alittle of both, stencil and decal.
4 days work.. I did the control panel a few weeks ago.
this is not my pac man... I did this for a friend.
it sat for 3 years .. I got another harness wired in, power supply , monitor, coindoor. lighting, boardset and did a shitload of bodywork.
used high build primer on the edges..  he is still at his house this very second staring at it.
this is the 5th machine I brought back to life for him in October.
I got the crossbow running yesterday.

if you look close under pac mans feet you can see the edge of the decal. I color blended it into the paint of the cab.
it was a whole side art decal but it looks better if you just cut the graphics free and place them on.
That side art is 8 years old.
