Today I stenciled the cabinet after quite a few hours of cutting the stencils by hand. It's not perfect but to the untrained eye it should look quite good when it's all back together.
The blue looks a little dark in the pics, it is probably a little darker than original but close enough.

I will finish the other side tomorrow and then put it back together.. in the mean time here is the latest pic.

Stencils were made from creating the artwork in Photoshop then printing out in banner form on multiple A4 pages then stuck together like a jigsaw. Using A3 Laminating pouches the stencils were traced and then cut by hand, using spray adhesive to tack to the cabinet and sprayed with Graffiti paint which is ideal for pinball cabinets due to the high pigmentation and range of colours. Look for Ironlak but there are others.

Stencil cost..

A3 Laminate Pouches - $9.95

Spray cans $8ea

Spray adhesive -$10

Total - $35.95



Cheers: Brettski... :)
