      that is absolutely stunning. so glad you captured this—it's totally unlike the stencils i see in the U.S. there's lots of high-end art stenciling, but this style is terrific.

      That's an amazing stencil. Absolutely stunning. Never seen anything so detailed or stylized before. Gorgeous and unique.

      Thanks, everyone. I thought this one was pretty special, too, and am still noticing different details every time I look at it.

      @ phreak125 and Shield: Thanks for the ID... I'll take a look for some more.

      @ nuruL H.: How LARGE were you thinking?!

      It is indeed Os Gemeos (Portuguese for "The Twins"). I'm pretty sure they don't use stencils, but rather airbrush. I could be wrong though. Great shot! Too bad it's a bit splattered by other paint.
