Here is layers 1-4 of my latest effort. (The last 2 layers will be done soonish and painted this weekend)  And this is layers 1-3 using an 'overlay' app i found   (If you turn the overlay image into a negative, it gives a general idea of how it will look) |

There are 4 individual layers of stencils in the first pic (laid on top of each other).
The second pic was me messing around with an app i found to see what it would look like.
(Not sure if I've really answered your question there lol - if not, please feel free to call me useless lol)

Cheers, look forward to yours I paint each layer after cutting, I don't know how you hold off and resist  These ones sure do take a long time to cut, lost count of how many hours I spent on the lion. |

I can believe it, so much amazing detail – how long do they take to complete (roughly) So far I've spent roughly 25 hours cutting mine. The last layer will probably take another 5 or 6 |

I'm looking forward to it too lol. I'm never sure if my stencils will work or not until they're painted - so I'm always nervous before i paint.

Being bored and impatient at work - I'm hoping this will be roughly how it will turn out (using the overlay/negative app again here). Is it home time yet?  |
