Layering Vinyl Decals Sucks!

I recently completed my largest and most challenging job to date. The task: cut and layer 3 wall decals for a little boys nursery. The theme: Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat. Now, i have put off doing layers for a while as I didn't think I was ready. But, this was my chance to finally dive right in, the money was right after all.

The first challenge was sizing each color element so that when applied everything would be proportionate. The second challenge was actually applying each layer onto the next and ending up with a single application, mult-layered decal. The application tape I was using is paper based and is fairly thick. I had to purchase a new plastic tape that was sturdier and transparent. See the examples below:

This new tape is amazing. It doesn't curl up at the edges and you can get multiple applications per sheet. After screaming and cursing and help from my girlfriend, I was able to successfully layer all three decals. They are pictured below.

After having many people rave about the Walking Dead, I was forced to check it out. In doing so, I started thinking about all things Zombie. This number will be coming out in May (apparently it's Zombie Awareness Month). I was surprised that something similar has not already been done. Though, I'm sure it has, but if it's not on the first two pages of my Google search then it must not exist. Right?
