Not my favourite Floyd album, but it was the only Floyd related thing I could think to do that was relatively easy.
The background colours are a foam kneeling cushion that I put it on to take the photo.

Nice stuff Martinka. Not a band I could really get in to. Same with U2. Megabands I know, just not my cup of tea.

Yeah, I was listening to them long before they became a big stadium band and prefer everything that came before DSOTM. In fact my favourite album is 'Obscured By Clouds' which was a French movie soundtrack

Nice piece of cutting Martin. I think the backer really makes it pop (no pun intended).

I don't know what to do about the colours. They are there just because I put the ply on the seat for the photo. I know it looks good, but the album is about a very dark subject.
 
That was my original idea, Barry, but I'm gradually moving towards the idea of it being coloured. I reckon it will look better that way and it's going on my wall, not Roger's wall. :D
 
Colours...

Red or black, match the album cover or the film logo.

Or pop art style. Flat white board, then flick different bright colours onto it. Not much see through to need painting but may be easy and different.

Or thick clear perspex, depending on the location would be slightly backlit?

I really need to get my are into gear and try, I know someone's 50th who would love this in November!
 
Hmmm . . . lots of good ideas there.

You should be able to get it cut by November without too much trouble.

Go on, give it a go, and as you said "I know someone's 50th who would love this".

Forget cutting the grass and painting the fence (it's gonna rain over the weekend anyway) get out in the workshop and get cutting man :wink:

The film has it as red, and sure googling showed other reds, mainly to match the hammers, but tbh any bright colour will do. Be easy to test, just hold it over different colours till one shows it up good.

Black background looks good but for this sort of thing may suit something slightly different..

What about the rainbow, like on dsotm on the backer?
