If you missed my last video, I went through the process of making some of that laser map art I see frequently. That process included the graphics design, all the way through the actual laser work. That video is here: • Lake Art, with LASERS!
In this video - I make some adjustments to the artwork so that it can be engraved onto these stainless steel tumblers, on a rotary attachment. As before, my graphics software of choice lately is Affinity Designer, which is an inexpensive alternative to adobe products. I go over some of the graphics changes I think are needed to get good results etching away the painted coverings of these tumblers, and show you my setup.
This concept of digital first projects, projects where you develop the underlying artwork first for a project, and then reuse that art in various other projects is something I am passionate about. I hope you find this video helpful. I am still very new to this laser thing - so if you have more experience I would REALLY love to here from you. Tips, critiques, whatever! And for what I have learned, I am happy to answer any questions! Thanks, and hit that like button and subscribe!
Cheers!
