  Step 1

  one canvas.

  shake/stir the magnetic primer like mad.

  im using Marabu Magnetico "other brands are available

• 

  Step 2

  apply the magnetic primer to the whole of the canvas. you can test it as you go along but you're probly gunna need at least two or three coats.

• 

  Step 3

  ya need to leave it to dry (12-24 hours apparently, im not that patient, push ya luck, go on i dare ya)

  you'll know when its dry coz it wont be as sparkly

• 

  Step 4

  get ya roller and start applying ya paint, any acylic paint will do

• 

  Step 5

  you'll need a coupla coats or it'll look patchy like this, don't worry bout the join too much coz that'll be covered over anyway.

• 

  Step 6

  design ya monster, i had this in my sketch book and he seemed to fit what i was after

• 

  Step 7

  make a stencil of your design and lay it over the canvas, i use freezer paper for my stencils coz you can iron it in place, but you'll have to be careful with this.

• 

  Step 8

  once the paint is dry, paint over the stencil with blackboard paint (marabu again) again you'll need a coupla coats, make sure you protect the rest of your canvas though.

• 

  Step 9

  and ya done. get some chalk - draw

  i went over some patchy bits which are still wet in this pic...

  probly shoulda taken another pic of it dry before i gave it away

• 

  Step 10

  im already working on some more for my dawanda store,ya know, if ya wanna save yaself some time... ;)
