Hi I am going to show you all hake to make a class a stencil using the gimp. If you don’t already have the gimp, you can get it by just searching it in google and go to their site and download it, if your having problems pm me.
Now first you need a pick a picture you want to turn into the how about the Dali Lama
Now open this picture in the gimp and turn it into grayscale
so it looks like this
Then you go to tolls then to color tools and to brightness contrast
And adjust them to about –75 and 75
Then go to select and click color select
And select the darkest part and go to new layer
And click background layer like in the picture
Then you have something like this so go to edit>fill with FG background color
And you’re done
Print it out and cut out the black part and do what ever you want with it.
