I looked at some more pictures of shield bugs and saw some with neat little striped edges and spikes, and then my one plain stencil felt inadequate so I made 3 more. I used awfully small bits of plastic though, so I taped extra around the edges afterwards to make sure the brush won't go over the edge while doing the feets and antennae.
