Description
This time I tried cutting out the stencil in a thin paper millboard sheet in an attempt to extend it's usable life. It did last longer and I think it can still be used but the results when painting with it weren't good enough. I have no idea what the exact problem was but the paint kept spraying under it every time I gave it a try. Perhaps it was the fact that because it was so rigid, it left a gap between it and the wall on some uneven areas.So my recommendation for anyone who's interested in making stencils is to stick with paper; accept the fact that stencils can be used only a certain number of times.
Or you could simply use acetates.

I used to have the "Complaint Department" grenade plaque with a "1" on the grenade pin. This brings back memories...

Because the lines are somewhat pointy it seems to be stronger and aggressive. I like it.

Nice! Can you make it a PNG image? So, you can put it into another image without the backround problem.

Thanks.
Well I have the vector file out of which I cut the stencil from. But I believe a stencil design is worth nothing until it gets sprayed!
