I can tell you how Eric Henn does his designs on his famous building paintings.

http://www.erichennmurals.com/

He has painted large murals on a number of Oil Company tanks.
I had the pleasure of personally working with him when he did the one at our terminal.
He uses a projector and projects the image on the wall to get the basic image up. (Night work for outdoors).

If you know someone with a little artistic tallent you could get one of your favorite photos painted on the wall using this method.
Just a thought.

Here is a link to the one he painted in Findlay Ohio.

And the one here at Speedway.

This is one he did at our Refinery in Detroit.

Thanks everyone for the great ideas, i am hoping to find wallpaper murals that i can put up on a wall. I am hoping to find a black and white actual picture type of mural. Thanks

I got this one off of ebay...

How did you search for it on Ebay? It looks like there is nothing on right now. Thank you.

Check with a local sign shop that wraps delivery vans they may be able to make one

I REMEMBER BACK IN THE MID-70'S I BOUGHT A B&W MEGA MURAL OF A GUY SURFING ON A HUGE HAWAIIAN WAVE. I BELIEVE IT WAS 7' TALL AND 10' WIDE. IT COVERED MY ENTIRE BEDROOM WALL! LOL! I THINK IT COST LESS THAN $10 POSTAGE INCLUDED!

Just do a search on the net for "Wall Paper Mural".
The first hit I got had 4 color station murals.
And you can order the ones below in Grayscale. IE: B & W.
This site will also make one from a photo you submit too.
There were dozens of other sites listed will all different prices.
These 4 were on the first one that came up.

Sent you a PM.

I think the one I got from ebay was less than $100

Here is another place, murals can get pretty spendy.
