Why didn't you just draw it straight onto the wall, mask up the white bits and spray straight on? It would save you the whole stencil step.
Looking pretty sweet though!
I thought about just drawing the outline right on to the wall, but free handing a picture of this magnitude leaves room for many, many errors.
I find this method to be a little easier. Time consuming, but easier. My next step, which i will start in a few hours, will be to carefully cut away sections that i will spray black. Now, because most of the tank is black, some of the pieces that are white, i will cut off, and simply tape it too the wall. Kind of like a big puzzle. Then, when i have all of the cardboard cut, and applied to the wall perfectly, i will spray it down.
Stay tuned!
