Why not just hand paint it again? It looks like there's plenty there to go off of. If you really want vinyl decals, it'd be very easy for a local sign shop draw it up and cut some out. Trace the outline in black dry erase marker, then put a sheet of computer paper over that and trace the black outline onto the paper. Take the paper in to a sign shop and they can make an exact replica. It involves scanning it and opening the file on a computer and creating a bitmap or svg file, then they just print it. It's pretty standard and should not be very expensive. Etsy would be a place to try too. Find someone who you can send your traced copy to and have them cut it. I could do it on my laser, but it'd be much easier and more economical to have a sign shop do it...
