I decided to start my man cave for my C5
I am not an artist by any means so this is the best I can do for a first time

It started out with the garage needing to be painted
Then of all people the wife said "a Corvette logo would look cool"

That's all it took

While at the school library with the grand kids for a juggling show I saw that they had a bunch of projectors for free
and then

💡

In the trunk one went
I took a transparency and traced out the logo on the sign that's in the bottom of the picture.

Somewhat centered it on the wall and while on I taped out the flags to be painted silver

Next I put up a piece of cardboard and traced out the Bow tie and the fleur de lis
Put cheap 2 sided tape on the underside and cut it out, then stuck it on the wall
And applied the red paint

Removed the tape

I then turned the projector back on and taped the rest of the lines, picture is before I finished all the lines (had to go to work)

Painted the rest black with a brush, waited for it to dry and you know the rest

Working on the Corvette letters to go above the logo, thinking
