I used lasso and then an edge sharpen filter. I had it feathered but in order for the guy to cut the decal out he'll have to vectorize it. I learned my lesson with the Jeep Recovery Team decals, seeing as Luis spent more time trying to vectorize the damn thing than anything.

I'll have to try the Pen tool...

Tracing the shapes with the pen tool leaves them in a vector format, directly transferable to Illustrator. PM me or give me your AIM name and I'll share some tips I learned if you're interested.

Pretty good tutorial. Basically everything I would have said except it's visual.

Just sketched this up for the hell of it. If you like it I can transfer it to a stencil on the computer. I was bored and didn't have anything else to do.. .I was drawing my tattoo so I was in a drawing mood. lol

Is that just a picture of what you drew? Take it without the flash Kayla, it'll help keep from blowing the contrast out. If you want I can take that into Photoshop after and turn it into something cuttable
