Neat! How long did it take you and how big is it? |

That is a panel inset on my metal garage door. Picture itself is little bigger than 8X10. I worked that drawing up in about an hour. Then shading for the stencil took a couple hours of trial and error to get it right in order to cut the dark sections out and keep the area continuous. Made a thick paper stencil out of it. All the shaded areas were cut out with an Exacto knife. That took several hours easy. Same with the lettering. Drew those up in Auto CAD and then printed and cut. Laid down the black first, over the orange, then the white letters. I have revised this with a two tone stencil set to give better definition. Also using a thicker plastic stencil material. Will post the revised version when I get it done.
