Hello, I am a former muralist so I could help you with just about anything in this subject.
First of all, unless you are experienced with oil based paint I would not reccomend them. Acrylic and latex paint have came a long way and the ability to clean with water is important and safe. I normally use Behr indoor/outdoor latex paint from Home Depot. It has a lifetime guarantee, so it will last a decade....or two.....or
Second, the use of a projector would help greatly. However I understand they can be tricky to get a hold of. What I would suggest is taking the drawing or picture you are working from to Kinkos and have them inlarge it to the size you want to paint it. It is not that much $. You can cut shapes out of it to use it as a template. Or you can rub pencil graphite on the back- tape the image to the wall- and trace over the lines. With the graphite rubbed on the back, your image will be transfered to the wall like carbon copy paper.
Well that should get you started....Let me know if you need more help or have any question.
