Marty Belisle Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Do a search on the internet for Christmas coloring book pictures. Often the pictures are of simple designs and silhouettes that make it easy to recreate in a large format that can be cut out of coroplast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiplorenzo Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I am sooo going to date myself here... but also either a small inexpensive projector (to project the design onto it to cut around) or an old overhead projector (the kind we used in school with Dry erase and film.)

Dale W Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I am sooo going to date myself here... but also either a small inexpensive projector (to project the design onto it to cut around) or an old overhead projector (the kind we used in school with Dry erase and film.) If you can't find a projector, take your image and move it into a word document. Click on the image size and make it a 1:1 scale. Hit print. Depending on the size of the image, and if you cut it to size or not - minus excess background, it should print out on 81/2" x 11" paper (or whatever was in your printer). You will have several sheets. What I did was to tape them to the coro. It will look like a puzzle with some overlap. Depending on your printer, it might blow a few details out of whack. But with the puzzle in place, you can trace your drawing onto the coro by lifting the sheet and giving it a good "eyeball" to make sure it is how you want it. /it will get you through in a pinch.

Old Sarge Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 use coloring books for outlines.... for different size....Maybe take a string or small rope.. tie small knot in it for lights example 200 knots on string as long as you need it. lay it on your display and can move it around to find the shape and size you want. Example.. maybe a 3 or 4 meter long piece of string with 200 small knots even space on it to represent lights and follow your outline from coloring book. same with mouth shapes and eyes. have a idea how many lights you need for different parts that way and can use for other faces and parts to just by moving it to a different shape and still keep the light counts.
