sketch out the idea |
On the days winding down
to winter break, Tom Banks, a custom paint instructor from Ohio Technical
College, visited LCCTC for a day to teach the students of Auto Body to do the
same: Custom Paint.

Finished product! |
Mr. Banks gave us a
project giving us all white painted boards, masking tape, and razor blades. He
then proceeded to talk us through painting a realistic American Flag.
Now, unless the average
person owns an airbrush gun, it is kind of impossible to do this at home, but
with our resources in Auto Body, it was simple!
Thanks for the lesson OTC! |
This fun little project was
really not that hard -- even without any airbrushing experience. It was a fun lesson,
and, according to Brittany Hawke, AB senior, it taught the students to “not to
give up on themselves -- even if it didn’t turn out exactly as imagined” or
something went wrong; the final product will still turn out pretty impressive.
