Looking to have a large format print of the Mad Planets flyer printed up for my Outer Limits game room. I am talking 9 feet wide by 5 feet tall or so. Is this something I can have tiled and printed, or can it be done as one large print (reasonably) on a large format printer? I am doing this as wall paper. I am looking to spend as little as possible obviously. My other option is to use the flyer as a guide and paint a mural, which with 2 little kids could take me 3 years to complete. Thanks.
 
I said fuck it and started my own rendition in mural form. It's not exact but more of my version of the flyer with a few added (and subtracted) elements. I have a good start on it, just have to add more planets:

I may even throw the Starship Enterprise in there for fun.

That's really cool looking, Phet! It reminds me of the walls in this funky little sci-fi themed coffee house/deli I went into in Hollywood some years back.
 
Thanks guys. Here you can see what I am going to be doing with the arch around the viewing window. I have the arch completed on the adjacent wall:

Maybe I missed a thread where you rehabbed a Galaxian. Was that one of your projects? The paint looks perfect. Very clean.

On second look, though, I can't tell. Looks unfinished or ripped in the blue area - the artwork. Still, very clean.

I actually just cleaned it up inside and out, replaced the monitor and changed out the light bulbs. It needs new side art from Rich. The other side is actually in very nice shape but the side you see has a lot of blue and green ink missing. I think I may wanna swap the green for Blue T-molding too.
 
Thanks. I really should get an airbrush and stencils to do the remaining planets. They are tough to shade and backlight with a brush. I wish I had the time and talent to paint a Tie-fighter in a dogfight with the Enterprise in the right side background.
 
Anyone know where you can get a few yards of frisket or mylar or whatever the stencil makers use? Can you buy it at Michaels or crafts direct? Also, for using interior latex, is there an easy spray applicator one can purchase to use indoors with little or no overspray/ paint mist?

Now I wanna put most of the panets shown in the flyer in the mural, but they'll look a little different and the placement won't be exact. My wife asked that I leave out the astronauts as they look kinda gay (I agree):

What about making the astronauts smaller? The astronauts are a critical component of the game.

Do you have a Mad Planets now? I either missed that or forgot about it if you did.
