Salka Posted February 7, 2012 Hello all! I need your help with an art project. I'm making a little story using mixed media, and for the backgrounds and textures I'm looking for interesting documents and stuff - old newspaper clippings, old book pages, pages from old encyclopedias, old photos, maps, diagrams, blueprints, that sort of thing. So, I thought maybe you guys could have something to contribute - if you upload a photo or scan of something awesome, I will try to make it fit in somehow. I know you have interesting stuff, I just know it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thyroid Posted February 7, 2012 I could take a blurry snapshot of my memory box, if that counts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thyroid Posted February 7, 2012 Oh, I totally misread that. OK, um. I have some rare Arabic books I can scan some pages out of on the weekend, since that's when I have access to a scanner. Sound OK? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salka Posted February 7, 2012 Kroms, that sounds like exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for! FANKS! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

castorp Posted February 7, 2012 Not sure it's the right kind of old paper, but it is both old and paper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted February 8, 2012 Is that actual old paper? Because the print looks quite new. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
castorp Posted February 8, 2012 Yeah, it's all as old as it says. (So long as nobody went into the brewery-ruins and planted the stuff in the attic for us to find. You know, the long con.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
