My first stencil attempt, by John on Dec 5, 2008 11:20:00 GMT 1, cut with a surgical scalpel, not scissors for cleaner lines.
Yeah, i quickly worked that out. I'll buy one for next time. Doing the right eye was a f**king pain!
Im guessing that when spraying the red flowers over the black i'll need to do a base coat of white? Im not sure how thick spray paint is..

My first stencil attempt, by hero on Dec 6, 2008 12:56:55 GMT 1, very nice....make sure you dont spray over the borders of the card/paper...maybe add a little more paper
do a test aswell because if its your first stencil and you havent tried spraying it you may hold the can too close and it will drip through
(what time are you going down...if i go i may bring down a few cans-even though im doing just paste ups)

My first stencil attempt, by schlomo on Dec 7, 2008 15:37:17 GMT 1, Easy John, just got back from POW mate (was there yesterday to paint and then went back this morn to have a proper look inside), saw your piece, thought it looked really good mate. Nice position as well, i ended up spraying on the back of the red food cart right near the entrance queue (loads of room still left there if anyone is thinking of hitting the street).
Good work mate, wicked job for a first time stencil...

My first stencil attempt, by idiom on Dec 8, 2008 18:52:33 GMT 1, Hi John
It looks good! I was the fella who gave you a hand holding the stencil while you were spraying... Good work - especially for a first piece.
