Could do that, and no-one would be any the wiser.

More from the 'burg:

[andy_e]

There was a lot of random graffiti relating to israel etc. all over the place in Munich, I don't get why there's so much?

There's also some preety cool graffiti at Ostbahnhof, I should have taken a picture. And there was the wierd body/face thing on Thalkirchenerstrasse...

[Houdini]

Andy, München is the old Nazi heartland...

Still more from the 'burg:

















I'm thinking of taking up stencil-terror.

[andy_e]

Well yeah, but it seemed to be pro-israel? I can't remember now, I was too busy going to the climbing wall

[Houdini]

The last two from todays snapping:

Good idea

I've got all the kit I need for starting to make simple stencils now....just need time and ideas, but I like the idea of a challenge - but keep it classy folks

[andy_e]

Hmm... how about a stencil of Bubba and this: below it! You'd become an underground hero Bubba 

[Bubba]

I wish.

[Houdini]

ok - a challenge. i wanna see your best ukb related stencils up on the streets of europe.

A ha!  I thought about this last night.  You provide the design, I the paint and danger.  Just no swasticas/goose-stepping Wehrmacht SS-types/Zyklon-B related designs please. 

And Bubba would never get away with it on the Underground!

How about a stencil based on this?



Needs to go to some good!

[Houdini]

I vote for something involving muscle.


And a pair from Dr. Doolittle:

stencilling for dummies

[Houdini]

That's a good link. 

So I need laminated paper do I?  Guessing card will be enough for a simple monochrome stencil.

A very 1st stencil-effort, not at all bad:



Here's Jahnney!

[Bubba]

Stencil revolution has some good shit on it but that tutorial is way beyond beginner stuff shuuurly? I'll be starting with nice monochrome ones I think!

Is that your first effort houdi? pretty good if it was

You can get acetate sheeting off ebay - I got 50 sheets for a few quid. Bleeds much less than paper/card apparantly. I also got some fabric paint, a cutting mat and a very sharp stencil-knife.

Anyone know what the best sort of paint is for for walls?

[John Cooke]

Some good ones there!







Some controversial shit Banksy sprayed on the Israeli West Bank wall



and

[Houdini]

Bubba - not mine, but it was noted as someones first effort.  If you're going to start spraying then I think it's a good idea to start simple, and lots of practice on paper before the real thing.  I think the best stencil work I've seen is monochrome.

Banksys' ladder is fine.

[soapy]

Anyone know what the best sort of paint is for for walls?

a spray can(auto/hobby), held 8 to 12 " away from the wall, couple of thin passes(to limit bleed), try to avoid going outside the stencil (large border helps) unless that's a 'look' you're after - once you get the feel you should be able to stencil an A4 mono tag in about 15 seconds
