Boards On The Wall Thread

[breezy_again]

Does the series make up one big picture? If so, put them together.

If not, space them a few inches apart.

this is it

That's a cool idea, I might do that.
I have so many stickers....so fucking many stickers that I can never figure out anything to do with.
Cool stickers are a curse, it's like...I gotta put this on something really special, something I'll have for decades if not the rest of my life...guess it'll just sit in the sticker box for now for the next 15 years...

Okay hear me out. Take your favourite sticker. Trace it onto a cardboard. Cut that cardboard with a scissor. Put the sticker onto said cardboard. (Or use duct tape if you want to preserve the sticker) Put some griptape onto the back of the cardboard. And now you have a really cool coaster for the morning coffee.

Not the most innovative idea but maybe it is better as leaving the sticker in a shoe box for another 15 years?

I took your advice one step further HalfCab! I bought some precut coasters and Mod Podge glossy glue/finish from Michael's and did a test with some whatever stickers and watercolor paint. The test one came out amazing!! The Mod finish is grippy and waterproof so it works pretty dang well. Definitely going to make more with vintage stickers. Thanks for the idea inspo.

Memorializing my wall because I am moving and have to take it all down.
- Huge Parra fan and love what he has done with Tired. The Gonz is all time of course. Their line work has a special kind of harmony that flows well together.
- Welcome is Welcome but those spot foils are niiiice.
- Local Providence, RI brands Swan Common and Novo (RIP to both) mixed in with my all time favorite graphic from Theories, the downfall of the Knights Templar.

 
You’ve got some really cool boards hanging on your wall.
I’m also a fan of Parra’s board graphics. His color composition and line work are something special.
I’m not familiar with those two Providence brands- Novo and Swan Common, but I like the ones you have. A few that stand out to me are the yellow street scene, the mushroom one, and the shoeless man about to club the police officer.

Me. I probably have about 100 stickers sitting on top of a guitar amp in my guest room. Never to be stuck

Just got them hung up. I can’t stress enough how annoying it was to get the fishing wire the perfect length to line these up right. And it’s till not completely aligned, but good enough for now I guess

Christmas present to myself. The start of a new wall, trying to find my first 4 boards.

This reminds me, I’m also on the hunt for my very first pro deck I ever got when I was younger. If anyone has any leads for a reasonable price please let me know. It is the Alien Workshop Steve Berra “Berratrooper” deck.

Appreciate that, I did the yellow and mushroom boards. Can't remember the name of the artist who did the shoeless/police board but I know he did some graphics for Polar. He's got great style.

The board was a raffle prize when I ran an online skateshop in the early-mid 2000's. Haven't thought about that one in a while.

I have no idea…. But I think Trainwrecks and Donny’s were the first two Krooked guest boards respectively?

Trainwreck and Matt Rodriguez were the first two.


That Alien 91 wall is amazing!!

Ishod Skateshop day foil bmw deck and next to it is one of his foil twin tails which is the last deck I skated and coincidentally the deck I landed my first heelflip on. He’s not necessarily my favorite skater but he’s the dude who got me into skating (again). I’ll never not love his style on a board.

[Jim and Dan]

Picked up a couple of reissues off the epic Dwindle destruction sale, have them hanging up at work.

[JoseCansnake0]

Baby room wall. These were the kidiest boards I've got in my collection. Am probably going to skate the Ishod as soon as this car phase wears out, if ever.
