maidens. What would paradise be without hula girls and flowers? Give your artwork a tropical twist, guaranteed to put you into the spirit of aloha!
Tropic Tribals - Ancient Hawaiian warriors wore many types of tribal tattoos given to them by Kahunas or chiefs. These tribal designs are completely unique with their divine tropical rainforest influences. Use them as is, or as a great ghost filler in a stripe or graphic pattern. In ancient Hawaiian tattooing, a sharpened bone was used to stab the ink into the warriors skin... yeouch! We suggest that you spray some paint with an airbrush!!!
Hula Spirit - Hula plays a huge part of the Hawaiian culture. Each hula dance tells a story, and each graceful move signifies an object or feeling. The days of old Hawaii are preserved through many generations of talented dancers keeping this ancient art form alive. The lovely hula maidens on this template will give you the opportunity to adorn your project with paradise. Diamond Head and palm trees take you right into Honolulu, throw in some ukuleles and you will be swaying, too!
Two Face Tiki - These traditional tiki heads are my version of comedy and tragedy with a Hawaiian flair. Solid fill images allow you to spray them on any background color. With the additional graphic elements like tears, stars and even evil teeth you can create numerous looks for this pupule (crazy) pair of tikis.
Tiki Joe - Tiki Joe is a profile tiki head which can be positioned on the side of any bike tank. Tiki Joe works well on any colored background, light or dark. Different head options like eyes, tongue, teeth and headdress can make him friend or foe!
Freakin' Tikis - This savage collection of tribal tiki confusion would lead you to think that I had a bad dream! This South Seas frenzy of faces allows you to spray in larger spaces by continuously linking them together side-by-side or top-to-bottom. Use these wild tikis to enchant your graphics with that primitive Polynesian style!
Leilani - It is a tradition in Hawaii to greet a visitor with a flower lei. The lei is given to men and women, young and old, to honor birthdays, graduations, anniversaries or just about any reason. This template is designed to use the hibiscus or plumeria alone. You can link the side flowers endlessly adding fern or leaf elements in between. Now, everyone can enjoy a lei without flying to Hawaii!

Steve Vandemon (yes, that IS his real name!) the artist and owner of Absolute Custom Paint in Anaheim, California, has been airbrushing for over 12 years. Along with Steve's numerous other talents as a crack-shot custom automotive artist, he is an accomplished sculptor, pin-striper, graphic designer and professional hard-rockin' bass player. He has appeared in countless (an unspecified large number!) publications throughout the world, as well as appearing on "Pimp My Ride", "Monster Garage", "Rides", "Chop/Cut Rebuild" AND has shown up on the cutting-room floor in the premiere of "Motorcycle Mania." Steve's artwork has also been exhibited at the prestigious Laguna Art Museum. With Vandemon's new ARTOOL TRIBAL MASTER SERIES® (which contains 42 separate templates!) you'll be able to easily capture the unique styles and intricate contours which he has perfected throughout his career.
TRIBALNOMETRY® - Since all of the TRIBALNOMETRY® shapes are linear they can be either applied to long 'n straight(er) areas, OR you can curve them around bike tanks, fenders and/or other irregularly shaped surfaces for masking out various tribal styles and create tribal bands to infinity! Plus, you'll be able to concoct more symmetrical centerpieces with your TRIBAL MASTERS® than you'll know what to do with!!!
CIRQUE DU TRIBLE'® - CIRQUE DU TRIBLE'® shapes work perfectly for a myriad of background images. Whichever one of the TRIBLE'®; shapes you use, they are great for shading or for creating extremely intricate symmetrical themes. Here are a couple of HOT tips: ghosting effects are incredibly kewl when used with pearl finishes, and you can achieve some radically prominent effects when spraying opaque or metallic layers. Other uses include layout applications and creating designs you can easily cut out with an art knife.
I prefer to use the positive TRIBALNOMETRY® or CIRQUE DU TRIBLE'® shapes for either background or layout applications; and I like using the negative cutouts for creating images on the fly!
Hey, have a good time with your ARTOOL TRIBAL MASTERS®...and try not to tie yourself up in knots! Have a blast and stay tuned for the next installment from the TRIBAL MASTER!!!
