Description Not a good picture, so i'll have to take another one eventually, but this is a 7 foot tall Joker painted on plywood! I painted him for my mom to decorate the outside of our house for Halloween, and he did quite a good job.

note that the black background was added in digitally...the inside of my house in the background did not fit with his dark and scary presence. He is cut out to the shape of the Joker, so he looks real! XD

EXCEPT HE'S 7 FEET TALL!!

maybe 6 hours total.

WHOA. O_O That is incredible!! It's on plywood? Looks like you painted him on canvas! Seven feet tall, wow... That must have taken a lot of paint... And omg, the lighting you did is amazing!

omg thank you again!

yes, this took alot of paint, but not as much as you'd think, surprisingly. It was actually really fun because the joker has so few colors, and therefore i didn't have to mix as much as usually. his face was my favorite part to do. ^^

wooohoo! thank you! It was fun having him for halloween, i wish i lived in a neighborhood so more people could see him, tho. I live in the country where hardly anyone drives by. but at least one guy took a picture! ^^

oh, to paint it used waterproof acrylics on plywood. I bought them from a specialty paint shop...i'm not exactly sure what type of acrylics...oh wait! i used hues and mixed them with some sort of waterproof acrylic finish. something like that.

Your welcome! Aw thats a pitty I bet you'd have had loads of people taking pictures if you had more people driving by.If he'd been where I live I could garentee someone would have run off with him

Ah right!I think ive used something like that, although it may have been a fabric medium haha
