This marker comp was a real challenge for me because it seemed like everything went wrong. First I had problems with the bottom wording, the first time I did it it was off center and just looked horrible. I decided to make a new bottom and cut out the old one and glued in the new one. I also had problems with my car. It looks almost nothing like the car. I tried to show the highlights and lighten the windows but it all turned out dark. Thinking back on it I could have used colored pencil to fix the color problems, but I didn't want to sharpen my pencils, and my sharpener was in OP. The other major problem that I had was Rusty decided to change this comp mounting from the chili poster mounting. I thought the mount was going to be on white with a flush mount. I wanted to make sure before I glued and cut the comp out. As to my surprise the blog said to mount on black with a one inch border. Normally this wouldn't be a problem except for the fact that I had used all of my black foam core on the final printout of the chili poster. I decided that there had to be a way, without me having to run to Wal-mart at 10 pm, I could make the white illustration board black. First I tried to color it black with marker, when that didn't work I was thinking of paint and some other ways to do it. Then I remembered Gary showing us that you can ripe the backing off of foam core with out ruining the foam or the other side. So I got out my original car printout from earlier in the semester and ripped the back off of it. I then spray mounted the black back of the foam core onto the white illustration board and all my problems were fixed! I guess I learned to make sure you always have both black and white matting materials on hand and that Rusty likes to change the details to make sure people are paying attention.
