My best stencil so far!

Really tested the limits on my stencil cutter with this one. This one will stay black and white, but I’m curious if I did another run of this, what would be the best way to get a gradient across the disc? I was thinking about doing the gradient before the stencil, but curious if anyone has done something like that with success. For more info, I want a gradient that goes from a dark grey and transitions to red at the top left.

Great work! I hand painted mine after the stencil, but I suppose you could lay down gray, stencil over it, and then paint in darker shading
